The Audi S6 has a V10 engine of 5.2 litres of engine capacity which premiered on S8, but with reduced power of 450 to 435 hp. It has serial total traction and automatic change, and is available with bodywork family saloon or Avant.
The Audi S6 can be rewarding for those who seek a saloon with some very fast and sporty approach, but functional for daily use.
Audi S6
It is not a sport as it can be an M5: has a feature in the engine, transmission and chassis made to facilitate the normal daily use, to the detriment of a use which requires more acceleration, braking or speed in the reactions.

The Audi S6 engine has a very smooth and uniform response from a very low regime. Audi S6 has preferred a great engine cubic capacity (5.2 l) to a turbocharged engine or a motor drawing very fast just to make it more pleasant to use.
The Audi S6 terrain is ideal for this car is broad roads and highways. Its stability and its ability to make traction can also develop good roads in slow, but that is where there is a car that is heavy and is not for the fact that their reactions are agile.

Its biggest advantage in this type of road is the ability to traction, greater than the models more or less similar rear traction. Its disadvantage is the brakes; power in the braking can be as large as requires but is seen in this first contact, resistance to the warming is a normal car.
Few saloons with this size and power, the model closest to Audi S6 with that approach is the Jaguar S-Type R (398 hp). There is no family well, with less power is a BMW 550i Touring (367 hp) and more with a Mercedes-Benz E 55 AMG (476 hp).
Audi S6 Engine
The Audi S6 saloon with a body accelerates from 0 to 100 kph in 5.2 s, a normal time for a car of this power and weight (both very high). The S8, with 450 hp and only 30 kg more weight, takes 5.1 s in that measurement. The average consumption is 13.4 litres/100 km, which has an S8.

The Audi S6 engine was originally Lamborghini, but with many modifications. One of the most important is that it has direct injection gasoline-type FS. The transmission is similar to that of the S8.
Audi S6
It is a differential with a pair such that, if the bond is not the same in all four wheels, can make the front made up 65 percent of the force and drive back up to 85 percent.

The traction control makes the effect of limited slip differential in front and rear axles. The Audi S6 gearbox is automatic six-speed ZF home, with commander’s sequential selection behind the wheel. The gearbox is necessarily automatic and six-speed transmission has a development with which gives the maximum speed (limited to 250 km / h) in fifth and maximum power regime.

The Audi S6 has serial stability control (ESP) that can be disconnected into two phases. Initially disconnects the traction control that limits the power of the engine and remains active stability, in this case, the traction control can be turned off at any speed (not the case in other versions of the A6). If pressed the button again, disconnects stability control; remain active in any case the anti-lock brakes and traction control function equivalent to limited slip differential (EDL).

For almost all conditions, it is best to take all connected. In slow roads, disconnecting the traction control makes accelerate noticeably in curve of what is possible with the traction control connected.
Audi S6
The daylight (compulsory in some countries) in the headlights of Audi S6 is issued with five diodes placed on each side of the lower bumper; diodes consumption is lower than that of a bulb filament or gas. There are some very striking lighting, which played well the role of helping to see the car.

For motifs (the low position of the lights during the day gives the car an appearance dramatically flat "), fog no longer at the bottom and are integrated into the main headlamps. In principle, the lower is a fog is most effective, because the fog is rarely at ground level. The xenon headlamps are standard production and bend lighting system is optional.
