For The A6 is refined and has a luxurious, spacious interior. It’s also well equipped and impressively clean and frugal

Against The A6 isn’t as rewarding to drive as a Jaguar XF and some of the controls are a little fiddly

A6 Our pick

Audi A6 Saloon 2.0 TDI SE 4dr

This will be one of the most popular A6 models and, with incredibly low CO2 emissions, top-notch interior quality and loads of kit, it’s not hard to see why.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

The A6 range offers something for just about any executive customer. The 2.0 TDI will be the big seller, because it combines tax-friendly emissions with all the image and kit of pricier models.

Those with richer tastes – and deeper pockets – will look to the six-cylinder, four-wheel-drive models, which have continent-crushing pace and composure.

Although SE trim provides loads of kit and a more forgiving ride, many people will be drawn to the sportier looks – and handling – of the S line models. We can see the appeal, but you pay the price both financially and in terms of ride comfort.

All versions are well equipped, but the extensive options list is likely to prove tempting, with luxuries such as cooled, massaging seats, an upgraded stereo, TV reception and a head-up display to choose from. The all-LED headlights look the business, too, but they’re not cheap, at nearly £3000.
