The Avant boasts sportier and sleeker looks than its predecessor while the cabin is minimalist but classy with plenty of high-tech assistants to keep both driver and passengers safe.

Estate cars aren't very popular in South Africa but there is a market for them overseas with the likes of BMW's 5-Series Touring and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class estate.

Everything you need

This particular version sports a 210kW V6 engine with a top speed of 250km/h while it also has a few autonomous driving features as well.

Sadly, due to the lack of demand of this body shape, Audi South Africa has confirmed that the Avant variant will not be sold locally. However, the good news is that the new A6 will be available during the second half 2019.
