Audi to Expand EV Line-up With Audi A6 Avant e-tron With Extended Range

Audi is extending its range of electric vehicles with the Audi A6 Avant e-tron concept. It’s the next model in its future electrically-powered A6 Luxury Class.

Like the Audi A6 e-tron concept that was exhibited in 2021, the A6 Avant also has an exclusively electric drive system based on the PPE platform, developed by Audi’s team.

At the same time, it represents a new design concept with the same dimensions as the A6 Sportback e-tron.

The new model can be charged in just 10 minutes to a level sufficient to power the car for more than 300 kilometres (186 miles). In less than 25 minutes, its 00kWh battery can be from 5 to 80 percent.

The Audi A6 Avant e-tron concept’s two electric motors are capable of delivering 350kW (469ps) of total output and 800Nm of torque.

It can accelerate from 0-62mph in less than seven seconds. 

Audi Board Member for Technical Development, Oliver Hoffmann, says: “With the Audi A6 Avant e-tron concept, we are offering a completely tangible look at future production models on our new PPE technology platform. We’re not just electrifying the Avant’s successful 45-year history. What we want most of all is to use technical skills to add an exclamation point. In particular, this includes powerful 800-volt technology, 270 kW of charging capacity, and a WLTP range of up to 700 kilometres (435 miles).”

By 2025, Audi will offer more than 20 models with all-electric drive in the most important markets worldwide and achieve roughly 40 per cent of its sales with electrified variants.
