Audi has just revealed the next-generation A6 sedan, and it’s turning heads with its sleek new look and exciting upgrades. Taking cues from the stylish A7, the new A6 features a more refined shape and better aerodynamics.
The latest A6 boasts a drag coefficient of just 0.23, which is the best for any Audi sedan with a traditional internal combustion engine!
The launch is a testament to Audi’s commitment to blending the sophisticated charm of a sedan with the latest design language and cutting-edge technology.
In India, the ‘most aerodynamic Audi sedan ever’ is expected to be launched by the end of 2025 or next year.
Now, let’s get in the driving seat and take a closer look at this sleek and stylish new Audi!
The 2025 Audi A6: Key Specifications
The 2025 Audi A6 makes a strong statement with its high-tech, luxurious interior, which, of course, is an area where Audi has always excelled.
However, the new A6 feels more like an executive lounge on wheels. Thanks to its futuristic digital interfaces, elegant ambient lighting, and haptic-feedback controls.
But hey, there’s more. So, without further ado, let’s explore:
New Audi A6: Dimensions and Design
- Compared to its predecessor, the new Audi A6 is 60mm longer, stretching to 4,990 mm in length.
- While the wheel options range from 19 to 23 inches, the new Audi A6’s 2,927 mm wheelbase ensures rear passenger comfort and enhanced cabin space.
Powertrain and Performance
Suiting different driving preferences, the new Audi A6 offers a diverse engine lineup.
- The 2.0L TDI diesel variant with 48V mild-hybrid tech offers 204 bhp and 340 Nm of torque.
- Then comes the 3.0L V6 mild-hybrid petrol engine with Quattro all-wheel-drive, which churns out 357 bhp and 550 nm torque. This super performer boasts a top speed of 249 km/h and goes from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7 seconds.
- The 2.0L turbo-petrol engine, offering 198 bhp and 339 Nm torque, is front-wheel drive – ideal for those concerned with urban mobility.
2025 Audi A6: Interior and Tech
- This new Audi sedan comes with the 3D Bang & Olufsen sound system with the option of up to 20 speakers, making it a delight for those who love some music on the wheel (and who doesn’t, right?).
- The newly unveiled Audi A6 sedan boasts not one, not two, but three high-tech displays. These include the 11.9-inch digital instrument cluster, a 14.5-inch central infotainment screen, and an optional 10.9-inch front passenger display.
- A panoramic sunroof, 4-zone climate control, and an air quality package add to the ‘luxe factor’ of this sleek Audi sedan.
- Sound insulation inside the A6 Sedan has been improved by up to 30 per cent compared to its predecessor, and this increases driving comfort.
New Audi A6 Sedan: How does it feel on the wheel?
- The 2025 Audi A6 is built on the Premium Platform Combustion (PPC).
- The diesel variant offers a Quattro sport differential, while adaptive air suspension and all-wheel steering are optional. These features ensure seamless driving dynamics and confidence across different terrains.
The cabin of the Audi A6 sedan remains hushed and whisper-silent with its enhanced sound insulation.
Moreover, it offers a 492-litre boot with the Avant station wagon taking it to 503 litres. However, it can be expanded to 1,534 litres when the rear seats are down.
However, we’ll have to wait for this new Audi sedan to be launched in India to know which features will be made available here.
Having said that, Audi has been super-active in recent times in both global and Indian markets, and there’s more to come.
Let’s explore how things are panning out to be for ‘the four rings’ in the coming years.
Make Way for Audi: Global Market Expectations
In the global market, Audi has reiterated its commitment to sustainable mobility repeatedly over recent years. By the year 2027, Audi plans to have a fully electric vehicle in all of its segments.
The global launch of the Audi Q6 e-Tron (and the much-awaited 2025/26 India launch) was a testament to the brand’s goal of becoming the global leader in sustainable mobility.
However, the next few years will not be limited to just EVs for Audi. As Audi AG CEO Gernot Döllner announced, the company plans to launch up to 20 new models by the end of 2025.
The focus in 2025 is to renew the A6 and the Q3 but there’s more to come and fans of the German Automaker worldwide can expect a few surprises.
Indian Market Performance & Expectations
In the Indian luxury car market, Audi recorded a stellar performance in 2023. With an impressive 89% sales growth, ‘The Four Rings’ recorded their best year since 2015 during that year.
However, 2024 was not as impressive for the brand, with a slight decline in sales. But that hasn’t killed the optimism for Audi as they have predicted an 8-10% sales growth in India in 2025.
The German company’s optimism has a lot to do with the introduction of new models across segments. Having already launched the Audi Q7 and Audi Q8 facelifts, the company is also expected to launch the Audi Q6 e-Tron in India somewhere between 2025 and 2026.
The latter will strengthen Audi’s presence in the luxury EV market in India.
In addition to that, the company is also investing heavily in its pre-owned car segment, Audi Approved Plus.
That’s because this segment has seen robust growth recently, with a 25% growth in sales between January 2024 and March 2024.
