1998 Audi A6 Avant 2,7 Biturbo

The Audi A6 Avant’s top-of-the-range engine is the newly developed 2.7 litre V6 "Biturbo" with 169 kW (230 bhp). Engine development was based on the equivalent Audi S4 engine, but with the peripherals revised with a view to installation in the A6. The 2.7 T is equipped with Audi’s five-valve cylinder heads, water cooled turbochargers, charge-air intercooler, sequential fuel injection, adaptive knock control and charge-air control. A slightly reduced boost pressure and a re-matched engine control unit characteristic are the most important technical changes when compared with the initial engine.
Increased refinement and more torque at lower engine speeds were of primary importance in the chosen specification. The result is impressive: the maximum torque of 310 Nm is available between 1700 to 4600 rpm. This makes the Audi A6 Avant a commanding, dynamic performer with major reserves in hand.
The power flow is immense and remains continuously so until it reaches the nominal speed of 5800 rpm. The measured acceleration values from 0 to100 km/h (7.3 seconds) and the in-gear acceleration value (60 to 120 km/h in 14.0 seconds in fifth gear, 17.3 seconds in sixth gear) can only partly relay the splendid experience of driving an A6 Avant 2.7 T quattro.
But its not only the car’s performance which impresses: the miserly manner in which the biturbo V-6 consumes fuel demonstrates the driveline’s efficiency: 16.4/7.9/11.0 litres per 100 kilometres (urban/extra-urban/total in accordance with 93/116/EU) are the fuel consumption values for the A6 Avant 2.7 T with five-speed tiptronic transmission and front wheel drive.
The 2.7 litre engine, which has been optimally tuned to suit requirements in this class, represents the refined power unit par excellence in the Audi A6. In combination with the 6-speed manual gearbox, the A6 Avant 2.7T is in a position to glide along leisurely and economically along at relatively low engine speeds, but has ample reserves for a dynamic, enthusiastic driving style as and when required. The five-speed tiptronic transmission which is available as an optional extra provides even greater driver convenience without compromising driving pleasure in any way.
