Audi A6 Avant history 

Audi has been making the A6 Avant since the first generation of A6 that launched in the mid-90s.  

> First-generation Audi A6 Avant C4 (1994-1997) - the birth of one of the most popular mile-munchers ever made, building on the success of the Audi 100 

> Fourth-generation Audi A6 Avant C7 (2011-2018) - its design is heavily influenced by the more luxurious A8, which is a good thing aiding the interior design and overall tech  

> Fifth-generation Audi Avant C8 (2018-present) - now offered as a mild hybrid, the latest iteration comes in many trims with lots of different features 

What features does the Audi A6 Avant have?

Modern versions of the Audi A6 Avant come very well equipped with a wide range features that make life with this practical Audi that much more enjoyable. 

Even the base ‘Sport’ model gets standard options such as a 10.1-inch central touchscreen (with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity), built-in sat-nav, heated leather seats, two-zone climate control, front and rear parking sensors, a digital gauge cluster and more. 

And if that’s not enough for you, higher specs get even more with larger alloy wheels, driver’s seat memory tech, sports suspension, a Bose sound system and more. 

Is the Audi A6 Avant reliable?

On the whole, Audis are some of the most reliable premium German cars money can buy. Not just because of the level of craftsmanship and engineering, but because of Audi’s incessant attention to detail. 

Like with all cars, you want to ensure your A6 Avant is serviced regularly and taken good care of. 

It’s worth bearing in mind Audis do cost a little more to run and maintain than cheaper, non-premium models, but keep on top of service intervals and your wallet will thank you.

How much does the Audi A6 Avant cost to run?

A used Audi A6 Avant can be had with a range of different engines from diesel and petrol to more efficient hybrid models. 

Our pick of the bunch would be the 2.0-litre diesel because it’s really strong, reliable and returns upwards of 62mpg. 

But if you’d rather have petrol then almost all of them are worth considering for their dependability and poise. But, if you want something with a little more poke, the S6 or even more powerful RS6. 

Who is the Audi A6 Avant suitable for?

A used Audi A6 Avant is the perfect family car. Whether you need the space for kids, dogs, suitcases or anything else, we don’t doubt it’ll be able to accommodate while being fun to drive too. 

Its main rivals include the Mercedes E-Class Estate, BMW 5 Series Touring and Volvo V90.
