Audi has always conquered with its unusual design, reliability and build quality. The manufacturer's arsenal includes both ordinary cars for everyday driving, as well as SUVs and charged sports cars. One of the latest innovations officially presented on the automotive market is the Audi A6 Avant 2019 station wagon. Outwardly, the new A6 Avant 2019, even in the basic configuration, looks much stricter than the previous generation.

The car received more noticeable changes in the interior, in particular the location of the central display and a new digital instrument panel. Few innovations fell on the safety systems of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 and on the technical characteristics themselves. The new station wagon turned out to be an order of magnitude better than the previous generation, starting with the functionality and security systems in the basic configuration.

Exterior of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019-2020

At first glance, the external differences of the new generation Audi A6 Avant 2019 are almost imperceptible and it seems that they are practically nonexistent. On the other hand, if you look closely, the new 2019 Audi A6 Avant station wagon has become more strict and expressive. The designers made such a move through the use of new and modern technologies, which were previously installed only on the maximum configuration of cars.

In particular, starting with the basic configuration of the Audi A6 Avant 2019, new LED optics have been installed. Matrix optics with intelligent control system can be optionally added. Due to this technology, the system automatically recognizes oncoming traffic, thereby disabling certain elements of the matrix. The driver, in fact, does not see the difference in this, but oncoming traffic is dazzling. Another touch to the optics of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019 is LED running lights, the designers made them in the form of Thor's hammer, echoing the design of the new Volvo cars. The Audi designers themselves claim that the LED DRLs are made in an L-shaped style. Unlike the previous generation, the optics received stricter features and lines, which even more gave the car a formidable look.

Few changes were made to the front grille of the Audi A6 Avant 2019. In most trim levels it will be chrome with black background inserts. The dimensions of the grille were surprising, the designers stretched it to the full height of the front end of the station wagon, but only a small part from the top was taken away to supply air to the engine, the main airflow of the engine fell on the lower part of the radiator grill. The company logo and a couple of radars were placed on the top, another strip for fastening license plates, sensors and sensors is allotted a little lower.

The front bumper has a peculiar shape, depending on the configuration, it can be with additional air intakes or with LED fog lights. The bonnet of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019 is somewhat similar to the previous model, but with more pronounced lines.

Two rounded lines stretch from the radiator grille to the A-pillars, and a couple more are placed on the sides of the hood. The windshield of the Audi A6 Avant station wagon has practically not changed; in the basic configuration, there is now a heated glass in the area of ​​ u200b u200bthe wiper parking area.

On the side, the new 2019 Audi A6 Avant station wagon has become more modern. A curved line stretches from the front optics to the rear stops and is partially lost on the central part of the doors. On the lower part of the doors of the new station wagon, a recess appeared, replacing the moldings, as well as a sports-type skirt. For an additional fee, the buyer of the Audi A6 Avant is offered to install chrome moldings.

The upper side section of the Audi A6 Avant station wagon attracts no less attention. There are three large windows installed for better viewing, but the station wagon is still designed for two rows of seats. The glass is decorated with chrome edging around the glass, the central pillars are black. Similar to the moldings, the B-pillars are optionally available in chrome. The side mirrors of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 have been moved to the door part, while the mounting leg has become an order of magnitude smaller.

According to the standard, the mirrors are equipped with LED turn signal repeaters, electronic adjustment and automatic folding, for a fee or in top configurations, heating and memory for three settings modes will be installed. Many people say that the mirrors of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 have been reduced in size, but the view has improved significantly.

The body color of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019 station wagon took all the shades of the previous generation and was replenished with a couple of new ones:

• blue;
• white;
• the black;
• dark blue;
• blue;
• grey;
• red;
• silver;
• dark grey;
• coffee;
• beige;
• snow white.

According to company representatives, a couple of new shades may appear over time, but otherwise the list of shades will remain the same. In some cases or by special order, the body can be painted in an individual color, but the price will also be an order of magnitude higher than the usual maximum configuration of the Audi A6 Avant 2019.

