The abbot of the Allgäu company has a long tradition in the performance of vehicles made by Volkswagen and Audi. Clearly the one with a history of 100 years is not tuning felt awestruck when the Audi A6 Avant presents the major with a strong power-313HP diesel. On the contrary. Is much in this case was not enough and so the Allgäu tuner is still a strong power boost and equipped the four-wheel drive Avant a total output of 360HP and 700Nm impressive.
Days of electro sound
A combination of strong 360HP must of course "rock" as he pulled the rubber band catapult as the occupants and the family dog in the trunk of the highway. Unfortunately, the inventor of the diesel engine, the sound has not been set as a priority and will sound even today, the diesel noise more like a family outing to the farm. Therefore, Audi and Abt not more so. But on the other hand - and thus created the sound designers from Ingolstadt an electronic sound, which can be influenced by on-board computer. Muttering in deep and believable sound like a real V8 gasoline engine, can propel the 3-liter V6 diesel through the village. The synthetic sounds so believable, like the strawberry flavor in fruit yoghurts have the never before seen a strawberry.
But it pleases. If you switch to synthetic illusory world via on-board computer menu to "comfort" were dashed, the bubble of the engine sounds comforting. Thanks to perfect shielding and high-Dämmkunst engine compartment, basically nothing more then penetrates into the interior which could point to the diesel principle, stand still in the early joy of torque explosion reveals.
Beam me up, Rudolf Diesel
The inventor of the diesel engine would float on a wave of ecstatic bliss, he would be able to learn what made Audi and the Allgäu boys of Abt and foul from the 120 year old principle of self-igniting engine for motor vehicles. With 700Nm of torque, the suit reminiscent of the coupled to an 8-speed automatic engine more to the steam hammer of a departing aircraft. Thanks to the series-supplied four-wheel drive "Quattro" everyone gets the tires he tolerated dose of power allocated. If the "beam" was not invented back in the 60zigern by the crew of the starship Enterprise, the test drive in the truck Abt'schen torque would have been a good opportunity for a new synonym for the word acceleration search. And "beam" would be just the right adjective for this precise.
Carry coals to Ingolstadt
Expect a review on the processing of the Audi A6? Or the luxury of a test car came with all of what life in the left lane of life has been making pleasant and beautiful? Certainly not. Audi has long since arrived in the league of "happy premium manufacturers." Instead of the owls, we should talk about the cuckoo.
Who wants to see on the selfsame not his possessions, which should be concerned about the financing of the company car driver's dream a few thoughts. A 313HP Audi A6 Avant is already beating high with the base price of just under 60,000 € on the petty cash out a deep crater in the usual company car costing. Thanks to an impressive depth charge-list from the manufacturer Audi and one again - special driving pleasure and neighbor-envy promising accessory list from Abt is one who uses embarrassment to both, the purchase price of the Abt AS6 loose 100,000 to the € driving limit and beyond.
What remains after the test drive in the Abt AS6?
In addition to the printing of the leather grain in the driver's shirt, it is one thing that remains in the mind of the driver. The compulsive attempt to make the right arguments to the next company car-finding hearing.
