Fatal crashes in the US

From 2020 to 2023, 119 A6 vehicles were involved in crashes on US public roads in which someone died, and 65 people died inside them. These are counts, not crash rates: a model with more cars on the road shows up more often, and people killed outside the vehicle are not counted here.

Real-world fuel consumption

8,182 Audi A6 cars registered in Europe between 2021 and 2024 report their fuel use through the on-board meter. Diesel hybrid versions average 6.9 l/100 km on the road, against 5.8 l/100 km in the official WLTP test — 20% more. Plug-in hybrids use 6.9 l/100 km against 1.3 l/100 km on paper, with 25% of their distance covered with the engine off.

Litres per 100 km: total fuel used divided by total distance driven, from the car's own fuel consumption meter (OBFCM), collected in 2024 by the manufacturers, mostly remotely, and by national authorities.

What it costs in fuel

On real-world figures the diesel hybrid Audi A6 uses 6.9 litres per 100 km, so 15,000 km a year takes about 1,030 litres: €2,342 at this week's average price in Germany, its largest market in Europe.
