Overview
In March 2023, Audi CEO Markus Duesmann announced that the A4 would be renamed the A5, while the A6 would become the A7, with the future A4 etron and A6 etron to be sold as electric vehicles only. In February 2025 this renaming was cancelled, therefore the internal combustion engine version is marketed as the sixth-generation A6. The sixth-generation A6 was officially unveiled on 4 March 2025, firstly as the Avant station wagon model. Orders for the A6 Avant began in March 2025 with deliveries set to commence in late May 2025. The sedan model was unveiled on 15 April 2025, with sales of the sedan model started in the same month.
Engines
All engines except for the 2.0 TFSI are equipped with the MHEV Plus mild hybrid system includes a 48-volt battery, belt-alternator starter, and an electric motor/generator. At full acceleration, the electric motor can provide an additional 24 PS and 230 Nm of torque, while also using the braking energy to recharge the small battery. According to Audi, this setup allows the A6 to drive solely on electric power during low-speed maneuvers.
