Driven: 2012 Audi A6

Audi is on a roll. Need proof? Who doesn’t overtly or secretly lust after an R8 Spyder? Would any of us kick anything with an RS badge out of our garage? Didn’t think so. Audi’s sales are growing because of its products. The German automaker recently broke the 100,000 unit sales mark in the States, with 2010 calendar year sales up 23 percent over 2009. The all-new 2012 Audi A6 — due in U.S. showrooms in September — continues the manufacturer’s aggressive product expansion and portfolio revitalization plan. Now we want to know if it’s good enough to bring even more buyers into the Audi family.

The A6′s debut at the Detroit Auto Show was all look and no play. So for the latter, we traveled to Sicily where we saw the A6′s new lines in daylight and it became even more clear that Audi’s designers in Ingolstadt have brought the sedan’s styling in-line with the automaker’s evolving corporate design language.
