The 2017 Audi S6: before you buy
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2017 Audi S6; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. The 2017 Audi S6 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
A buyer's checks
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. NHTSA has 5 owner complaints on file, mostly about engine, fuel/propulsion system and unknown or other.
What the specs mean
The 4.0L 8-cylinder turbo, paired with a 7-speed automatic, drives it. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
At 11.3 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 34 litres of fuel. At our price setting, it costs about $19.78 to drive 100 km. The EPA estimates US$3,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the S6
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
What to expect from the S6
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The trunk holds 453 litres by the EPA's count: a family's bags for a long weekend.
A longer test drive
Rent the S6 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Drive the S6 on your commute before you commit to it.
Picking a year and a trim
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Within the 2017 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
The cost of driving it
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $197.80 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
