The third generation of the A6 Allroad came on the market in 2012 to prove that Audi was right when it decided to introduce a crossover vehicle based on the Audi A6 Avant.
While it wasn't a real off-road vehicle, it could cope well with unpaved tracks and even tackle some mild off-road trials. Audi protected its bodywork with a few plastic molds all around and stainless-steel plates underneath the car. It sat low on the road than a regular SUV and even lower at higher speeds thanks to its standard pneumatic suspension.
From the outside, the carmaker carried over most of its body panels from the regular A6 Avant, but the bumpers, exaggerated wheel-arches molds and the side sills were unique for it. On top of the vehicle, the carmaker installed roof-rails if someone would need more trunk space. They were more useful to carry bikes and a canoe. Usually, nobody needs more trunk space if it has an A6 Station-wagon.
Inside, Audi installed a comfortable cabin fit for five full-grown adults with plenty of legroom for four and limited for the third, middle passenger from the bench. The dashboard sported a clean design with a pop-out infotainment screen that showed maps from Google Earth. Its user could have expanded the trunk thanks to the split-folding rear seats from 565 liters (20 cu-ft) to a whopping 1680 liters (59.3 cu-ft). It formed a completely flat area, good enough to be used as a bedroom.
Under the hood, Audi offered two gasoline and one diesel engine. The latter was available in four power outputs ranged between 204 hp and 320 hp. All versions sported an all-wheel-drive system with a locking center differential and hill descent control.
