Im ok with the diesel, im not ok with the downgrade in power. Just 350 hp vs 420 in the old one is really disappointing. Its 70 down and that alone is a reason not to consider it in my book. The us 450 hp version is worthy of the s badge, this isnt. 100 hp is a big difference.

It amazes me how people are outraged at the decisions Audi has made with the performance cars when it was really obvious that it had to be influenced by the regulations. The regulations will eventually kill the classic performance cars altogether, so be happy with what they are giving for now. Not saying I am fan of diesel on a performance car, but I am sure even Audi would have given it a petrol in Europe if it hadn’t been for these regulations. Can’t blame Audi for that. On a positive note, I can vouch for the consumption figures. The new diesel engines, besides 3.0, are really impressive on the consumption. My A7 has the same 2.0 diesel as the A6, and I also get 6/7l per km.

Audi needs money for development of the future electric vehicles. That's why they are saving money from wherever they can. However the marketing move of the TDI Audi S6 maybe it's not so bad, europeans always were fans of powerful yet fuel efficient models. For a european, an S model with fuel consumption less than 10/100km is something quite amazing. Also, this S6 TDI concept is not totally new, BMW has the sport TDI versions from a while now and those models were quite popular in Europe. Also the S6 wants to offer sportiness but combined with smoothness and comfort, so the TDI engine fits really well there, combined with the quattro transmission; this is not a RWD BMW which is suppossed to shake you up during the acceleration; BMW has RWD for that whereas Audi has quattro which feels different, not worse but just different. I think the future sales numbers of the S4 and S6 TDI or any S TDI model could really surprise us.

Ah u mean if they will skip the S5 petrol in Europe for that model then as well? Since this is the case for the S4, we can expect that.

Or they put the 2.9 V6 also in the EU version for the S5 as a contrast to the S4 ... not sure yet, we ll keep u updated on that one!

Hearing the reasoning from Audi engineers, it makes sense that the new S models are diesel-powered in Europe. Nice job Audi, what a beautiful car!

I was for years a Smodel driver, S4 with 4.2 liter V8, followed by two S6 models. Unfortunately I have to swith now over to Mercedes where i can get a true sporty Avant with gazoline engine and not with those ridiculous fake exhaust pipes and artificially made engine sound in the car. This car is a real disgrace to Audi and completely disqualifies the Audi management who decided to destroy the Smodel reputation.

no idea why so much hate for S6 as a diesel.. noone fucking bought them in Europe previously, people either went for A6 or RS6. S6 was more for USA market and now it's perfect. Europeans love fast and economical diesels - got it! Americans love powerful petrol engines - got it! This is the perfect car, anyone who tries to say something about exhausts is just hunting for likes on KZbin, which are worthless - just like the comments themselves.

Does anyone know why some A6s have a side-hinged cover over the cup holders and some do not?

I am disappointed about the new trends in the automotive industry. Fake emissions, fake sounds, fake exhausts. What it will be fake next? It is a nice car overall but people will make a lot of jokes about it, it will be embarrassing, especially for a S6. For a manufacturer as Audi where there is so much engineering done, to come up with this is from my point of view disappointing. Except that, nice review as always :)

I bought an S6 back in 2017 (V8 and real exhaust pipes) Should I upgrade? Or stay with it? I expected more from this new S6, I just checked the RS6 and that is WOW, but this S6 mmm I don’t know 👀

As usual, a very comprehensive review by Thomas on a beautiful and practical car but reading all the comments, just about all of them are negative towards the Diesel on a S6 and those awful fake exhaust tips. Who are Audi trying to deceive with those exhaust tips? I am afraid it would be a deal breaker for me but at least you wouldn't have to clean the muck from them! In regard to the discussions between CO2 and NOx emissions, I understand that the extra taxes and charges for a high CO2 emissions could be substantial but with the bad press on diesel motors increasingly being restricted from city centres, why does Audi with their still controversial VW Group diesel motors, persist with this? Economy from these diesel motors can be quite incredible under the right conditions but it is interesting to read that the collection procedures for NOx are controversial both with the positioning of monitors and whether NOx is as poisonous as has been written in recent times. What is the future for diesel cars in Europe? BTW, it is very pleasing to observe the disciplined driving on the German Autobahnen.
