The 2014 Audi A6 TDI clean diesel sedan has been selected as a finalist for the Green Car Journal 2014 Green Car of the Year award. As a finalist, the Audi A6 TDI will be honored as one of Green Car Journal’s “Top 5 Green Cars for 2014” and will earn the magazine’s “Green Car Product of Excellence” honors. Since 2005, the Green Car of the Year program honors new vehicles with superior efficiency and improved environmental impact. The Green Car of the Year winner will be announced at this year’s Los Angeles Auto Show.



New for the 2014 Model Year, the Audi A6 TDI achieves an impressive EPA estimated fuel economy of 24 city/ 38 highway/ 29 combined MPG while at the same time delivering uncompromised performance, design and luxury. The A6 TDI delivers the best fuel economy among TDI competitors in its segment, with 30-percent more fuel efficiency than gasoline engines.

“Audi’s new A6 TDI underscores that improved environmental performance needn’t come at the expense of the joy of driving,” said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com. “This sedan seems to offer it all – comfort, luxury, style, and advanced on-board electronics, while also attending to lower CO2 emissions and surprisingly high fuel efficiency for this class of vehicle. Offering a powerful and efficient TDI clean diesel option in the A6, and other Audi models, is important. The A6 TDI is a deserving nominee for 2014 Green Car of the Year.”

Green Car of the Year jurors include auto enthusiast and Tonight Show host Jay Leno, plus leaders of the nation’s major environmental organizations including Jean-Michel Cousteau, president of Ocean Futures Society; Frances Beinecke, president of the Natural Resources Defense Council; Michael Brune, executive director of the Sierra Club; and Matt Petersen, board member of Global Green USA. Green Car Journal editors round out the 2014 Green Car of the Year jury.
