Audi komt (eindelijk) met de A6 e-tron met een (EV-klassegerechte) Cd van 0,22. (Mercedes EQS heeft 0,20, Tesla model S haalt sinds 2021 ook 0,208 (voordien 0,24), zelfs de veel kortere Tesla model 3 haalt 0,23)

300 km bijladen zou in 10 minuten mogelijk zijn.

Ergens einde 2022 op de markt?

Audi has just shown the future of their electric sedans with the A6 e-tron concept, which debuted at the Shanghai auto show today.

The sedan is based on a new platform that Audi is calling “Premium Platform Electric” or “PPE” for short, developed in collaboration with Porsche. This platform will enable Audi to offer several new vehicles, with the first hitting the road in late 2022.


The A6 e-tron concept boasts the impressive specs that one would expect from a premium electric vehicle. The A6 will have a 100kWh battery, and be able to charge at up to 270kW on an 800 volt charger. Audi claims its 350kW (469hp) motor will push the car from 0-100 km/h (0-62mph) in less than four seconds.

The battery is good for a range of 700 km (435 miles) on the WLTP cycle, which translates to about 390-400 miles on the EPA cycle. While we don’t have final efficiency numbers yet, and these are all just estimates for a concept car, this would put the car in line with the most-efficient electric cars available today. Audi claims the A6 e-tron has an aerodynamic drag coefficient of just .22, which would also make it one of the least-draggy cars available.

High efficiency helps with charging too – the less energy you use to go a certain distance, the more miles you can add with the same amount of electricity. Audi says that a 270kW charger will be able to charge the battery from 5-80% (about 480 km/300 mi of range) in about 25 minutes. Or in an optimal situation, a 10-minute charge can add up to 300 km (186 mi) of range. So, despite having a similar kilowatt charge rate as the Porsche Taycan, the A6 should add more miles of range when plugged in for the same amount of time due to its higher efficiency.
