Audi has unveiled the new A6 e-tronavailable in body configurations Sportback e Avant. These models represent an absolute novelty for the brand, offering a combination of impressive range and cutting-edge charging performance. Thanks to the innovative PPE platform, the Audi A6 e-tron is positioning itself as a benchmark in the electric car sector.
Innovation and autonomy of the Audi A6 e-tron
The new Audi A6 e-tron Sportback and Avant boast a range that can exceed 750 kilometers, thanks to new generation lithium-ion batteries with a nominal capacity of 100 kWhCharging is extremely efficient: with a power of 270 kW in direct current, it is possible to obtain 310 kilometers of range in just 10 minutes.
Aerodynamic design and efficiency
The design of the A6 e-tron is optimized for aerodynamic efficiency, with a drag coefficient (CX) of 0.21 for the Sportback variant, the best value in the history of Audi and the entire VW Group. The Avant configuration also comes close to these efficiency levels with a CX of 0.24. Elements such as air curtains, spoilers and adaptive air intakes help improve airflow, reducing energy consumption and increasing range.
Power and performance of the Audi A6 e-tron
The Audi A6 e-tron range comprises two main powertrain configurations: the performance version, with a 367 hp rear electric motor, and the sporty S6 e-tron quattro version, with two electric motors and a total power of 551 hp in boost mode. The performance variant offers a 0 to 100 km/h sprint in 5.4 seconds, while the S6 e-tron quattro reaches 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds.
Advanced technology
The interior of the A6 e-tron features a “digital stage,” with the 11.9-inch Audi virtual cockpit and the 14.5-inch MMI Panorama Display. The second-generation virtual exterior mirrors and the electrochromic panoramic sunroof are just some of the technologies that emphasize digitalization and innovation. Predictive thermal management and the Plug & Charge function, which enables automatic charging without the use of cards or apps, ensure an unparalleled user experience.
Safety and comfort
The Audi A6 e-tron is equipped with adaptive air suspension and a wide range of driver assistance systems. The adaptive driving assistant plus regulates the vehicle dynamics across the entire speed range, integrating the adaptive cruise control functions and active lane assist. The second-generation OLED headlights improve safety by communicating with the outside world via active warning symbols.
Charging and energy management
Thanks to voltage at 800 Volts and with a DC charging power of up to 270 kW, the A6 e-tron can recharge up to 310 kilometers of autonomy in just 10 minutes. In addition, the charge status changes from 10% to 80% in 21 minutesthanks to predictive thermal management. The energy recovery system and electro-hydraulic braking, which manages 95% of daily decelerations, further contribute to the car’s generous autonomy.
The MMI infotainment system, with the support of the new intelligent voice assistant, makes interaction intuitive man-machine and personalized. Integration with the ChatGPT voice assistant provides accurate and up-to-date answers, improving the user experience without compromising their privacy.
