While Audi doesn’t offer quite the level of customization you’ll find in the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, the automaker’s A6 range can be a decent value for a luxury sedan.
We derive our 8 out of 10 rating from its generous standard equipment, a crystal clear 8.8-inch touchscreen, and standard active safety tech.
Audi’s 4-year/50,000-mile warranty is typical for a luxury brand.
Base sedans run $57,995 to start. The 6-cylinder engine is a reasonable $2,900 more, too.
The Premium Plus trim level ups the ante by another $2,900, bringing with it upgraded LED headlights, Bang & Olufsen audio, a surround-view camera system, adaptive cruise control, and a wireless charging pad.
Which Audi A6 should I buy?
While the sedan will be fine for many, we’d spend up for the A6 Allroad. It starts at $68,995 in Premium Plus trim, which means it’s about $3,200 more than a sedan. Oddly, Audi bundles adaptive cruise control in a $3,250 package that also includes cooled front seats, four-zone climate control, and a few other niceties.
If you’re OK with a small trunk, the S6 offers a lot of power for $74,795 to start. It’s outfitted about like a base A6 Allroad
How much is a fully loaded Audi A6?
The RS 6 Avant starts at $122,995. Adding adaptive dampers, adaptive cruise control, extended leather, a head-up display, massaging front seats, and a few other niceties pushes it to $130,000. You could also keep going with carbon ceramic brakes, blacked-out exterior trim, night vision, and a 19-speaker audio system for a grand total of nearly $160,000.
