These are the first photos of the new 2019 Audi A6L,
the long-wheelbase variant of the Audi A6 sedan. And it is immediately visible
that the L is going to be quite a different car than the standard A6.
It is obviously longer, by at least 12 centimeter.
The rear door is also much larger. The design of the roof line behind the
B-pillar is different, and the design of the D-pillar and third-side window is
completely new.
The new Audi A6L is much more limousine-like than
the current Audi A6L, which is really just an A6 with a longer wheelbase. It seems Audi is going the same
way as Mercedes-Benz, where the E-Class L is visibly very different compared to
the standard E-Class.
The A6L will debut on the Chengdu Auto Show in
September and launch on the Chinese car market near year’s end. It is made in
China by FAW-Volkswagen. Price will range from 400.000 to 700.000 yuan. Power
will come from various 2.0 turbo and 3.0 V6 turbo petrol engines.
