While we have already brought you a single grainy picture of a completely undisguised 2013 Audi A6 Allroad Quattro prototype that was caught completely off guard on the road, our spy photographers just dropped these latest pictures of a test car in our mailbox.

The mild off-road version of the new A6 Avant, which will once again carry the Allroad Quattro moniker, was covered up in the usual swirly camouflage seen on other Audi prototypes.

However, it is evident that the test car has a visibly higher ground clearance along with the typical chunky plastic cladding to protect the bodywork and tall roof rails similar to the previous Allroad models.

Don’t expect any surprises under the hood with the A6 Allroad Quattro making use of the same diesel and gasoline powertrains found in the new Avant combined with the Ingolstadt-based firm’s transmission options and all-wheel drive system.

The new A6 Allroad Quattro should make its appearance at one of the upcoming international motor shows and reach dealers sometime in the second half of 2012.
