BEST PERFORMANCE OF AUDI A6 SEDAN

 

quattro®

Permanent all-wheel drive systems are not created equal. And they certainly don’t perform that way, either. quattro is essentially a mechanical system devised around a torque-sensing, self-locking, center differential that shifts torque instantaneously to where it’s needed. This means quattro is adjusting power between front and rear axles more than 100 times a second, helping ensure torque is delivered to the wheels where traction exists. Under normal driving situations, quattro distributes the power between each axle by sending 40 percent to the front wheels and 60 percent to the rear wheels, enhancing the driving dynamics while helping maintain optimum control. Constantly assessing grip, quattro ensures the best possible combination of traction and handling, regardless of the road conditions.

3.0 TFSI® Supercharged Engine

The all-aluminum Audi 3.0 liter TFSI® V6 engine benefits from the combination of FSI direct injection and supercharging to create 300hp, 310 lb-ft. of torque and a 0 to 60 time of 5.9 seconds. The impressive torque is generated over a wide range, from 2500 to 5100 RPM, making full power usable at virtually any speed. The fourvane Roots-style supercharger makes the 3.0 liter V6 exceptional. The potent combination of FSI with supercharging allows Audi to achieve V8 power and torque with the efficiency of a V6.

Servotronic Steering

Servotronic® is speed-dependent power steering in which the amount of servo assist provided is dictated by road speed, providing even more comfort and convenience for the driver. The amount of power assist is greatest at low speeds, making it easier to maneuver the car. At higher speeds, an electronic-sensing system gradually reduces the level of power assist, creating a responsive, more dynamic steering feel.

Aluminum Suspension

With the finely tuned front suspension components secured to the subframe, the four-link front suspension increases ride quality by isolating road harshness and vibration from the cabin. The use of weightsaving aluminum for critical components helps reduce unsprung mass at each wheel, allowing the suspension to respond more rapidly. The net effect is a driving experience that is extremely responsive, smooth and predictable. It is handling that has become an Audi hallmark.
