OLd generation Allroad Quattro was very good car. I'm sure this one will be better than the old one. Car looks good on pics.

Stick with the regular Avant if you are going for looks - but the Allroad may rove useful for the accasional off-road foray :bah: - but i can't see it being a sales hit with all that horrendous body cladding (can they not cover it up?)

It doesn't look bad but I don't like that front grill with that chromed stripes.. They used it in the TT concept. I hope they won't use that grill in future models :roll:

Ummm... it's just too long for what they're thinking.

Honestly, an A4 Allroad Quattro would make more sense. It's just the right size, etc. This just doesn't seem to make sense.

The Allroad parts look almost exactly like the ones of the old model... Not a very nice car.

[HeilSvenska]

Cough...

I don't mind the grill at all, I like the look, but I don't like the chrome slots/slants in the grill.

[McLaren4eVa]

The new Audi A6 allroad quattro has a length of 4,934 millimetres, a wheelbase of 2,833 mm, a width of 1,862 mm and, depending on the setting of the adaptive air suspension, a height of 1,459 to 1,519 mm. Compared with its predecessor, the length has extended by 124 mm, the wheelbase by 76 mm and the width by 10 mm, enabling the driver and up to four passengers to enjoy lavish levels of spaciousness and seating comfort. The Audi A6 allroad quattro is available exclusively with the Avant body version. The load area – whose storage capacity can be extended from 565 up to 1,660 litres by folding down the backrests – incorporates two securing rails. A highly versatile range of luggage compartment options, including a load-securing set, is available, as is an automatically opening and closing tailgate. Particularly long items can easily be accommodated thanks to the load-through hatch including ski bag. The standard adaptive air suspension with its integrated self-levelling function ensures a comfortable ride in the A6 allroad quattro. The body has a composite construction featuring a high proportion of high-strength and ultra-high-strength steel panels, plus lightweight aluminium components which reduce weight primarily at the front end. In the event of an accident, passengers are protected by a network of precisely matched sections. Two front airbags, side airbags in the front (in the rear too as an option) and the sideguard head airbag system are all permanently on standby. Audi backguard reduces the consequences of a rear-end collision. The interior is distinguished by its exquisite finish and top levels of functionality. At the heart of the operating concept is the MMI terminal, which the driver can use to configure numerous convenience functions that can then be viewed on a monitor. Also on the list of standard equipment is an electromechanical parking brake which offers considerable practical benefits over conventional technology, not least because it opens up greater scope for the design of the centre console.

FSI petrol direct injection is a hallmark technology of the Audi brand. Following numerous victories in the Audi R8 Le Mans racing car, it has now been introduced on a broad scale in standard production vehicles too. The 3.2 FSI develops 188 kW (255 bhp). The V6 engine's maximum torque is 330 Nm, available at 3,250 rpm. The new 4.2 FSI has even more power at the ready. The V8 with direct injection musters up 257 kW (350 bhp) and 440 Nm, the latter being on tap at 3,500 rpm. Both V6 diesel engines combine superb efficiency with hefty pulling power and refined smoothness. The task of mixture preparation is handled by a latest-generation common rail system which propels the fuel into the combustion chambers at a pressure of up to 1,600 bar. The 2.7 TDI develops 132 kW (180 bhp) and 380 Nm. Its maximum torque is available from just 1,400 rpm and remains constant up to 3,300 rpm. The 3.0 TDI delivers 450 Nm of torque to the crankshaft between 1,400 and 3,250 rpm, while maximum output has been increased compared to the A6 Avant to 171 kW (233 bhp).

In Germany, the 3.2 FSI is priced at €50,600, the 2.7 TDI costs €47,600 and the 3.0 TDI €50,600
