Audi A6 E-Tron

Following the development of electric vehicles of other car companies, Audi is increasingly turning to the electrification of its own cars. This time Audi has unveiled its new Sportback with two electric motors, the Audi A6 E-Tron.

The A6 e-tron is based on the PPE platform developed by Audi in collaboration with Porsche. Some of the novelties are the absence of mirrors, replaced by cameras, and the lack of door handles. Also, the A6 E-Tron has LED headlights and a wide line with digital OLED elements.

Speaking of powertrain, the A6 E-Tron is powered by two electric motors that produce 470 HP (350 kW) and 590 lb-ft of torque (800 Nm). It takes less than 4 seconds to reach 62 mph. The car has an air suspension and for better weight distribution, batteries (100 kWh) are placed between the axles.

Thanks to the fast charging system, up to 80 percent of the battery can be charged in just 25 minutes and a 10-minute charge gives a range of 186 miles (300 km). With a full battery, the range of the A6 E-Tron is 435 miles (700 km).
