AUDI E-TRON

The German carmaker’s first fully electric model is a sporty SUV, which is a perfect blend of sports car, family car and everyday leisure car. The electric all-wheel drive promises an impressive 400km on a full charge, thanks to the high-voltage battery under its hood. The e-tron delivers utmost agility and performance thanks to its engine, which delivers a whopping 300kW of power and 664Nm of torque. The car promises a 0-100km/ph sprint in 5.7 seconds and a top speed of 200km/ph. The car is part of Audi’s new Quattro generation, the electric all-wheel drive, which is designed to maximise performance and to enhance the drive experience. The driver can choose from different drive modes, depending on the road condition, which optimise engine performance as well. Other perks of the car will include Audi’s virtual cockpit packed with high-resolution graphics across different screens. The interiors are designed to reflect the contemporary direction in which Audi is taking its aesthetics and are packed with amenities and functions that could make any car geek rave. Both on the outside and the inside, the Audi e-tron is a perfect example of the next generation SUV.
