Sydney, October 30, 2019 – The all-new generation Audi A6 has been crowned the 2020 Drive Large Luxury Car of the Year.
In summarising the decision, the Drive Car of the Year editorial team said, "our winner in this category brings with it style, performance and technology to boot.
"The all-new Audi A6 builds on an already strong range of Audi vehicles to deliver an incredible package that is quiet and comfortable to drive, but can turn into an engaging corner-eater at the drop of a hat.
"It's loaded with the latest technology, including haptic feedback integration and semi-autonomous steering … standard inclusions such as all-wheel drive and a high level of specification make it the best buy in this segment."
"We are delighted the all-new A6 Sedan has been recognised for its overall style, sophistication and outstanding value," said Paul Sansom, Managing Director of Audi Australia.
"This result is testament to the collaboration between our incredible designers and engineers at AUDI AG in Germany and our team here in Australia in making the new Audi A6 such a compelling local offer.
"We are sure our customers will love this amazing executive sedan as much as we do and the judges did."
The all-new Audi A6 Sedan has been completely redesigned from the ground up and Audi Australia Pty Ltd features new engines, as well as innovative connectivity and infotainment systems. It officially launched Audi connect plus in Australia, a revolutionary suite of features that offer a range of assistance, information, entertainment and security features.
The all-new Audi A6 Sedan has been on-sale in Australia since August.
