1 Answers
According to official specifications, the maximum wading depth of the Audi A6L is 250mm. Common tire specifications include 225/55R18, 245/45R19, and 255/40R20. The vehicle length is 5038mm or 5050mm, with a curb weight ranging from 1800 to 1995kg. It is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan. Maximum wading depth refers to the deepest water level a vehicle can safely pass through. Generally, sedans have a maximum wading depth not exceeding 30cm, while SUVs typically have higher wading depths, though it is advisable not to exceed 50cm. Among common models, the GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a maximum wading depth of 30cm, the Audi A4 32cm, the Volkswagen Sagitar 30cm, the Land Rover Range Rover 90cm, the Jeep Compass 48cm, and the Highlander 45cm. SUVs clearly surpass sedans in maximum wading depth. Generally, when driving through water, vehicle owners should take different measures based on the water depth and the vehicle's characteristics, as follows: If the water reaches the exhaust pipe height, it is relatively safe. Even if water enters the exhaust pipe, the internal pressure is sufficient to expel it. As long as the engine is not turned off in the water, no backflow will occur. If the water reaches the door frame height, it becomes hazardous. Most electrical circuits, electronic components, and sensors are located at the vehicle's base, risking short circuits and damage to critical components, potentially preventing the car from starting. If the water reaches the air intake height, it is extremely dangerous. Driving into such conditions may cause the engine to stall immediately, leading to permanent damage or rendering the engine unusable.
