Zetland, May 29, 2020 – Audi Australia welcomes the latest incarnation of the Audi A6 allroad quattro; a rugged icon with sophisticated design credentials, exceptional comfort and a versatile flair for the great outdoors.

The all-new Audi A6 allroad quattro 45 TDI offers a rugged-yet sophisticated exterior design, combining the sleek attributes of the A6 Avant with sharp new features that provide an athletic off-road presence. The wide Singleframe grille, edged by arresting new Matrix LED headlights and dynamic LED rear lights create a futuristic design, complemented by aluminium styling elements. 20-inch Audi Sport alloy wheels feature as standard on the A6 allroad, alongside an electric tailgate with gesture control, illuminated door sill trims (with aluminium inlays) and door LEDs with 'allroad' projection that radiate a sense of ambience and ground visibility.

"The all-new A6 allroad quattro is our legendary all-rounder," said Shawn Ticehurst, Director of Product Planning & Pricing at Audi Australia.

"It has the unmistakable look of adventure and will continue to occupy a unique place in the premium segment: combining the strengths of both an Avant and an SUV. For some of our most loyal owners, the Audi A6 allroad quattro has always been 'just right' and the new generation delivers more in every area. It includes more than $15,000 worth of additional equipment, compared to its predecessor."