If the front of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019 did not differ much from the previous generation, then at the back it is a completely new and charged car. Each trait speaks of the evil character of the station wagon. Particular attention is drawn to the rear LED optics with pronounced elements. The designers have successfully calculated the ratio of the dimensions and style of the Audi A6 Avant 2019, due to which most of the optics are installed on the body, and less on the trunk lid. In addition to the optics, a chrome line extends across the entire width, emphasizing the overall styling of the station wagon.

The trunk lid of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 is average in size, but at the same time it is quite convenient for loading bulky things. The designers have removed the large step by making a small notch in the rear bumper. The upper part of the lid, as before, is decorated with a sports spoiler and LED stop signal, but the trunk can be opened from the interior of the Audi A6 Avant, using the key fob or using sensors under the rear bumper.

Most of the changes were made to the rear bumper of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019. The designers made it in several steps, decorating the central part with a large black insert. On the sides of the insert are two chrome exhaust tips and two LED fog lights. This style speaks to the sportier and more evil character of the Audi A6 Avant 2019, rather than a family station wagon.

The final detail of the exterior of the new 2019 Audi A6 Avant is the roof. The manufacturer offers all roof options, from solid to panoramic. In accordance with the increase in equipment, the roof equipment will also change. The basic equipment of the 2019 Audi A6 Avant received a solid roof with two silver rails. Optionally, you can add a panoramic sunroof, but the maximum configuration will receive a panoramic roof with a sliding front part. The back of the roof was decorated with a shark fin antenna.

Externally, the new 2019 Audi A6 Avant station wagon has become an order of magnitude better than the previous generation. The functionality has significantly improved, and the body features speak of the formidable and confident character of the car.

The interior of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019-2020

The exterior of the new generation Audi A6 Avant was a march to the previous generation for many, but the interior of the station wagon is distinguished by already noticeable details. The differences are not only in comfort, but also in the functional part. The exit display of the multimedia system, which was previously at the top of the panel, has now been moved by the designers a little lower, making it stationary. Due to this change, the air ducts were moved over the main display.

The basis for the multimedia Audi A6 Avant is a 10.1 ″ HD touchscreen display. The standard operating system is Android Auto, and the Apple CarPlay system is optionally available. In addition to all the functionality, multimedia acts as a Wi-Fi access point, a mobile phone with a 4G network standard and a modem for Internet access.The minimalism of the new Audi A6 Avant is clearly visible in the cabin, many of the function buttons have been transferred to the touchscreen display.

The climate control panel of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 station wagon was also made on the basis of an 8.6 ″ color touchscreen display, including function buttons for controlling climate control functions. The central tunnel of the Audi A6 Avant station wagon also does not differ in a large number of buttons. There is a Start / Stop button in front, control of the stabilization system and a small selector.

The designers of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 took the main part of the central tunnel under the gear lever, the button for the electro-mechanical handbrake and the compartment for recharging behind a hidden panel. Among the chargers you can find a USB port, Qi wireless charging and a standard one from 12V.

The central tunnel of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 ends with a large armrest with a spacious compartment. Depending on the wishes of the buyer, the armrest can be equipped with a cooling system for drinks or a deep compartment for small things. On the back, the armrest of the Audi A6 Avant was equipped with two air ducts, a climate control panel for the second row of seats, and a small panel for recharging gadgets.

The seats of the new 2019 Audi A6 Avant station wagon have changed their style in comparison with the previous generation. Despite the expensive status and stuffing, in the basic configuration, the station wagon will receive power-operated seats, and in more expensive versions, there will be an electric seat adjustment. The front seats of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 received good lateral support and high head restraints with adjustable height and tilt angle. The lower part of the seats also got good lateral support and even a massage function for the top versions. Starting with the base 2019 Audi A6 Avant, the front seats have received heating and cooling, which was not previously the case.

The second row of seats of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 is designed to seat 3 passengers, each with a separate headrest. If you do not take into account the new upholstery and upholstery style, then the shape of the seat is practically the same as that of the older generation. The folding method has changed, now the proportion of the rear seats of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 is 40/20/40, previously it was 60/40. Regarding the folding system, it is usual, only in the maximum configuration of the Audi A6 Avant there will be electric folding of the rear seats.

