Audi urban concept (2011)

Audi is once again opening up new horizons: the Audi urban concept is a 1+1-seat, ultra-light car for congested urban spaces. The technical study, which will be shown at the Frankfurt Auto Show (IAA) 2011, does not fit under any of the conventional categories – the Audi urban concept combines elements of a racing car, a fun car and an urban car into one radical new concept.

At the Auto Shanghai 2021 trade fair, the Audi A6 e-tron concept made its debut as the forerunner of an innovative family of all-electric volume models. Now, the Audi A6 e-tron is being launched as a Sportback and Avant. As the second model on the Premium Platform Electric (PPE), it features the familiar strengths of the PPE in terms of performance, range, efficiency, and charging. It is also the first model on the platform with a flat floor concept. The exterior is commanding, sporty, and perfectly proportioned. The interior is shaped by Audi’s new design philosophy. Depending on the chosen equipment, the A6 e-tron offers many innovative features, such as second-generation virtual exterior mirrors, a panoramic glass roof with transparency control, and illuminated rings in the back. Since September 2024, the A6 e-tron performance with rear-wheel drive and a system output of 270 kW (280 kW with Launch Control) and the S6 e-tron with quattro drive and an output of 370 kW (405 kW with Launch Control), each as Sportback and Avant, can be ordered. Since October 2024, two more variants are available: a more affordable A6 e-tron with rear-wheel drive and a smaller battery, which has a total gross capacity of 83 kWh (net 75.8 kWh), and another model with quattro all-wheel drive and the larger battery capacity of 100 kWh (net 94.9 kWh). The entry-level price for the A6 e-tron is 62,800 euros.

Audi is opening the next chapter in its successful history in the mid-size segment with the new A5 family. Thirty years after the first Audi A4, the sharpened design language of the latest generation, now called the Audi A5, impresses with its premium proportions. Both body styles, Sedan and Avant, perfectly embody the sporty essence of the Audi design philosophy. A new design language in the interior creates a generous feeling of space, placing the displays on a digital stage. A new operating concept increases interaction with the vehicle. Efficient, partially electrified combustion engines and evocative S models round off the range.
