I compared a lot of cars in this budget range: bought this same A6 model and color. From my first test drive it instantly felt better, smoother, and easy to drive with power galore. It’s sporty yet comfy too. No complaints.
does it have adaptive dampers or steel springs? is adaptive chassis package going to be saved for s6? this car should have the option for air suspension for the price point..
We took a 2019 A6 for a test drive and were disappointed. First, there is nowhere to rest the driver’s left arm in a comfortable position within touching distance of the steering wheel. Makes for a problem on a long drive. Second, Audi does not have an Auto Brake Hold feature which is unbelievable on a luxury car like this. Third, with no track wheel to input into the electronic screens, everything is input via touch screen which is very distracting while driving. It’s like driving and trying to operate your iPad at the same time. A bad idea. Fourth, the optional 21” wheels are equipped with summer tires only meaning for those of us with winters, all season radials on a 20” rim are the only choices. What were Audi engineers thinking when they designed this otherwise beautiful looking car.?

raise your hand if you miss audi putting a drawer under your seat and rear fog lights 🙋🏻♂️ they really did the North American market dirt with the new generation audi’s lol
Excellent job describing the 2019 Audi A6 Prestige! I'm watching this nearly 3.5 years after it was produced as I'm buying one used. This gives me alot more confidence in my purchase and the value of the car. Thank you for putting in the effort!
John - did you purchase an Audi like this used? And has it been reliable so far? Curious as to what mileage and price you targeted as I too am in the market for a few year old A6 or E450.
@@Mark-eu6mc I did buy a 2019 usd with a little over 20K miles. It had a service package and I have had it services twice since I purhased it and those were free, no around 45K miles. I have only had to pay to add new tires. I also got the ABT upgrade chip that gives it a little over 400 hp pushing low 4s in 0-60 MPH. It's quick and fun to drive and I love the tech inside too! The prestige package is the way to go for sure!
@@johnvakidis4714 thanks John for the info. I know people on the forums go for an aftermarket warranty like Fidelity platinum as I’m iffy about audi reliability (coming from Toyota). Best of luck on yours and hope you enjoy it.
9:36 - as an Audi owner, I'm very disappointed with fake exhausts perpetuating now through the brand. People say they do it for aesthetics, but honestly they cheapen the look of the entire car for me.
I agree with you DashCam King. I'm also a proud owner of my2015 A8 3.0. Had the opportunity to purchase the new A8 but decided not to because of the cheapen look of the exhaust. A car valued at base level of $83,800.00 to have the exhaust tucked away.
totally agree, I'm driving the 2016 passat sel, the exhausts looks just like this one but they are functional, yes there are some carbon build up but in the winter they are "smoking"...I will just wait and see the next year model...
The S models post 2019 will have a smaller V6 turbocharged engine compared to the 2018 and earlier models. I have been eyeing a pre owned 2018 S7 for its large engine but the tech features of the 2019 and the crazy increasing gas prices - thanks to Russia. I opted with the 2019 A6 premium plus with brown seats. He did not show the foot motion trunk opening. Not sure if this model has it. It comes with mine.
@@rodrigofreitas981 amazing. my first audi ever (previously drove fords, hondas, and toyotas) and i don't think I'll ever be able to go back. The stop and go between the engine and the electric engine takes a little getting used to as does the automatic cruise control when it detects speed limit signs, but overall the thing is so quiet, all the new tech is fantastic, and everyone I show it to or give a ride is head over heels for the car. I'm even impressed by the gas mileage. Yesterday I drove to work and much of the drive was highway. Got 30mpg there and 26mpg back (more stop and go as it was 4pm).
I've just got the "bog standard"A6 ,got enough toys and features on it for me ,great drive and feels solid ,only problem at the moment is ive got it booked in to get a seatbelt bong fixed ,apart from that great car:-)
i went to the local audi dealership and they had this exact same car listed as a 2018 the only difference was it was listed as a 2018 and it was a premium plus
5:30 - These are NOT the full functioning HD Matrix LED headlights. They are merely the HD Matrix- *_Design_* LED headlights (Check the spec sheet closer at 2:36). Meaning they look the same on outside, but doesn’t function like the real HD Matrix LEDs that you are describing. The US NHTSA has not passed the full version of these lights like it has it EU.
N&T Auto Reviews - I’m also curious if the US rear LED turn signals also capable of displaying the amber color. Currently all of them in US are Red (as indicated in the video at 8:56).
@@ONI1013. Do you know if they will are capable of being enabled at a future time should they get approved? I'm literally picking my new A6 up today and this is the first time I'm realizing that the Matrix HD headlights won't have the full functionality, and I'm incredibly disappointed.
fanch16 - there’s no definitive approval date. From what I’ve read randomly across various sources, it look like NHTSA is looking into approving it, but the time frame is not clear.
Can someone tell me of the electronic door handles are slow/delayed to act...? Meaning if the cars unlocked already an I run up to the car an try to rip open the door as fast as I can will the electronic door handle’s be able to react instantly to me grabbing an jerking open the door.

The advanced is supposed to be even better than then 750 watt version. I love the 750w one. So clear and nice

It’s the new Ultra system that will decouple the rear end if needed

If the A6 looks this good, imagine the S6!
The S6 will have the 2.9 out of the RS5. Should be interesting to see how that holds up against the 4.0.
@@tydrives4846 the S6 suppose to be in the States by 2020
the S6 will be a diesel

How long do those touch screen last without issue? And are they covered under extended warranty. It would suck if all screens went black. Imagine

im about to buy a 2020 a6 prestige, but dam how audi going to do the exhausts like that
thank you for doing an actual review of the important features that people want to know about
Can’t get over the fake tips... still loving my c7 A6
Such a weird place for that 12V between those 2 cup holders...

A6 and A7 ????
Is animation for the back lights only on a prestige model, like the dancing lights?
The animation is only on the Prestige package
wow 14 grand worth of option
Watch it depreciate and deteriorate after she leaves the lot
yea... I think ill pass on this one
Love the a6 but the turn signals are on the left, not on both sides, right?
They are on both sides
