SPYSHOTS: C8 Audi A6 Avant seen with sedan sibling

Here’s our best look at the all-new C8 Audi A6 Avant, which is expected to make its debut at this year’s Geneva Motor Show. These spy photos provided to us show a test mule being tested alongside its sedan sibling – also seen in prototype form.

Despite having some camo applied, the test mule looks nearly production ready, with many cues clear to see. The front fascia follows a similar theme seen on Audi’s newest models, adopting a larger and more angular singleframe grille paired with sharper headlights.

The profile looks pretty similar to the outgoing C7 as well, although the side mirrors have been moved further down to the doors. As for the rear, there are now slimmer taillights with graphics inspired by the new A7 Sportback, along with a pair of bumper-integrated tailpipes.

The new A6 range will likely be underpinned by the MLB Evo platform, which should result in some significant weight savings from its predecessor. Expect the usual line-up of four- and six-cylinder engines running on petrol or diesel to be offered. High-performance S and RS models will join the fray later on.
