Too sleek to be called anything but Avant.With a 255 hp V6 with FSI Direct Injection, legendary quattro all-wheel drive and anoptional adaptive air suspension, the 2008 A6 Avant ranks high on substance alone.But when you add incomparable style to the equation, the choice is crystal clear.Heated front seats and a sunroof are standard on the Avant.

Opt for the Cold weather packageand you'll receive a ski sack, heated rear seats and a heated steering wheel.In addition to pinpoint handling, the 2008 A6 Avant offers optimal connectivity –to the car, to the road, to the outside world: Standard features such as Bluetooth interface, SIRIUS Satellite Radio, MMI and optional features such as Audi musicinterface for seamless iPod integration and an Audi navigation system with DVD.FPO of actual retouched image in place.Please review for correctness.Audi A6 Avant with optional equipment shown.

Exterior detailsSedan or Avant, every line on these cars stretches the eye.From the bold single-frame grille to thedynamic integration of the LED rearlights, a devotion to form and function.Seemingly moving forward even whenparked. But the real genius of these carsrests in every part and every process.Our aim: Cars that feel as if they’ve beenchiseled from a single piece of metal.Fiber-optic, Audi adaptive light, LED –we’ve long been fascinated withthe exquisite possibilities of light.Opting for Audi adaptive light helpsyou to see what’s just around thenext corner. And in cars this capable,that’s a good thing.And expands the imagination.On an Audi A6 Avant, a roof rack isnot an add-on. Not an option and notan afterthought. It’s integral, organic.And then it’s a work of art. Moreevidence of a devotion to both formand function.Audi’s new wind tunnel is perhapsthe most advanced on the planet.Beyond aerodynamic testing, thewind tunnel measures acoustic andthermodynamic variables withfanatical precision. It’s no wonderathletes have also used the facilityto perfect their techniques.At the rear, we aim to alert thosefollowing to your every move.Quicker to fire, standard LED rearlighting alerts those behind youto your intentions. And the fact thatLED lighting saves energy standsas a real plus in today's world.A stunning exterior is only as beautiful as thedetermination of those who conceive and craftevery part, every process.

This is one place where the beautyAudi A6 3.2 interior with optional equipment shown. of the exterior meets its match.

How to confirm a reputation for interior excellence.In the 2008 A6, it’s as easy as sitting in thedriver’s seat. Every dial, every control isjust where you want it to be. Every touch,a delight. It even smells right. We raised thecenter console to impart the sensation ofpiloting a sports car. From the intuitiveMMI operating system to dual-zone climatecontrols to an electromechanical parkingbrake, there’s genius at work here. And thenwe take it to the next level. As you can seefrom the screen below, your iPod offersmore than connectivity. It’s become a partof the car, thanks to the optional new Audimusic interface. A four-spoke multi-functionsteering wheel connects you both to theroad and to all that this car has to offer.Audi A6 4.2 interior shown.10

Interior detailsThe key to a more thoughtful driving experiencestarts with elevating the everyday into the extraordinary.MMI, our highly praised operating system, workswithin four primary domains – Information,Communication, Car Setup and Entertainment.The navigation system, for example, falls underInformation. You can choose a main function byselecting one of eight hard keys. Using the foursoft keys surrounding the central collector,choose from that category’s sub-menu. With adifferent screen color for each mode, you knowat a glance just where you are. To go back to theprevious menu, simply push the RETURN key.While we could have easily incorporateddual-zone climate controls within the MMIsystem, our research indicated that youwanted to keep climate separate. But wecouldn’t resist making it special. Pleasingto the touch and to the eye, all controlsare within easy reach. And don’t require aPh.D. to get the hang of how they all work.The standard telescopic arm andattachment belt in the Avant is a typicalAudi touch. An elegant solution tokeeping cargo safe and secure. It is,after all, a driver’s car. From an optionalski sack to rear seats that split and foldto accommodate your cargo, every A6acknowledges your need for versatility.A superior concept isn’t enough to make agreat car. True greatness rests in the details.12

An A6 with the S line interior package. Upping the ante without tipping your hand.Take a good long look at the steeringwheel. While the S line badge may catchyour eye, check out the grip-inspiringperforations. Its multi-functionalityholds considerable appeal, but it’s thepaddle shifters that have you dreamingof an open road.While every 2008 A6 receives the S lineexterior treatment with its discreetbadging, 18-inch five-arm alloy wheels,special front and rear bumpers andintegrated rear spoiler, only a few areso blessed inside. From S linealuminum door sills and Milano leatherupholstery (standard on 4.2 models)to Gray Birch decorative inlays,there’s no mistaking that you’re anS line-all-the-way type.To your way of thinking, a car is not anappliance. A simple tool to get fromPoint A to Point B. You demand more.More from yourself, more from yourcar. An Audi A6 with the S line interiorpackage conveys instantly that styleand substance are equally importantin your world. Just as in ours.When one dream comes true,imagine what’s next.Audi A6 3.2 interior with optional equipment shown.14

TechnologyThe heart of every A6: Effective, efficient performance. Responsive, responsible power.Audi introduced FSI Direct Injection at the2001 24 Hours of Le Mans. We not only wonthe race, a point was proven: Runninglonger and stronger between pit stops couldpay dividends on the road as well as theracetrack. The ability to direct an incrediblyprecise mixture of fuel and air directly intoeach cylinder results in more power withless fuel. Think of it as a bypass away fromconventional thinking.Available on 4.2 models as well as the Avant,adaptive air suspension increases the versatilityof the A6 almost exponentially. With fourdistinct settings, adaptive air suspension offersaerodynamic excellence at highway speedsor the ability to rise above the demands of arock-strewn rutted road. Not to mention makingthe car easier to load.Beyond beeps: A rearview camera puts theAudi parking system advanced a cut above.Part of the Technology package on 3.2models that also includes a voice controlsystem, Audi adaptive light, Advanced key,power tilt-and-telescoping steering columnand garage door opener (HomeLink ). On4.2 models, adaptive light, HomeLink andthe power steering column are all standard.Spend some quality time with the Specifications sectionof this brochure to discover all of the featuresand options available to A6 sedan and Avant drivers.20

They are not suitable for cold, snowy or icy weather conditions. If you drive under those circumstances, you should equip your vehicle with all-season or wintertires, which offer better traction under those conditions. We suggest you use the recommended winter or all-season tires specified for your car or its equivalent. These high-performance tires also have a lower aspect ratio that aids performance and handling;however, in order to avoid tire, rim or vehicle damage, it is important that the inflation pressure is regularly checked and maintained at recommended levels. Serious wheel and tire damage may occur if the vehicle is operated on rough or damaged roadsurfaces or upon encountering road debris and obstacles. Please also remember in making your selection that, while these tires deliver responsive handling, they may ride less comfortably and make more noise than other choices. Finally, these tires may wearmore quickly than other choices.
