Audi A6 Allroad Quattro were designed

The infamous German Automaker Company Audi happens to be the creator of Audi A6 - one of the best executive cars ever built. It is still available in two different body styles as Avant and sedan/saloon. The various generations of A6 cars were made available in the market in two drives - the Four-Wheel drive System and Front-Wheel Drive System.

Audi Allroad Quattro and A6 Allroad Quattro were designed on the basis of second and third generations of A6. The C4 variant of Audi 100 was launched in the year 1994 followed by the introduction of the larger A8. The diesel engine of A6 produced 1.9 Turbocharged Direct Injection with a power of 138 bhp, whereas the petrol engine provided three options in 2.3, 2.8 and 1.8 L with a similar capability of 138 bhp.

Based on the performance, the newer C4 variant of Audi A6 was launched that included 4.2L V8 engine with 286 bhp. In the year 1997, Audi announced the launch of an advanced version of A6 car with a modified engine as well as other features. In the automobile market, this car gave a healthy competition to the famous Mercedes-Benz's E-class and BMW 5-series cars.

The biggest difference in exterior from stock A6 are chrome details on the body. Interior of Audi A6 Allroad quattro is an analogue to the stock A6. About its off road characteristics tells plastic caps that protects it from scratches. However, unlike the previous generation model, these plastic elements are painted and gives elegance to the car. Despite the relatively large potential maximum clearance (7,3 inches), Audi A6 Allroad quattro with its silhouette looks more like a traditional wagon.

Audi A6 Allroad quattro 3.2 FSI Tiptronic dynamics are good. 255 horsepower engine allows to make 0-60 in 7, 7 seconds and reach 150 miles an hour. If 255 horsepower is not enough, there are 4,2-liter V8 engine with 350 horsepower. There are also available two diesel engines - 2.7 with 170 hp and 3.0 with 233 hp.

The new Audi A6 Allroad quattro is developed on the base of current generation Audi A6 Avant, just like the first generation. From the stock A6 the difference is air suspension, different bumpers, different grill, quattro Four wheel drive and other elements already in the stock model.

First generation Audi A6 Allroad quattro appeared in 2000. It remained as the only car of this class. It was so, because with the same ideology made Subaru Outback and Volvo XC70 were not its direct competitors, since they were smaller and cheaper. At the time the Audi brand direct competitors BMW and Mercedes-Benz were more focused on the SUV's - X5 and ML. Soon Audi did the same with Q7. However Audi also made a new A6 Allroad quattro.
