Audi A6 Avant

Wagon, Premium

Audi A6 3.2 Avant

Those looking for a wagon that combines functionality with luxury, style and value can stop when they come to the Audi A6 Avant.   This was a strongly contested segment, with the Volvo XC70 and BMW 5-series wagon showing strengths as well.  However, the A6 Avant had a cost of ownership that was over 6% lower than expected, which earned it Vincentric’s Best Value in America™ award for 2008.
