What the Critics Say

"The A6's interior design is sleek, modern, and nicely put together from excellent-quality materials. Soft leather adorns the seats and armrests, rich-looking wood and nickel-finished metal trim is tastefully applied to the dash and doors, and the majority of the A6's secondary controls-climate, drive mode, etc.-are handled by a large touch-sensitive panel underneath the main infotainment display." - Car and Driver
 
"The A6's interior is excellent; it sets Audi as a design leader among luxury brands. Material quality is top-notch and technology abounds; check out the dual-touchscreen infotainment or optional digital gauge display. At speed, the cabin is almost unnervingly quiet." - Motor Trend

What's New for 2026

Marking the debut of a major redesign, the Audi A6 returns for 2026 sporting an all-new look both inside and out. In terms of its exterior look, the A6 now more strongly aligns with the design language of the remainder of the Audi sedan model range. You’ll notice plenty of improvements in terms of both efficiency and power output from its now-standard 3.0-liter V6 engine. Tech improvements are highlighted by a new standard 11.9-inch driver display along with a massive new 14.5-inch touchscreen. Other updates found inside the cabin include a new 10.9-inch passenger display and improved head-up display, both of which are optional features. Concluding the list of changes are multiple new audio system choices along with updated interior ambient lighting signatures for the 2026 Audi A6.
