Off the line, the A6 Avant hits 100 km/h in 7.00 s versus 8.08 s for the 620d Gran Turismo. At this point, the A6 Avant leads by 1.08 s and sits roughly 18 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the A6 Avant is doing 117 km/h against 114 km/h for the 620d Gran Turismo. The gap is 0.74 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the A6 Avant crosses the line in 15.02 s versus 15.92 s. The 0.90 s gap represents roughly 35 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the A6 Avant continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 161 km/h versus 158 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the A6 Avant finishes in 27.98 s versus 29.25 s, with a 1.27 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the A6 Avant is capped at 238 km/h, the 620d Gran Turismo at 220 km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit - it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (9.80 kg/hp vs 9.29 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 13.44 seconds. The 1.08 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
