What's the story
Audi is gearing up to reveal the new-generation A6 Avant e-tron for the global markets soon.

With Audi's commitment to having 30 EVs by 2025, the A6 Avant E-Tron could be a significant addition to their line-up, offering advanced powertrain technology.

Its overall design hints at the EV's performance-focused nature
The Audi A6 Avant e-tron's test mule showcases a camouflaged front clip with sleek LED headlamps and secondary lights mounted beneath. The lower light section sits on the top of larger side vents, reaching down to the bottom of the fascia. The vehicle's low, sleek stance and e-tron branding indicate that it could be a high-performance model. It aligns with Audi's goal of making EVs account for 50% of their sales by 2030.
What Next?
It will be built on the new PPE platform
The A6 Avant e-tron is anticipated to feature a powertrain similar to the Q6 e-tron. The latter boasts dual electric motors in an all-wheel-drive configuration and develops 469hp. Built on the PPE (Premium Platform Electric) architecture, the exact technical details of the powertrain remain unknown. Audi is expected to release more details regarding the launch of the A6 e-tron in the coming weeks. It will also be shedding light on its advanced powertrain technology and performance capabilities.
