Numbers first, because with the Audi Q6 they are the story: Petrol engine, 170-221 kW. Audi built from 2022, in the decade the industry is turning electric. Siming Yan drew it.
Where it came from
The Audi Q6 is a full-size luxury crossover SUV with three-row seating produced by Audi through SAIC Audi joint venture in China since 2022. It was released in July 2022.
Under the skin
Power comes from Petrol engine; 170-221 kW is the published figure; other versions carried different engines, listed in the specification table below. It shifts through a 7-speed S-Tronic Direct-shift gearbox / DSG. The layout matters: drive goes to all four wheels, which is what lets the power be used on a wet road. The wheelbase is 2980 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
In context
Its family tree is legible: assembly was at Ningbo, Zhejiang (SAIC-VW. Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Kia EV6, the Porsche Taycan, the Alfa Romeo Tonale — show what else the money bought that year. Nearby in the Audi catalogue sit the Audi 200 and the Audi 225.
What it costs now
The money question first: $37,200–$53,600 is the typical asking range today, and running it — fuel and maintenance at its age — costs about $1,105–$1,455 a year. Insurance sits around $2,050–$2,930 a year. The figures are class-level estimates from the federal record, with the formula on the methodology page; the model-year pages carry complaints, recalls and repair costs year by year.
