Audi Q6 e-tron price: now 77,950 euros or 65,000 euros if you can wait

The most important information about the Audi Q6 e-tron is the platform on which it stands. This is Audi’s first model on the Premium Platform Electric (PPE). And yes, that was developed in collaboration with Porsche. New electricity Porsche Macan they wear the same technical underwear.

100 kWh for 625 km

Thanks to this platform, Audi’s new electric SUV has a large battery of 100 kWh (net 94.9 kWh) and an official range of 625 km. And that comes our prediction about the frequency so out. In practice, you have to drive economically to get far on an electric battery charge, but Audi also promises ‘ultimate efficiency’.

The standard Q6 e-tron has 388 hp and the extra sporty SQ6 e-tron produces 490 hp. Both versions have a top speed of over 200 km/h, so you won’t go wrong on the German highway (210 or 230 km/h respectively) with this Audi SUV.

Fast charging with 270 kW

The highlight of the PPE platform is a fast charging capacity of 270 kW. It uses 800 volt technology to charge the battery monster from 10 to 80 percent in about 21 minutes. That’s important and impressive, but it doesn’t make the Q6 e-tron the world’s fastest charging SUV. We saw the Lotus Eletre fast charging with 310 kW.

The Audi Q6 e-tron gets great lighting technology

Technology is a broader subject than just driving an electric car. Audi is pleased with the technology of good lighting. The front and rear lights are composed of multiple OLED panels and parts so that they can display good light displays. In the car menu you choose how your Q6 e-tron will light up the world.

Changing the light image not only looks good, it is also used to warn other road users. For example, digital rear lights can display warning signs to alert other road users of accidents or stationary vehicles.

A dashboard with three screens

The dashboard of the Q6 e-tron looks like a whole, but it’s an interesting mix of new and old. New is the curved panoramic display, which has two screens: an 11.9-inch cockpit and a 14.5-inch touchscreen. The co-driver has its own 10.9-inch display. And what is old about this? A beautiful decorative wooden strip running behind the curtain, for example. And a standard start button – EVs don’t need that at all.

We look free for physical bonds. There are touch buttons on the steering wheel that remind us of the induction hob buttons and we find even more on the door. There is a panel with touch buttons for adjusting the mirror and lights.

But what we are not looking for in vain is ignorance! There is a storage space of 64 liters in the nose of the car. The charging cable goes in there when the trunk (526 to 1529 liters) is filled to the brim.

The Q6 e-tron is the EV sibling of the Audi Q5

By the way, Audi is changing all known brand names. In the new system, even numbers are reserved for electric models, while odd numbers indicate Audis with a combustion engine. Pretty simple, right? So the Q6 e-tron serves as a pollution-free alternative to the popular one Audi Q5.

Audi Q6 e-tron prices

The first copies of the Audi Q6 e-tron to come to the Netherlands have a 100 kWh battery pack, 388 hp and quattro all-wheel drive. Prices start at 77,950 euros. You pay at least 88,900 euros for an electric Porsche Macan. A top model with 490 hp can also be ordered: the Audi SQ6 e-tron is available from 101,400 euros.

Two versions with rear-wheel drive will follow later this year: a variant with a 100 kWh battery pack and therefore a larger range, and also a version with an 83 kWh battery pack, for which a starting price of 65,000 euros applies. So you don’t have to be too patient for a very low price.
