Does the A6 belong to the B-segment car?
1 Answers
Audi A6 does not belong to the B-segment car; it is classified as a C-segment car. This classification of cars was invented by Volkswagen as part of their platform strategy, establishing a set of reference values. This classification method is not a globally unified standard, but China has consistently adopted this standard. The information regarding car classification levels is as follows: 1. According to Volkswagen's classification method, car levels are generally (from low to high): A00-segment, A0-segment, A-segment, B-segment, C-segment, and D-segment, corresponding to micro cars, subcompact cars, compact cars, midsize cars, full-size cars, and luxury cars, respectively. 2. C-segment premium passenger cars typically have a wheelbase ranging from approximately 2.8 meters to 3.0 meters, with engine displacements between 2.3 liters and 3.0 liters. Well-known C-segment cars in China include the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. 3. The classification of vehicle segments is not based on a single data point but rather a comprehensive consideration of various factors such as body dimensions, vehicle price, power, engine displacement, etc.
