The figures for some markets can vary due to different export versions and test procedures.
Please note that the details listed in the Audi A6's registration documents can be taken as correct.
Performance figures
The performance figures were measured without equipment which may influence performance, such as mudflaps or extremely wide-section tyres.
Kerb weight (unladen weight)
For Europe and certain other markets: the kerb weight includes an allowance of 75 kg for the driver in accordance with EU Regulation 1230/2012.
For China: the kerb weight does not include the driver in accordance with the GB 1589 standard.
Maximum trailer weights1)
For Europe and certain other markets: the maximum trailer weights are calculated in accordance with EU Regulation 1230/2012.
Maximum draw bar loading1)
The vertical load exerted by the trailer drawbar on the ball joint of the towing bracket must not exceed 85 kg (Saloon/Avant) or 100 kg (allroad).
In the interest of safety, we recommend applying the maximum permitted draw bar weight. The stability of the trailer could be adversely affected if too little weight is applied.
If the maximum permitted drawbar weight cannot be obtained, e.g. when using small or light trailers, statutory regulations require that the drawbar weight be at least 4% of the actual trailer weight (for single-axle trailers or twin-axle trailers with an axle spacing less than 1.0 m).
