Full-size sedan
The Audi A6 is a full-size sedan. Dimension-wise it is 4933mm in length, 1874mm in width and 1455mm in height. It sits on a wheelbase of 2912mm and has a ground clearance of 165mm. From the dimensions, it is evident how big the Audi A6 is. Being offered with these impressive dimensions give it a good amount of road presence and interior space.
Used luxury car – Good engine options
The 2018 Audi A6 comes with both petrol and diesel engine options. The petrol engine is a 1.8-litre turbocharged unit capable of producing 190bhp. The diesel engine, on the other hand, is a 2.0-litre unit capable of producing 189bhp & 400Nm of torque. Both engines only come with an automatic gearbox option. The diesel engine is a better buy considering its power and mileage.
Comfort
As mentioned above, the Audi A6 is a full-size sedan and offers a lot of space in the interiors. Due to the long wheelbase, it offers a good amount of leg space. The rear seat also offers great recline, under-thigh support and seat entertainment. It is an ideal car for chauffeur-driven buyers. It also comes with adaptive air suspension, which lets you select between Comfort, Sport and Dynamic mode.
Used luxury car – Should you buy it?
If you need a luxury car and that too at an affordable price, you can consider the Audi A6. It comes with a powerful engine & a decent amount of features. Also, considering the high depreciation of luxury cars, you can lowball the seller and try to bring down the price even further. But as with any second-hand car, it can be riddled with problems if not screened properly. Another important point is to save a decent amount for the maintenance of the car as it will be expensive.
