Audi is announcing a further, particularly efficient drive variant for the new Audi Q6 e-tron ahead of the official market launch in August.

With up to 641 kilometers, according to WLTP, the Audi Q6 e-tron performance is one of the models with the longest range in its segment. With up to 260 kilometers of rechargeable range in 10 minutes at a suitable fast charging station, it ensures a high level of comfort even on long journeys.
The new, additional drive variant is the youngest member of the Audi Q6 e-tron family. It has the longest range within the model portfolio and represents the entry-level price. The Audi Q6 SUV e-tron performance can now be ordered from €68,800. Delivery is planned for the third quarter of this year.
