Overview

Audi's midsize luxury sedan, the 2025 A6 is an understated exemplar of its breed. Inside, its elegant but subtle exterior is an opulent and fastidiously detailed cabin that masterfully blends form and function. Beautifully stitched leather and rich metal and wood trim contrast with a pair of touchscreens featuring crisp graphics, and the knobs turn and buttons click with a refined feel that evinces a commitment to the small things. That same commitment is evident in the A6's polished driving dynamics, which are refined in every situation, competent and engaging.

Edmunds spotlight: An A6 for every garage

If the Audi A6 was the only car that existed, we would still see plenty of diversity on the road. The base 45 TFSI model gets an EPA-estimated 31 mpg on the highway, while the 55 TFSI gets from 0 to 60 mph in around 5 seconds flat. There's also the A6 Allroad, a lifted wagon cosplaying as a crossover, and the RS 6 Avant, a performance wagon with a 621-horsepower twin-turbocharged V8 cosplaying as a supercar. We review those models, as well as the mechanically similar A7, separately. And for 2025, there's now an electric Audi A6 e-tron too.

Competitors to consider

The obvious answers are the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, which predate the Audi and laid the groundwork for its existence. Depending on individual priorities and tastes, one of the Germans is likely to completely satisfy you as a buyer in this class. The Cadillac CT5 and Genesis G80 are strong competitors, although they lack the sense of polish and grace found in the others.

Which A6 does Edmunds recommend?

While the base four-cylinder is more than adequate, the added power of the 55 TFSI's turbocharged V6 better suits the A6's character. We'd take ours in the Premium Plus trim, which includes luxury must-haves like heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a Bang & Olufsen audio system.

2019 A6 is fun to drive: 1 year update

Mr. Mike, 04/14/2019

2019 Audi A6 3.0 TFSI Premium Plus quattro 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo gas/electric hybrid 7AM)

I wanted to update the review of my 2019 A6 premium plus with the 3.0L engine, sports suspension and adaptive cruise technology. The car remains the most fun to drive vehicle I’ve ever owned. The new MMI that appeared radical a year ago is now so familiar. I love the ability to toggle and change info on the screens. I couldn’t imagine going back to the old push knob that seems archaic …
