Oct. 16, 2011 - PRLog -- Audi have done it again with their new advancements and improvements to the Audi A6.   The Audi A6 was already a great car but in bringing out a new model they have continued in what they seem to be good at and improved  it and made it better.

One area that Audi have concentrated on is the greater use of aluminum in its production and body panels.   Audi has been using this space aged aluminum monocogue construction for some time,  but on this new model, they have used even more aluminum in the body panels to make this car one of the lightest in this mid sized executive class. With a lighter car and the technical advances that Audi have also introduced are assisting and improving the consumption and CO2 emissions and doing its bit in helping the environment by reducing its CO2 rate by 31g/km to 158g/km.  The S-Tronic twin clutch on the S line model swaps ratios according to speed and hunts for the most economic gear for the  driving situation.   This 2012 model also incorporates the stop start arrangement for driving in traffic which is another feature to assist and help with fuel consumption and the environment.  

The turbocharged V6 diesel will return you a consumption of 47 mpg, which for a car of this size, you may agree is quite impressive. It appears that the Audi A6 3.0 TDi is no slouch either getting you from 0-60mph in only 6.1 seconds and powering you onto a top speed of 155mph. If you opt for the s-line model,  this car sits 30 mm closer to the ground and will give the car better road holding than the SE model.  The Audi 3.0 TDI quattro has been described as whisper quiet and boasting a superb interior.  This car is giving a great performance which matches its economy.    

At http://www.audicarsforsale.com It is said that the inside of the Audi has also got even better.  Audi is known for a high standard of the interior quality, but this new model seems to have reached to even higher standards.  This new Audi A6 is 12 mm shorter than its predecessor, but you will never know it as the cabin has more leg, shoulder and headroom for the driver and its occupants.  This model also gives a better driving position than the older model along with its comfortable high backed and spacious seats.   The layout out of the dashboard and its instruments has been well thought out too. The dials give a crystal clear view in their curvy style dash.  Audi have said they have made the functions easy to use for the driver, using less buttons and the introduction of a touch pad control for the operation of sat- nav and other functions so the driver does not have to take their eyes off the road for safety reasons. However, it could be noted that some people may feel that the centre console is a little cluttered as it now includes other items such as the Start stop button, radio and information controls as well as the handbrake.

Another big safety feature that this new 2012 model is boasting is the new night vision sensor introduced to help save and reduce accidents. This system is located in the central display of the dash and has a range of 300m.  The display will show a black and white image and will pinpoint any pedestrians in the 300m range  and highlight them in yellow.  If the pedestrian becomes closer and a danger to the driver, they will be highlighted in red and an audio alert sound will be activated to alert the driver of their presence.  The A6 also includes the adaptive cruise control feature to assist the driver at driving at a designated set speed as well as the control in traffic speed and knowing when the vehicles in front are slowing down.

The boot of this 2012 model does not disappoint either, with the new Audi A6's large boot giving a vast and ample storage area which tunnels a long way back into the car.   Its boot is  full width with hooks and a security lip feature to ensure that the most available space is usable and your luggage is secure.

This new 2012  A6 seems to excel itself as a drivers car, full of comfort and sophistication as well as its improvements in technology, consumption and friendliness to the environment.
