The 2018 Audi A6 for buyers
No 2018 Audi A6 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Buying the 2018 Audi A6 is a big decision; here is the information we have.
What to check on the A6
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. 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. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
Under the hood
Its powertrain is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 25 litres, from its 8.3 L/100 km rating. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $145.30. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,950 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Size and space
As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is rated at 453 litres: a family's bags for a long weekend.
A good match for
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Try before you buy
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A week with the A6 answers more than any brochure. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Money matters
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $145.30 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular.
Picking a year and a trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Within the 2018 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Still deciding?
Send a request to rent the model you are thinking of buying.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2018 Audi A6 from us first.
