Set to go on sale shortly after the A6 sedan comes to market in Europe in a few months, the hybrid A6 mate will be a gasoline engine of four cylinders of an electric motor to deliver a strong performance, increased fuel efficiency and reduced emissions .0
In most ways, the hybrid will mirror the sedan A6 A6 2011, earning a look borrowed from its big brother, the Audi A8 sedan and a more refined interior trimmed in materials of high level.
But the biggest changes under the hood, where supply hybrid gets a 2.0-liter TFSI gasoline engine, four-cylinder rated at 211 horsepower coupled to a power of 45, 156 lb-ft. torque electric motor. The electric motor is just behind his colleague and gas occupies the space next to an eight-speed automatic transmission. To keep weight down, the hybrid A6 will be front-wheel-drive only.
Audi says the sedan will be capable of hitting 62 mph on just electricity, as well as some other hybrids – in other words, Toyota’s offerings – which will have an EV mode selectable by a dedicated panel mounted switch. Cruise just under 40 mph, the hybrid of the A6 will be able to run on electricity just under two miles. Look for 0-62 sprints in 7.3 seconds to go, but fuel efficiency will be more like a standard four-cylinder unit. Audi predicts 38 mpg in combined driving, a value above the diesel Mercedes-Benz E350 BlueTEC sedan competitive.
