With the BMW 5 Series firmly in its sights, the new Audi A6 brings advanced technoogy from its Audi A8 bigger brother.
The new saloon is expected to cost from £35,000 and feature four and six cylinder diesel engines with mild-hybrid technology on the larger units.
Advanced cruise control with steering assist and traffic jam pilot will give the highest level of autonomy currently possible.
Emissions and mpg are also expected to be among the best in class.
