    2026 Audi A6

    A Cd of just 0.23 will improve highway efficiency and lower interior noise to class leading levels.​

    Audi’s A6 will soon set the standard in design and aerodynamics in the full-size sedan segment. With a drag coefficient of 0.23 - the lowest for a combustion-engine production model in Audi history, possibly offered a 2.0L TFSI I4 mated to a 7-speed dual clutch, and an all-new 48V mild hybrid system (MHEV), it will provide owners with the superb efficiency. The inclusion of the (MHEV) for US buyers is only a possibility as I type. The 3.0L TFSI will continue to be the standard bearer.

    The MHEV system enables fully electric slow speed driving while adding up to an additional 24 HP and 170 lb-ft of torque while accelerating.

    The exterior is all new with modern sleek headlights and the large, low-positioned Singleframe grille. The front side air intakes create air curtains around the front tires, the front spoiler reduces front-axle lift and underbody panels create the sleekest and quietest A6 ever built.

    Like the front end, the elongated upward-sloping rear ends proportions look great while significantly reducing drag.

    On the chassis front, an all-new adaptive air suspension and all-wheel steering will improve the already legendary handling and driving comfort experience. Along with regulating body height, this air suspension system also offers an aerodynamic advantage at any speed. Compared to the standard suspension, the vehicle is 0.79 in lower in normal mode, another .39 in lower in both dynamic and efficiency modes.

    The optional all-wheel steering turns the rear wheels up to five degrees in the opposite direction to the front wheels at low speed and the same direction at medium and higher speeds.

    Sound insulation inside the A6 has lowered wind and road noise by up to 30 percent thanks to tightly sealed side windows, optimized door seals, and a new tailgate seal. The OEM tires are all equipped with foam inserts to reduce road noise further.

    A new panoramic glass roof spans almost the entire cockpit and can be dimmed to provide full glare protection via a button in the roof module.

    Regarding infotainment, a thin Audi MMI panoramic OLED display has a curved design. It consists of the Audi virtual cockpit with an 11.9-inch driver display and the 14.5-inch central display. Audi complements the digital stage for the front passengers with an optional 10.9-inch front passenger display allowing the front passenger to look up websites and stream video content without distracting the driver.

    The trunk has a 17.8 cu. ft. capacity and can be equipped with an optional electrically operated tailgate.

    The new A6 Sedan will be produced in Germany which makes it a target for US consumers. The U.S. launch of the all-new 2026 Audi A6 incl. full details will hopefully be revealed in the second half of this year.

    Hi Edwin:

    I now understand what you were referring too. I do not include all vehicles in the highlights, just those that were significant. Meaning I should have included the A6. ;)

    Regarding the A6's sales in Q1 of 2025, 1,866 were sold in the US, down 7.6% below the 2,020 sold in Q1 of 2024.
