Audi is expanding its electric vehicle lineup with the upcoming A6 e-Tron, set to make its global debut in late July 2024. Positioned as the electric sibling to the recently unveiled Q6 e-Tron SUV, the A6 e-Tron will be built on the versatile Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture.
Previewed as a concept in 2021, the production version of the A6 e-Tron is expected to adopt a more restrained design language in line with Audi’s traditional aesthetic. Key design elements likely to carry over from the concept include split headlights with LED daytime running lights, a closed-off grille with integrated vents, a rakish roofline, and a full-width LED lightbar at the rear.
Inside, the A6 e-Tron is poised to offer a luxurious and technologically advanced cabin. Drawing inspiration from the Q6 e-Tron, it is expected to feature a dual-screen setup with an 11.9-inch driver display and a 14.5-inch infotainment system. Advanced features like a 10.9-inch passenger display, dynamic ambient lighting, and an augmented reality head-up display are also likely to be included.
Since the A6 e-Tron will share its platform with the Q6 e-Tron; Audi is expected to offer a dual-motor configuration initially, with a single-motor variant potentially following later. The concept version boasted impressive performance figures, and while specific details for the production model are yet to be revealed, similar levels of power and torque are anticipated.
To maximize range and efficiency, the A6 e-Tron is expected to utilize a 100 kWh battery pack, similar to its SUV sibling. With support for up to 270 kW fast charging, drivers can replenish the battery quickly.
The Audi A6 e-Tron will compete with other luxury electric sedans such as the Mercedes-Benz EQE and BMW i5 when it launches later this year. Audi aims to position the A6 e-Tron as a benchmark for electric luxury, combining advanced technology, stylish design, and sustainable performance.
