10 On March 28, Audi’s official public account announced that it insists on prioritizing the needs of car owners and that the upcoming 9th generation C-class sedan will retain the classic name of “A6L”.

Previously, it was reported that the numbers in Audi model names will become a symbol to distinguish electric models from fuel models. The new-generation fuel version of the A6 will be renamed A7 to comply with Audi's new naming strategy, while the original A6 series will be reserved for the pure electric version.
