2015 Audi A6 facelift launched at Rs 49.5 lakh

Audi has launched the facelifted A6 in India in a unique online launch at a starting price of Rs 49.5 lakh, ex-showroom Delhi. The A6 sedan takes on the likes of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, BMW 5 Series and Jaguar XF in the mid-size premium luxury sedan segment.

The major update the facelifted A6 gets, like plenty of updated Audis in the recent past, is the Matrix LED headlight system. These will be part of the standard equipment on the A6 facelift as the Company has launched only the one top end 35TDI variant with the update.  The taillamps also get split LEDs like the headlights while the other rear detail is a new chrome strip on the boot tip. Flatter and wider exhaust tips on the new A6 look nice too.

On the inside, there is a new power retractable eight inch monitor and a new navigation system. It is now based on a new technology platform that uses the fast Tegra 30 graphics chip from Audi's partner Nvidia. The module also includes a LTE port which will offer online services to the user including support from apps.

Powering the new A6 is a 2.0-litre 190 horsepower diesel engine mated to a dual clutch automatic 7-speed gearbox.
