Audi A6: Four Seasons test

Audi A6
We found an interesting Four Seasons test with the Audi A6.
As with all Audis, the impeccable styling extended to the interior.

Fit and finish are flawless, and there is an aura of refined elegance throughout. It's not surprising that we liked the glossy wood trim and the sumptuous leather on the steering wheel and seats (we chose the $1000 premium leather option). What was surprising, however, was that a simple item such as the volume control knob, located on the center console to the right of the MMI controller, got so much attention. "The location of the volume knob is absolutely perfect. It's strange how natural it feels. Every carmaker should learn from this Audi," wrote assistant art director Nicole Lazarus just a few days after the A6 arrived in Ann Arbor. During the year, many others echoed that sentiment, one going so far as to say it "deserves an award for Best Automotive Secondary Control of 2005."
