Audi A6 e-tron (2025) Review - Go home BMW and Mercedes?

[@GeeBeeMike]

I bought my Audi brand new in 2006. It’s an Audi A6 Le Mans Avant 3.0 TDi Quattro. It’s easily the best car I’ve ever had and I still drive it to this day. Apart from brakes and tyres it has cost me less than £2k in parts in all that time. Soon I will retire. Was considering a pre-loved Bentley or even a Wraith as a retirement present to me, but I realise electric is the future as much as it pains me to say that. I will never sell my trusty diesel, but if Audi really have electrified the A6 well, and the build quality and reliability is still as good or better than my 2006 model, then I could be tempted by one of these. Nice review.

Thank you for the review! I am quite attracted to this car as the interior looks nicer than the ID7. The price is also okish when compared to other VAG models such as the ID7 and the new A5. I would be happy with the entry level engine and trim (+a few optional extras). I live in the Netherlands so look forward to your test.

Currently, both the A6 Avant and ID7 Tourer are way up on my list at the moment. Both extremely capable, though of course the VW will be maybe £7.5-10k cheaper, so better-value!

[@WestonDeCohen]

The A6 Avant is the more expensive model than the Sportback and it is the, by far, the more attractive.

A6 Allroad?? nobody is saying anything about the Allroad.. do you know? did anybody ask the Audi press people??

[@ELO2795]

Hi. The A6 Allroad E-tron is coming on the market in 2026. Really looking forward to that 👍😎 The A6 E-tron Avant 2024/2025 is still a very good looking car.

The Avant is unlikely to be sold in North America, unless plans change.
