How does Audi's Quattro system enhance the A6's performance?

I've heard that Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive system is an important feature of the A6, but I'm not sure how it works or why it's beneficial. Can you explain in more detail?

The Quattro system works by continuously monitoring the road conditions and adjusting power distribution to each wheel accordingly. This not only improves traction and stability, but also enhances the car's handling and cornering abilities.

Compared to other all-wheel drive systems, the Quattro system is more responsive and can distribute power to individual wheels much faster, thanks to its advanced control unit and electronic differential lock. This translates to better performance and agility on both dry and slippery roads.

Having power sent to all four corners of the car also helps the A6 accelerate more quickly, resulting in a 0-60 mph time that's up to 0.5 seconds faster than competing models. Additionally, the Quattro system works seamlessly with the car's other advanced systems, such as Audi Drive Select and the sport differential, to enhance overall performance.
