The new 2019 Audi A6 Saloon - Car Tech
Audi is upgrading the A6, integrating many of the refinements and innovations that have been so widely acclaimed in the latest A8 luxury flagship into an allnew eighth generation executive saloon. Enveloped by a beautifully proportioned new body bearing the hallmarks of the contemporary Audi design language, the A6 makes considerable headway in virtually every area, from its advanced mild hybrid drivetrains and even sharper yet more comfortable suspension options to its sublime cabin comfort and exceptional new alldigital MMI touch response interface.
The natural language voice control turns the new Audi A6 into an intelligent dialogue partner and travel companion: It processes questions and commands in two ways, with onboard stored data and also – in conjunction with MMI navigation plus – with detailed knowledge from the cloud.
The driver controls the infotainment via the upper display, which measures 8.8 inches in standard form or 10.1 inches where the optional MMI navigation plus upgrade has been specified. The lower 8.6inch display, located in the console in the centre tunnel, is used for the climate control and for the convenience functions and text input. In addition, the headup display projects important information onto the windscreen.
The new Audi A6 offers an extensive range of connectivity solutions working in favour of safety, convenience and personalisation. Over and above the sophisticated MMI navigation system which features as standard, the optional MMI navigation plus – a media hub with a new design and high speed data transfer according to the LTE Advanced standard also offers a host of new navigation features. These include a selflearning function based on the driven routes, which generates intelligent search suggestions. Route guidance is provided online on the servers run by service provider HERE; these servers factor in the traffic situation in the entire region. If the flow of data is interrupted, the navigation switches to the online route guidance that runs in parallel. Updates are available as standard for the navigation map for three years.
MMI navigation plus is even more compelling with the optional addon modules, including two sound systems headed by the Bang & Olufsen Advanced Sound System delivering 3D sound. Telephony is also taken to a new level in relation to operation as well as sound and connection quality thanks to the Audi phone box with wireless charging capability.
Audi connect online services also provide the cartoX services traffic sign and hazard information. They use the swarm intelligence from the Audi fleet and network the Audi A6 with its environment. Shortly after launch, the onstreet parking service will be added, which makes looking for a parking space easier.
Using the myAudi app, owners of the new A6 can access the brand’s digital services via a smartphone.
As an option, the Audi connect key replaces the conventional vehicle key. It allows an Android smartphone to lock and unlock the car and start the engine. The owner can pass the access data onto five people or smartphones.
Even more comfort, poise and safety on long and short journeys – the new and further refined driver assistance systems in the latest A6 set new standards in the class. These include the parking pilot and the garage pilot, which will become available at a later date and will be capable of autonomously manoeuvring the car into and out of a parking space or garage.
The driver can get out of the car before activating and monitoring the process using the myAudi app on their smartphone. To do so, the driver must continuously hold down the relevant function key. The parking pilot and the garage pilot will form part of the forthcoming Parking pack. Two other packages will be available at launch the City assist package includes features such as the new crossing assist system, while the Tour package offers adaptive cruise assist, which supplements the adaptive cruise control by means of gentle steering intervention to keep the vehicle in lane, and the efficiency assist, which promotes an economical driving style.
The new Audi A6 will become available in the UK in the summer. UK pricing and specification will be confirmed nearer to launch.
