Tony x r u kidding me we will see more American cars in the junky’s then German cars it’s a proven fact my Audi’s last way longer then your piece of shit Chevy that’s a money pit
I personally feel physical buttons are better than touchscreens. If the screen for the climate controls breaks, it will take a good amount of money to replace it. But you can’t deny the interior do look good!
@A true petrol-head You don't use your smartphone while driving for a reason. It's distracting and behind the wheel - dangerous. You need to take your eyes completely off the road for a long time to adjust any setting. That's why it's bad.
Genuinely laughed out loud on many occasions; the VR was a particular highlight, as was the insect dive bombing Mat at the very end. Really love this channel, Mat you are by far the best motoring video journalist I’ve ever watched. Your reviews are informative, witty and very watchable. Keep up the great work.
Reveal Media if you look the previous gen a6,7 and 8 they had the same interior as well, audis have always copied their interiors in all of their line up q5,q7,a4,a6... It's the same case in BMW's though.
You are absolutely right! I get it , it's simple economics that the same interior is fitted into every model , maybe fitted with softer padded plastics into the more higher end models. However it doesn't cut for me, I used to be an audi fan til they introduced these next gen a6,a7,a8,q7 ... for me Lexus has started to really produce fascinating and unique interior designs for all of their vehicles.
Thank you for making sensible and concise videos that don’t give me epileptic seizures. Thank you. The reason that piece of the dashboard is hollow plastic and flimsy is because these cars will need to be recycled once the warranty runs out on them since no one will be able to afford the repair costs after everything fails on them. It’s literally a disposable machine.
Matt Watson, I really like your car reviews and make sure I watch them. I really like your humour and your reviews are never boring line done of the other car reviewers. Keep up the good work.
audis last halfway good generation was the one until 2017, the new ones are junk, audi had MASSIVE cost cuttings and their new cars doesnt even use the quattro system anymore. fwd shit cars with a fake quattro, no thx.
That whacking price range reminds me of the E32 BMW 7 Series, where the pinnacle of the luxurious range (the 750iL Highline) was over twice the price of the base model (730i). The finest of its class included anything you could imagine for the wealthy, such as an integrated coolbox, walnut folding tables, double glazing windows and leather in every single corner, all of this in hand with a 300 PS V12 engine, taking you from 0 to 62mph (0-100kph) in just over 7 seconds. Pretty impressive for that time.
The dealership gave me "S" line version as a loaner for half a day while I had to take my A4 through the 20k maintenance The ride was very comfortable especially over the usual bumps I go through on my A4. The sound system was banging although I didn't mess with it at all. I wasn't very fond of the touch screen system since it takes your eyes off of the road, but I supposed I should've used the voice activation aspect of the car. I also didn't like the fake exhaust tips. Overall, it's still a very nice car to drive.
This Audi a6 from 2019 is my current dream car. Minimalistic, modern, clean, luxury, sporty, diplomatic, it's everything that a business limousine should be, even in 2024. I hope that the universe will create the opportunity for me to own it one day, soon.
Matt @ Carwow, you do reaize that when you do "Raise" on the airsuspension it actuay yes jacks up the suspension as high as possible, but it also restricts the suspension movement to maintain the groundcearance. With just Comfort without raising the result would be much better (Daily driving A8L)
At this point, I want to own everything, I want Audi, I want mercedes, I want bmw, I want vw and the rangerover too. Let me have parking space problems
A true petrol-head alright then! I remove what i previously said,i didn't intend to sound mean or whatsoever.Just wanted to imply to the guy to be more realistic.
NickLiang Glass screens can still be matte though thus preventing glare and fingerprints. Also I do not like that there are so many screens in general, matte or otherwise.
My neighbor just bought his son a brand new A4 and I legitimately thought it was an A6 until I was walking one day and it was outside and I could see the badge on it. Similarly one of my neighbors has a new E-Class and you think it's an S-Class when it is coming until it passes by and you see it's shorter, that shouldn't be the case in either scenario, the models should be easily distinguishable from each other.
I have followed your channel for a long time, and it is a pleasure and pride to notice that the video is to be recorded in the place that I live,I love your channel and congratulations for the work you've done. #Apendurada#Penafiel#Portugal💙
Absolutely love the technology inside the car (the definition of the screens, etc), but I get a little... nervous wondering how well this stuff is going to hold up in, say, 3 years time. I mean, a 1999 car was more than passable in 2004. But is "cutting edge" 2018-19 going to cut it in, say, 2021?
japanwatchconnection rather than fanboy I would call him someone who likes audi. He is equally critical of all cars. As far as the luxury levels go he hasn’t quite mentioned those much in this review though the old A6 did lag behind the merc.
Technologically Audi is better than any other cars. Also, they are more reliable than most German cars if not every. And again it's cheaper considering the things you get with it.
A true petrol-head I haven’t been offensive in any way and you haven’t even expressed an opinion for me to agree/disagree with so stop polluting this comment section and leave.
Anyone over 20 years old will not benefit with a more expensive sound system. Nice that you point to the build quality issues - maybe a first for Audi in the last 20 years. Biggest issue: the engine is still in front of the front axel.
I’m currently driving a brand new loaner 35 TDI WITHOUT ANY OPTIONS - it has a basic rear view camera which might be an option - and it breaks my heart to see all these goodies. Great suspension and sound insulation in any version tho.
I do like the new Audi A6 because it looks stylish, pack with on-board technology and has a range of powerful engines. I don’t like the fact that Audi has ditched the click-wheel for two centre touchscreens which means if the driver wants to control the air-con he has to take their eyes off the road.
That water test would be better if it was a basin or at least a cup that is secured in place and then brimmed with water. That bottle was affected by the airflow when a higher speed was reached.
All good, BUT, predicted reliability, insurance cost, routine maintenance costs would be a helpful discussion. For BMW, I was told "you will LOVE driving it, but you will HATE...owning it. Is there a similar problem with Audi?
P3pp3r as youcan see it's a full option car and similar to the A8 if they made it with no mistake no o e will go for the more expensive car that's why they are obliged to make so stupid things to maintain the A8 chance !
This A6 definitely looks better than a 5 Series or an E Class, but that Dash wobble is such a turn off... Then again, as a 20 yo student I can't even afford a jimny
Ridiculously expensive for a fully loaded one 80k that's A8 money at lower trim options. For something that will lose half of its value in 3 years plus that's a total rip off. One can get an E class fully loaded for over 70k dollars in the States. Why would I choose this over it? It is really insane, though it must be said very few people are going to buy this car fully loaded with all these options. To make it worse its build quality isn't the best as demonstrated in the video. For an 80k car it's beyond ridiculous
You’re acting as if the Mercedes will hold its value brilliantly. It won’t, no German car does, most of these cars are on PCP finance so it doesn’t matter anyway
Samson Okoro hence the question: why would you buy an A8 if you can have an A6 fully loaded with the exact same options? But remember the £80K A6 has a V6 petrol engine, with a less powerful engine it would be less expensive
Edi Pires the A8 has so many other things not available on the A6 and it's the flagship at the end of the day. The A8 has some unique safety features, has the executive seating package with the Lcd remote control screen. The A8 at the end of day has bigger and more powerful engine options as well.
More sexual innuendo than usual... I think the Carwow bosses are on holiday this week! Nice review, but even as a young tech savvy guy, I can imagine having to read the manual to figure this car out and I am far from the target demographic for an 80K limousine. Is there such a thing as too much tech for a car aimed at a more senior crowd?

