Get ready for a revolution in the world of luxury electric vehicles that uniquely combines sporty design and aerodynamics. So the new Audi A6 e-tron has been an extremely important vehicle for the German automotive industry for years In 2025, the Chinese enter the European market with electric vehicles, so the German car industry must finally show all its know-how and take off the gloves.

Technical specifications and performance

All models the new Audi A6 e-tron are equipped with a newly developed lithium-ion battery consisting of twelve modules and 180 prismatic cells, with a total gross capacity of 100 kWh (94.9 kWh net). This battery provides a range of up to 756 kilometers for the model A6 Sportback e-tron and up to 720 kilometers for the A6 Avant e-tron​​ model. The electric motors provide a system power of up to 270 kW in the A6 Sportback/Avant e-tron models and 370 kW (405 kW with launch control) in the S6 e-tron model​​. The A6 e-tron performance model accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds, while the S6 e-tron reaches this speed in an impressive 3.9 seconds. The top speed of the A6 e-tron is 210 km/h, while the S6 e-tron achieves 240 km/h​.

Realistically, on the highway at a speed of 130 km/h, you will easily break the 500 km mark with these cars. Which is already at the limit of safe driving without an item. I also praise Audi's decision to offer only one battery size.

Advanced technologies

The Audi A6 e-tron uses the latest PPE (Premium Platform Electric) a platform it shares with Porsche's electric models​​. System 800-volt technology allows ultra-fast charging up to 270 kW, which means you can charge the battery from 10% to 80% in 21 minutes. Thanks to this technology, the A6 Sportback e-tron performance model can gain a range of up to 310 kilometers​​. Intelligent temperature management and advanced regenerative braking are key components of this impressive charging performance.

Aerodynamics

At Audi, sporty design and aerodynamics are not mutually exclusive. The optimal basic setup and many detailed optimizations contribute to excellent aerodynamics and provide an extremely low coefficient of drag (cw) of 0.21 for the Sportback model, which makes it one of the most aerodynamic models in the history of Audi and the entire VW Group. Audi is well aware that new-generation mobility needs good aerodynamics, unlike BMW, which still prioritizes design – although not exactly the smartest over aerodynamics. The Avant model achieves a very good drag coefficient of 0.24, which ranks it among the best in its segment. This means that with low air resistance, driving efficiency is increased, energy consumption is reduced and the range of the vehicle is improved.

Design and comfort

The exterior of the A6 e-tron is a pure masterpiece of aerodynamic design. The interior offers top luxury with the latest materials, spaciousness and advanced features such as digital screens, adaptive LED lighting and advanced assistance systems that ensure safety and comfort while driving.​​

Model versions

Audi offers different models within the series A6 e-tron, including a limousine, Avant and sporty S-varianto. The saloon boasts elegant design and advanced technology, the Avant adds practicality with a larger boot space, while the S-variant brings sporty refinements and even greater performance.

Price range and variants

The powerful, sporty and perfectly proportioned models A6 e-tron and S6 e-tron, both as Sportback and Avant, will be available to order from September 2024. Prices for the upper mid-range model at market launch are €75,600 for the A6 Sportback e-tron performance and 77,250 euros for the A6 Avant e-tron performance. The S6 Sportback e-tron will cost 99,500 euros, and the price for the S6 Avant e-tron will be 101,150 euros. Further models with rear-wheel drive or quattro drive will follow later, depending on the market. The model with a smaller battery will represent an attractive entry into the A6 e-tron family.

Conclusion

The Audi A6 e-tron is not just another electric car; is a statement of what the future holds for the world of luxury vehicles. With its advanced technologies, impressive performance and unparalleled comfort, this car is the perfect choice for those looking for a combination of prestige and durability.
