What makes it iconic

The most technologically advanced A6 ever — dual touchscreens, 48V mild hybrid across the range, and Level 3 autonomous driving hardware.

History

The C8 A6 replaced all physical buttons with haptic touchscreens, creating an interior that divided opinion between futurists and tactile purists. The S6 controversially switched from a twin-turbo V8 to a V6 TDI in Europe.
