| First Drive: 2011 Audi S6 Sedan Review & Road Test Posted: 14 Mar 2011 05:00 AM PDT
Ahhh... The Super Sedan... Seemingly the perfect balance of sporty performance, luxury accoutrements and 4+ passenger motoring. This is a category that has seen its fair share of strange amalgamations and unfulfilled aspirations. But it's undeniable that it has finally come into its own, and the 2011 Audi S6 is a capable if not decorated ambassador.
Audi is no stranger to this realm and has tossed in plenty of notable competitors over the years. The S6 is now in its third generation, with each iteration a quantum leap over the one before. What started out as a gawky but athletic teenager is now a powerful gladiator. The first pass came by way of a 227 hp 5-cylinder followed up with a 340-hp V8. Falling slightly behind its competitors, Audi decided it was time to step it up and turned to its brethren over at Lamborghini for a Gallardo-derived V10. Game over? Not quite, but the 2011 Audi S6 offers a compelling package at a price point below many of its competitors.
