Thinking of buying the 2017 Audi A6?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2017 Audi A6 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. The 2017 Audi A6 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
A buyer's checks
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 20 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, steering and engine; have those parts checked.
Reading the spec sheet
The 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, paired with a 7-speed automatic, drives it. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The combined figure, 8.4 L/100 km, means roughly 25 litres for 300 km. Every 100 km costs about $14.70 in fuel at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,950 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
When the A6 makes sense
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
What the A6 is like
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. For luggage, 453 litres means a family's bags for a long weekend.
A longer test drive
Try the A6 on your commute, then decide. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the A6 for a week and see how it fits your life.
Picking a year and a trim
Within the 2017 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Running costs
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $147 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,950 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Talk to a person
