In 1994, the latest generation (C4) of the received a facelift and was renamed as the Audi A6, to fit in with Audi's new alphanumeric nomenclature (as the full-size had just been introduced).

The exterior was changed only slightly from the 'C4' Audi 100 – new front and rear lights, new radiator grille, similarly with chassis and engine and transmission choices. The United Kingdom was the first market to receive the A6, as stock of RHD Audi 100s had run out before expected, and before the rest of mainland Europe. The new engines for the A6 were 1.8-litre 20v, 2.0-litre 8v, 2.6-Litre 12V and 2.8-litre 30v petrol engines, with the 2.3-litre being dropped on most markets. For the, an inline four 1.9 (TDI), and the inline five (R5) 2.5 TDI (103 kilowatts (140 PS; 138 bhp)) were available. Until 1997, the A6 came with several different engines, two of them, and most of them available with Audi's -based permanent system. The A6 was available with saloon and Avant bodies.

C4 engines [ ] The C4 design was available with the following engines: engine configuration Max. Audi S6 Plus As a swan song to the C4 platform, an even more powerful, and very limited-production Audi S6 PLUS was briefly available to European customers. The S6 PLUS, developed by Audi's wholly owned high performance subsidiary,, was available for sale during the 1997 only (production from June 1996 to October 1997). A total of 952 cars were produced–855 Avant, and 97 saloons. It was powered by another version of the 32-valve (four valves per cylinder) 4.2-litre (parts code prefix: 077, identification code: AHK, later to be seen in the as AKH). Audi's performance division reworked key parts of the engine, increasing the motive power to 240 kilowatts (326 PS; 322 bhp).

It was only available with a revised six-speed (parts code prefix: 01E, identification code: DGU) ( – 1st: 3.500, 2nd: 1.889, 3rd: 1.320, 4th: 1.034, 5th: 0.857, 6th: 0.730), with a final drive ratio of 4.111. Further revisions were made to the suspension, brakes and wheels. The front were enlarged to 323 millimetres (12.7 in) in diameter by 30 mm (1.18 in) thick. Standard wheels were 8Jx17 'Avus' cast aluminium, with an optional 7Jx16 alloy wheel for use with winter tyres was also available.

With so much power on tap, the S6 Plus saloon could reach 100 kilometres per hour (62.1 mph) from a standstill in 5.6 seconds, with the Avant a tenth of a second slower at 5.7 seconds. Engine In February 1997, the introduction of a new A6 ( Typ 4B), based on a new design – the, with a new range of engines was announced and appeared in March at the 1997 Geneva Motor Show.

The redesigned body presented a modern design, with a fastback styling which set the trend for the Audi lineup, and gave the relatively large an shell with a low of 0.28. In 2000 and 2001, the 'C5' A6 was on magazine's Ten Best list.

This new A6 was available with a wide range of engines and configurations. The 30-valve 2.4- and 2.8-litre represented the bulk of the A6's development programme, with a multitude of other engine configurations available throughout the globe. As an alternative to the, a five-speed was also available. The C5 saloon variant arrived in mid-1997 in Europe, late 1997 in North America and Australia, and the Avant in 1998. In Canada, there was no Avant (Audi's name for an ) available at all in 1998 – Audi dropped the C4 Avant at the end of the 1997, and jumped straight to the C5 Avant in 1998 in conjunction with its release in the US. As a result of complying with, the North American models were equipped with front and rear bumpers that protruded several inches further than their European counterparts, with modified brackets and bumper suspension assemblies as result, and child-seat tethers for occupant safety. In compliance with Canadian law, Canadian models received as standard equipment.

North American C5 A6 models received the 2.8-litre, 30-valve V6 engine, the 2.7-litre V6 (also found in the, 250 PS (180 kW; 250 hp)), and the 4.2-litre 40-valve (300 PS (220 kW; 300 hp)); the two higher-spec. Engines were only offered with permanent. The V8 models arrived with significantly altered exterior body panels, with slightly more flared wheel arches (fenders), revised headlamps and grille design (before being introduced in 2002 to all other A6 models), larger wheels (8Jx17-inch), larger brakes and -based permanent as standard. In 2002, the A6 received a facelift, with revised headlight and grille design, exposed exhaust tips, and slight changes to accessory body moldings, and tail light colour from red to amber in North American models. A new host of engines were also introduced.

The 1.8-litre engine was deleted and replaced by a 2.0-litre powerplant with 96 kilowatts (131 PS; 129 bhp). The 1.9-litre (TDI) was tweaked to produce a maximum output of 96 kilowatts (131 PS; 129 bhp), and 310 newton metres (229 lbf⋅ft) of torque, receiving a six-speed in the process. The 2.4-litre V6 gained an extra 5 hp and better balancing, and the 2.8-litre V6 engine was replaced by a 3.0-litre engine with 162 kilowatts (220 PS; 217 bhp). The turbocharged 2.7-litre was revised, resulting in 184 kilowatts (250 PS; 247 bhp) and 330 newton metres (243 lbf⋅ft), controlled by standard quattro.

