Powered by a 95kWH battery pack, Audi claims the e-tron can do 400km on a single charge.
The e-tron comes with adaptive air suspension and all-wheel steering to enhance your driving experience.
ORVMs are replaced by first-of-its-kind cameras for improved aerodynamics.
The Audi e-tron’s motors develop 360PS of maximum power, which can be boosted to 408PS for short bursts!
Audi India has showcased its first all-electric SUV, the e-tron, and has expressed plans to launch it here by the end of 2019. The Audi e-tron will become the first luxury all-electric vehicle to be launched in the country and will be brought in as CBUs (completely built units) from the company’s eco-friendly plant in Brussels. It is expected to be priced from Rs 1.40 crore (ex-showroom pan India) onwards.

It is expected to be priced from Rs 1.40 crore (ex-showroom pan India) onwards.
The Audi e-tron is powered by two electric motors, one on each axle. This setup allows for an electric version of the company’s trademark quattro all-wheel drive system. Producing a combined output of 408PS and 664Nm of torque in its ‘Boost’ mode, the e-tron can do 0-100kmph in 5.7 seconds and maxes out at 200kmph. The Audi e-tron also has a normal model where the power output is restricted to 360PS and the 0-100kmph figure arrives in 6.6 seconds. But the e-tron is not about performance, it is supposed to be an electric alternative to a comfortable, luxurious SUV which would fit in between the Q5 and Q7.
Powering the electric motors is a 95kWh lithium-ion battery pack that’s located in the floor. Capable of a range of 400kmph, the battery pack supports a charging capacity up to 150kW and can be charged from zero to 80 per cent in thirty minutes using a fast charger. Audi will also offer a home charger as standard with the e-tron that charges up the e-tron in around 8.5 hours. The carmaker also claims that the e-tron can do 88kms on a 10-minute charge. As with hybrid and electric cars, the e-tron features brake recuperation technology where the energy from the brakes and deceleration is used to charge up the battery.
The Highlighted Features Of E-Tron:-
The Audi e-tron gets plenty of technology to justify the brand’s ‘Vorsprung Durch Technik’ tagline, a.k.a Progress Through Technology. The ORVMs are replaced by rear-facing cameras that project the view on a screen in the door pads and the driver can also adjust the view based on their needs. The rear-facing cameras also help in improving the aerodynamics of the SUV which has a super low coefficient of drag value at 0.27cd. The all-electric SUV comes with adaptive air suspension which allows you lift/lower (170mm to 200mm ground clearance), stiffen/soften the suspension depending on the terrain. It also comes with all-wheel steering to enhance your driving experience.