The interior trim has also changed with the new interior of the 2019 Audi A6 Avant. The designers used only real Nappa leather as materials; if desired, you can add perforated leather inserts or Alcantara inserts. The interior colors of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 station wagon remain the same as in the previous generation:

1. the black;
2. brown;
3. white;
4. beige;
5. burgundy;
6. grey.

For a separate fee, the buyer of the Audi A6 Avant is offered other colors, but so far the manufacturer does not provide a list of them. Considering the same possibility in the previous generation, most likely these are several pairs of different shades that buyers most often ordered.

Another interior detail of the new 2019 Audi A6 Avant worth considering is the driver's seat. It was he who had the most changes in the cabin of the new generation. The dashboard is made quite unusual, now, starting from the basic configuration, the tidy is only digital, based on a large 12.3 ″ HD color display. On the sides of the display, two sensors are located - the fuel level and the engine temperature, as before they are not part of the display. A huge plus of such a dashboard in the Audi A6 Avant 2019 is that it is interactive and you can display, sort and arrange any necessary information. In addition to the factory preset settings, the driver can independently select and display the necessary information. Simultaneously display information on the display of the multimedia system. Behind the tidy of the Audi A6 Avant 2019, for the convenience of the driver, a color head-up display is located.

Quite good changes were made to the station wagon's steering wheel. As we remember, earlier the steering wheel of the Audi A6 consisted of two or three spokes, but now these are 4 horizontal spokes. The two upper ones are reserved for functional control buttons, and the lower ones are more decorative, although they will be very useful to just put your hands on during a long trip or when you are in a traffic jam.

The two lower needles were placed just below the horn, calculating the most convenient position of the hands and the angle of inclination. The steering wheel of the Audi A6 Avant 2019, as before, can be adjusted in height and depth using an electric drive. Regardless of the configuration, behind the wheel, they placed switches for light and security systems, as well as a pair of paddles for shifting gears.

The interior of the new 2019 Audi A6 Avant station wagon has become an order of magnitude better, the designers have minimized the number of buttons, replacing them with touch displays. Many control functions were also transferred to the multimedia display, in particular, the suspension control near the automatic transmission lever and other buttons for the Audi A6 Avant security systems disappeared. All of this can now be configured via the main display.

Little is known about the technical characteristics of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019 station wagon. The units of the new station wagon are the same as in the previous generation, a hybrid installation will also be available. The dimensions of the new items have changed minimally, but the luggage compartment has increased.

It should be borne in mind that a hybrid installation will be installed for each of the induced engines of the Audi A6 Avant 2019, operating from the 48V on-board network. According to preliminary data, a hybrid system paired with an engine will significantly save fuel, especially while driving around the city. On the other hand, it is not yet known how the system of automatic start and stop of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 engine will recommend itself, because in very hot conditions, these systems showed not the best results, and the engine wears out an order of magnitude faster.

Safety and comfort of the Audi A6 Avant 2019-2020

The manufacturer minimally copied the safety and comfort systems from the previous generation of the station wagon. We can say for sure that the set of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019 wagon will not differ from the new sedan. It is enough to look at the front grille of the novelty to understand that even the basic equipment of the Audi A6 Avant 2019-2020 station wagon has a good set. Among the main security systems are:

The list of safety systems of the new 2019 Audi A6 Avant station wagon will surprise, since the previous basic configurations were not so rich in choice. In more expensive configurations, the manufacturer offers to install a night vision system, various radars and sensors, as well as an autopilot. Due to modern technologies, the security systems of the new Audi A6 Avant 2019 station wagon will not only help the driver get out of an unpredictable situation, but can also take the lion's share of decisions, which will significantly protect the car's passengers.

In terms of comfort, the basic equipment of the Audi A6 Avant 2019 will not differ much from the top-end configuration, unless the manufacturer adds a couple of electric drive packages and several comfort systems (massage and control sensors). Otherwise, the new Audi A6 Avant comes close to the previously presented sedan Audi A8.