The V6 diesel was also slightly modified resulting in 120 kilowatts (163 PS; 161 bhp) (after the second modification) and 350 newton metres (258 lbf⋅ft). A new more powerful V6 diesel was also introduced with 132 kilowatts (179 PS; 177 bhp) and 370 newton metres (273 lbf⋅ft). The 4.2-litre V8 engine which arrived in 2001 remained unchanged. Also new was the, available in most models.

All models, except the 2.0-litre petrol and 1.9-litre TDI, were available with Audi's trademark four-wheel-drive system, quattro. A four-wheel-drive version of the Avant, with raised ground clearance and slightly altered styling was sold as the, Audi's first.

The second-generation A6 was on magazine's for 2000 and 2001. The updated 2005 A6 won the award for 2005. In addition, the facelifted third-generation A6 3.0T won two Car and Driver 'comparos' that pitted it against other sedans like BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, Jaguar XF, and Infinti M. Crash testing adult occupant: overall frontal offset crash test: Acceptable S6 and RS6 [ ]. Main article: In the late years of the A6 C5 design, an ultra-high-performance limited-run model was presented.

Weighing in excess of 1,840 kilograms (4,057 lb) and producing 331 kilowatts (450 PS; 444 bhp) and 560 newton metres (413 lbf⋅ft), the RS6 was capable of 0-100 kilometres per hour (62.1 mph) in 4.5 seconds, and on to 200 km/h (124.3 mph) in under 17 seconds. Initially available as only an Avant, a saloon variant was later added; the saloon version being the only version available to the North American market. The RS6 saloon finished first in a May 2003 comparison test against the BMW M5 (E39), Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG (W210), and Jaguar S-Type R. Interior (pre-facelift) Initial release [ ] The Typ 4F A6 was released in 2004.

Designed by Satoshi Wada in 2001, this model is visually an evolution of the C5, but was lengthened to 4,927 millimetres (194.0 in), and has the new Audi 'single-frame grille'. Like other contemporary Audis, the A6 has a 'tornado line' that runs from the front lights to the rear lights just below the body shoulders. The C6 iteration of the A6 features more sophisticated technology. Most notable is the (MMI), which is a system controlling in-car entertainment, satellite navigation, climate control, car settings such as and optional electronic accessories through a central screen interface.

This has the advantage of minimising the wealth of buttons normally found on a dashboard by replacing them with controls which operate multiple devices using the integrated display. On the engines, the new (FSI) direct injection technology was introduced. Although the line of engines represents the same progression as the former model, all engines were new.

The continues as an alternative for models, alongside a new six-speed available in the models. Audi's 'trademark' -based permanent four-wheel drive is available in most of the lineup, and standard in the most powerful models. Quattro is not available on the multitronic variants of the A6, but is available on the manual and tiptronic gear systems. Conversely the tiptronic system is not available on the front-wheel drive variants of the car. The six-speed manual gearbox is available with the 3.2-litre, but not for the North American market.

The Avant was previewd by the concept in 2001 and arrived during the course of 2005. The A6 allroad quattro made its debut in 2006, and as before, is an off-road ready version of the Avant, available with either a 2.7-litre V6 or 3.0-litre V6, or a 3.2-litre V6 or 4.2-litre V8. A6L (2005–) [ ] This is a long version of the A6 sedan for the Chinese market. The vehicle was unveiled in 2005 at the Shanghai Motor Show. The vehicles went on sale in the middle of 2005.

This model was called the Audi A6 allroad quattro (unlike the previous version, which was merely called Audi allroad quattro, with no reference to the A6 nomenclature). The Audi A6 allroad quattro again featured adaptive air suspension and permanent system. The A6 allroad was powered by a choice of two (FSI), a 3.2-litre V6 and a 4.2-litre V8, and two, a 180 PS (132 kW) 2.7 L and a 233 PS (171 kW) 3.0 L.

The gearbox is standard on the 4.2 V8 and the 2.7 TDI, but optional on the 3.2 FSI and 3.0 TDI. The 6-speed tiptronic transmission system converted high-torque engine power into both sporty performance and operating convenience, with crisp, fast gear changes. Advanced electronics respond efficiently to all driver input in both D (Drive) and S (Sport) programmes, helping to prevent unwanted upshifts when cornering. The five-mode air suspension can be raised by up to 60 mm (2.36 in) to provide of 185 mm (7.28 in) which is better than the older four-mode. The car featured a number of off-road styling cues including larger bumpers and sills.

In some European markets, this A6 allroad quattro was more expensive than the larger, but air suspension is an expensive option in the Q7. In its native country, Germany, it cost a few hundred Euros less than the Q7.

The A6's six (per side) front light-emitting diode (LED) daytime running lights (DRLs) are located within the main headlamp housing, similar to RS6's placement of the LEDs (ten per side), whereas on the S6 these front LEDs (five per side) are found adjacent to the fog lamps in the lower front bumper. The new front and rear fascias from RS6 would be used on the facelifted A6 and S6 lineup. Also updated for 2009 is the Quattro all-wheel drive setup, which is already found on the 2008 Audi A5 and 2008 Audi A4.
