Audi Side Assist works at speeds of over 30km/h and uses radar sensors to detect cars in other lanes at distances of up to 50 meters away. If a vehicle is detected, a signal on the wing mirror lights up to warn the driver. Audi Lane Assist helps the driver stay in his own lane. A new radar adaptive cruise control helps keep a steady distance between the A6 and the car in front. Finally there is a rear view camera to assist with parking.
