CarGurus Analysis: 2021 Audi A6

Summary
With 37 currently listed for sale and an average price of $25,258, 27.0% of 2021 Audi A6 listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2021 Audi A6 4.25 / 5 stars.
81.1% of 2021 Audi A6 listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2021 Audi A6 stands out as a midsize luxury sedan that blends understated style with a strong technology focus. In its fifth generation, it became longer and wider than the previous generation, gained about 250 pounds, and moved to a new aluminum and steel chassis related to the larger A8’s. It also made a major leap in technology, with digital interfaces, standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, dual screens, lots of connectivity, and semi-autonomous capability, while Audi’s quattro all-wheel drive system was standard across the lineup.
It was also well equipped for the class, with standard LED headlights and taillights, S-line exterior styling, a power sunroof, tri-zone automatic climate control, and Audi’s Pre Sense City automatic emergency braking. Available features such as adaptive cruise control, Audi’s virtual cockpit, a 360-degree camera, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, a sport suspension, rear side airbags, adaptive suspension damping, all-wheel steering, and a 19-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system added to its appeal. Buyers looking at a 2021 model can also find it attractive on the used market, with an average list price around $26,300.
There are a few tradeoffs to keep in mind. The A6’s exterior is more evolutionary than dramatic, and its conservative styling may not stand out to everyone. It also has a front-wheel-drive bias, disappointing fuel economy, and a poorly executed infotainment system according to the source material. Even so, the 2021 Audi A6 remains appealing for shoppers who want a premium sedan with standard all-wheel drive, a spacious feel, and a long list of technology features.

Generally — the 2021 Audi A6 earns a 4.25/5 user rating, which points to solid owner satisfaction. Owners consistently praise the high-tech features and smooth driving experience, and many also like how it performs in different weather conditions. The A6’s understated luxury, spacious feel, and standard all-wheel drive make it a strong fit if you want a premium midsize sedan with a long list of technology features.

Is the 2021 Audi A6 reliable?
Owners rate it 4.25/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction.
The user feedback also points to reliability and safety as strengths, with owners describing the car as dependable in a range of conditions. That said, some buyers mention wear and tear concerns, so a careful inspection matters if you want to reduce long-term ownership risk. For used shoppers, the safest path is to prioritize well-documented examples with clean history and consistent maintenance.
What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Audi A6?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 80.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should start with the history report and confirm there are no accident records or title issues. After that, put the car’s condition at the top of your inspection checklist, especially for signs of wear and tear that could affect long-term ownership. Because this model is tech-heavy, it also makes sense to test the infotainment system and other electronics carefully during your drive.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Audi A6?
This is a moderate market, so you can be selective without expecting a deep bargain on every listing.
- Deal availability: 37.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 248 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 9.74% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 80.6% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $26,211, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2021 Audi A6's resale value?
The current average of $26,242 sits slightly below last year's $29,073.
That price movement suggests the market has cooled, which can help you buy more confidently now but may also mean slower appreciation if you plan to resell soon. For future sellers, the key is to buy a well-kept example so you have the best chance of standing out when it’s time to list. Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.25/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2021 Audi A6 or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2021 if:
- 37.5% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 80.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 9.74% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.25/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
The bottom line:
The 2021 is a strong choice if you want a premium midsize sedan with standard all-wheel drive, a tech-forward cabin, and a market that gives you some negotiating room. If your priority is stretching your budget further, you may want to compare nearby years and focus on the cleanest, best-priced example rather than chasing a specific model year alone.
