The close-to-production Audi Q6 e-tron is just the beginning of the largest model offensive in the history of the brand with the four rings. Audi will introduce more than 20 new models by 2025 - more than ten of which will be electric. The future Q6 e-tron model series marks the inauguration of e-mobility at the Ingolstadt headquarters. An in-house battery assembly facility underpins Audi’s commitment to electric mobility.
Audi is currently putting the
production-oriented Q6 e-tron prototype through its paces in the far
north of Europe under strict safety regulations. The future model series
is the first to be built on the new Premium Platform Electric (PPE)
technology platform. With its 800-volt electrical system, powerful and
efficient electric motors, an innovative battery and charging management
system, and a newly developed electronics architecture, the
production-oriented Q6 e-tron prototype marks the next major step in the
electrification and digitalization of Audi’s model range.
The
upcoming Q6 e-tron model series, which comes in SUV and Sportback body
variants, represents sustainable production, the upskilling of the
workforce at the Ingolstadt site, and the electric future of the
company. Audi is transforming at an increasing pace into a leading
provider of connected, fully electric premium mobility. And it is doing
so on strong economic foundations: Audi closed the 2022 fiscal year with
record results.
"Our Vorsprung 2030 strategy provides the right
answers, even in times of multiple crises," says Markus Duesmann, CEO of
Audi AG. "We are completely focused on sustainability and
systematically advancing the digitalization and electrification of our
products."
