Not long ago, automotive intelligence new media took stock of the high-end car sales list from January to November 2021. According to the list data, the BMW 5 Series leads the BBA medium and large car segment with 162,500 units. Second and third place at the time were the Audi A6L (146,000 units) and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class (127,000 units). Although there is no official sales data released at present, according to the sales volume of the first 11 months, if there is no accident, this ranking is basically the final ranking of 2021.
As the saying goes, "a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier", and a model that doesn't want to be a champion is naturally not a good model. As the lowest priced of the three BBA products, the Audi A6L failed to win the crown in 2021 due to chip shortages. But that's okay, maybe A6L still has a chance this year. Because, the A6L with a mid-term redesign is coming! According to media exposure, the new A6L of the mid-term reform has now appeared in the approval announcement of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, let's first see what changes it has in the medium-term reform.
It is worth saying that in view of the fact that Audi has just listed the 2022 A6L not long ago, the A6L of the medium-term modification will most likely not be listed in the near future, and it may be officially launched in the second half of the year.
Although it is another revision after the 2022 model, it is a little regrettable that the appearance of the new A6L in the declaration chart is still not much obvious change. If I have to say the most obvious change, I am afraid it is the middle net of the front face. The new A6L will still be divided into two appearances: dynamic and elegant. Take the dynamic type, the main adjustment is the decoration of the interior of the central network, which has been changed to a similar dot matrix design.
As for whether it looks good or not, let's evaluate it ourselves. In addition, although the headlight shape remains unchanged, the internal light source is slightly adjusted; the front bracket shape is also slightly adjusted. Overall, very little has changed. In contrast, I prefer the elegant version of the horizontal strip chrome mesh, which looks more classy and less obtrusive.
As for the side, the new A6L has not changed from the current model. Even the size completely maintains the data of the old model, and the wheel shape is the same. Tail styling, the new A6L line is slightly adjusted. Mainly concentrated under the rear bar, to everyone's disappointment, the exhaust part is still decorative. Moreover, the long-awaited through-type taillights have still not appeared. It seems that if you want to have a big change, you can only wait for a big change.
In terms of power, it is the most noteworthy place for this new A6L. In the declaration information, the new A6L is equipped with the 2.0T engine with the DKW code name, and the maximum power has reached 180kW, which is still a certain improvement over the 165kW of the current A6L 2.0T version.
Conclusion: Many car owners believe that the power of the high-power version is still not strong, and after the power is improved, such a problem should be solved. However, some netizens believe that the power increase is a good thing, but will it raise the pricing of the new A6L? If the price is higher than the cash, how many consumers will pay for it?
