For This supercharged model is comfortably the quickest Allroad, hitting 60mph in just over six seconds. And, like every model in the range, it has a very generous specification.

Against Never mind the performance, this petrol engine can't match the pull or the economy of the diesels. Plus, it's the most expensive model in the range.

Audi A6 Allroad 4x4

What Car? says

3 out of 5 stars

This is more expensive to buy and run than the diesel versions, so it's best avoided. The diesel versions make much more sensible buys.
