The 2026 Audi A6 Avant refines Audi’s executive-class estate formula with mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains, a sharper design language, and an overhauled digital cockpit. It retains the brand’s signature quattro all-wheel drive, while delivering greater efficiency and space optimization for buyers who want a luxury wagon that performs with confidence and purpose.

Audi’s Singleframe grille is now more upright and flanked by optional Digital Matrix LED headlights with lane illumination and dynamic animations. New OLED taillights at the rear feature selectable signature lighting and proximity-based welcome/leaving effects.
