Vorsprung durch Technik.

Three words that express

the very essence of Audi.

Vorsprung durch Technik isn’t

a slogan. It’s our way of seeing

the world. It is the driving

force behind our history of

innovation that continues into

the 21st century. Indeed, many

technologies that Audi pioneered

remain in our cars today. Some

are milestones in the history

of the motorcar. From our

beginnings in 1899, to the Auto

Union team’s Grand Prix successes

in the 1930s and our more recent

wins at Le Mans, we have always

been at the forefront of the

motor industry.

Vorsprung durch Technik makes

us who we are. To see more of its

influence, just read on.

The A6 allroad

It’s all in the name. The A6 allroad is fit for

all terrains – rugged or flat, town or country –

thanks partly to the extraordinary road-holding

of quattro® permanent all-wheel-drive. In the

same way that our hands adjust to whatever

we’re holding, quattro® continuously adapts

to suit the terrain. So it maintains the car’s

traction and stability, keeping you in control

on the road – and, of course, off it.

The Audi A6 allroad comes with a

comprehensive range of equipment as

standard, including Milano leather upholstery,

Bluetooth, adaptive air suspension and

cruise control. There’s also a wide selection

of optional features, such as HDD Satellite

Navigation, BOSE® sound system and the

Rear Seat Entertainment Package, all of which

you can choose when you place your order.

Efficiency

At Audi, doing less is something we’re trying

to do more of. We’re working to use less fuel,

release less CO

we’ve incorporated a number of more efficient

technologies into the Audi A6 allroad.

Recuperation

When a vehicle brakes, the discs convert the kinetic

energy into thermal energy, which is wasted as it

cannot be used. With a recuperation system, like

the one in the Audi A6 allroad, the kinetic energy

is converted into useful electrical energy. The way

it works is simple. While the car is coasting or

braking, the alternator voltage is raised above the

level of the basic electrical system, which enables

the alternator to generate electrical energy and

store it temporarily in the battery. When the vehicle

accelerates, this energy is used to relieve the load

on the alternator, resulting in a fuel saving of 3%.

2 and waste less energy. It’s why

TDI and FSI

Inside the engine of the Audi A6 allroad you’ll find

the same advanced fuel-injection technology that’s

driven us to eight Le Mans victories in the last ten

years. With TDI and FSI, fuel is injected directly

into the engine’s chambers so that combustion is

timed right down to the millisecond. As a result,

waste is minimised and you get the most from

every last drop of fuel.

Aerodynamics

A car’s shape can have a big impact on its

efficiency. It’s why we’ve worked to make

the A6 allroad as aerodynamic as possible,

including technology such as adaptive air

suspension that responds to changes in

speed. It means that the A6 allroad becomes

more aerodynamic at high speeds, while

still offering good ground clearance in

off-road situations.

Engines

Petrol

Supercharging. It’s the innovation that powered the legendary

Auto Union racers to win after win back in the 1930s, and it’s still

proving its worth today. It’s what enables the A6 allroad’s 3.0

TFSI engine to produce an exceptional 290PS of power, 420 Nm

of torque and better all-round performance than an equivalent

twin-turbo. The 3.0 TFSI also achieves lower fuel consumption

and more power than a conventional petrol engine. Fuel is

injected into each cylinder individually, at very high pressure,

which leads to greater efficiency. All while producing a lower

level of CO

3.0 TFSI already meets the proposed EU 5 emissions standards.

Diesel

There are two V6 diesel engines available in the A6 allroad: the

2.7 TDI and the 3.0 TDI. Their working principle is simple, yet

remarkably effective. A turbocharger supplies fresh air to the

engine, and immediately after compression an injector delivers

fuel into the combustion chambers at a very high pressure.

Advanced common-rail technology ensures that fuel is injected

into each cylinder individually, leading to a smoother, more

refined drive and impressive levels of torque. Of course, like its

FSI petrol counterpart, the TDI diesel engine also offers low fuel

consumption and CO

A6 allroad range now comply with the stringent EU 5 emissions

limits scheduled for 2010.

2 than you might expect, meaning that the A6 allroad

2 emissions. In fact, both TDI engines in the

Transmission

tiptronic

The automatic transmission available in the A6 allroad is known

as tiptronic. It’s a specially-developed 6-speed gearbox designed

to get the best from quattro® permanent all-wheel-drive. The

technology converts high-torque and engine power into both

sporty performance and operating convenience, with crisp,

fast gear changes, reduced weight and an optimised gearshift

strategy.

More spontaneous gear changes are a particular benefit,

especially when down-shifting. Both in the ‘D’ (Drive) and

‘S’ (Sport) programme, the advanced electronics used in

tiptronic respond efficiently to every driver input, helping

to prevent unwanted upshifts when cornering.

quattro

It’s the technology that’s given us the edge

on the rally circuit ever since it was first

introduced over 25 years ago, bringing victory

for the Audi quattro® on its very first outing.

It’s called quattro® permanent all-wheel-

drive. In this system, four permanently-

driven wheels deliver better acceleration,

road-holding and safety, while asymmetric-

dynamic torque distribution intelligently

controls the flow of power to the front and rear axles.

It means that the A6 allroad can ‘read’

the road, sensing changes in the surface

beneath the wheels and adjusting their grip

accordingly. So when conditions get a little

more demanding – in particular, when you

go off-road – quattro® adapts, putting all

the force of the A6 allroad’s engine precisely

where it’s needed to handle the change

in terrain.
