1998 Audi A6 Avant 1,9 TDI

The powerful and economical TDI four-cylinder, in terms of engine output, is actually the Audi A6 Avant’s entry-level engine. However, this engine variant gives the A6 Avant some highly impressive performance characteristics ­ and also makes it one of the most economical estate cars in its class. Thanks to the turbocharger with VTG (variable turbine geometry) the driver has access to the maximum torque of 235 Nm at 1900 rpm, with the peak power output of 81 kW (110 bhp) being developed as early as 4150 rpm.
Its astonishing torque over a wide speed range guarantees elasticity whenever the situation demands it: 23.8 seconds from 60 to 120 km/h in top gear, 12.8 seconds for the standard acceleration discipline of 0-100 km/h. Even more impressive is the fuel consumption achieved by the four-cylinder TDI: 7.6/4.7/5.8 litres per 100 kilometres (urban/extra-urban/total in accordance with 93/116/EU) for the Audi A6 Avant 1.9 TDI with five-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive.