"take me to heaven" -> exhoust gas starts filling the car
So basically A6, A7 and A8 are same cars as far as interior goes

Gorgeous car. Audi have really aced the A6, which is great considering how disappointing I thought the A8 looked.
The back end of this A6 looks a lot better than the new A8
seriously? the fake exhaust tips?
@@loytunes A8 has them as well.

That's a huge disappointment...come on Audi you can do better than that..

That whacking price range reminds me of the E32 BMW 7 Series, where the pinnacle of the luxurious range (the 750iL Highline) was over twice the price of the base model (730i). The finest of its class included anything you could imagine for the wealthy, such as an integrated coolbox, walnut folding tables, double glazing windows and leather in every single corner, all of this in hand with a 300 PS V12 engine, taking you from 0 to 62mph (0-100kph) in just over 7 seconds.

I think i like this new Audi over the new 5 series and E class. Are you doing comparison video for those 3 cars anytime soon?
I just love your review. Short but not too short. One the point. And I love your humor. Thanks for another great video

Thanks mate just bought a6 . Best review on RUclips
Moses was reincarnated through that dog in the road he wanted to make sure you’d never hit him😄
this guy is provably the best host i have ever seen on a car show
Too many glossy screens which will look like crap when they're ful of fingerprints.
That's because the best touch screen systems use glass screens
NickLiang Glass screens can still be matte though thus preventing glare and fingerprints. Also I do not like that there are so many screens in general, matte or otherwise.
Just wipe it.
Nobody complained when Tesla did it but as soon as Audi does it everyone shits themselves
Brad Marchand the Licker & Slew Footer but tesla literally everything is touchscreen

Hopefully without fake exhausts

I'm sure the RS6/RS7 will have real exhaust pipes, but the new Q5 and SQ5 have fake ones.
Andrew Denisyuk Hmm I wouldn’t put it past Audi, those fake SQ5 exhausts are some of the most offensive on the market
