New Audi S6 e-Tron Avant Review: Something For Everyone

Uploaded 8 months ago by AutoTrader

Video Summary

The Audi S6 e-tron is a fast, practical wagon that doesn't force you to choose between pace and space, technology and driver involvement, or performance and efficiency. It is refreshing to see a wagon when most companies focus on crossovers or SUVs.

The S6 e-tron specs include two motors, 550 ps, and 855 newton meters. The 0-62 time is 3.9 seconds. The S6 and less powerful A6 are available in avant and fastback forms. The badge is upright, etched into the bonnet. Front end has two central Audi rings like eyes, a camera is a nose, and the lower portion is like a little smiley face.

The headlights are super thin DRLs. The silver plastic trim elements on the front can be finished in black for a masked effect. It is sitting on 245/40 R21 tires in the front and 235/35 R21 tires in the back. Rather than real mirrors, the car uses cameras, and a small button on the door handle opens the door. It has soft-close front and rear doors.

The interiors include a high-end sound system with four speakers in the headrests for a 3D sound. There are four USB ports and a wireless charging pad. The interior is very quiet because of its double glazing, acoustic glass.

The range is approximately 400 miles according to WLTP figures, but in real-world conditions, the range is closer to 300 miles. Charging speeds can be up to 270 kW; 10-80% in 21 minutes; add 310 kilometers in 10 minutes.

The steering is more engaging.

Batteries are low in the chassis.

The car understeers a bit if the driver goes too fast in a corner.

The car allows for increased regeneration.

It is well-rounded, ticking most of the desired boxes for a car.

The interior has the brand new Audi MMI system with three screens.

It has Chat GPT and other new apps. You can also get a soccer or baseball graphic theme, at a cost.
