This stellar addition to Audi’s electric SUV family showcases the Vorsprung durch Technik design ethos, resulting in a package of powerful performance, impressive range, and heightened efficiency.
As the first production model on the Premium Platform Electric (PPE), the Q6 e-tron marks an important milestone in Audi’s shift towards premium electric mobility. The Audi Q6 e-tron and sportier sister, the SQ6 e-tron, will be open for ordering 30th April 2024 with the first customer orders expected to arrive in August.
Whilst the Audi Q6 e-tron is full of incredible technology and features, here are some of our favourites:
Impressive Range
The Audi Q6 e-tron has an amazing range and exceptional charging performance. Its powerful and efficient electric motors, combined with a newly developed lithium-ion battery, ensure a remarkable range of up 381 miles.
The introduction of the Audi SQ6 e-tron also takes this a step further, on a full charge it is a maximum range of up to 361 miles and has a power output of 490 PS which results in a 0-62 mph acceleration time of just 4.4 seconds.
Rapid charging has also been made possible with the 270 kW DC charging capacity which results in 10-80% charge in just 21 minutes.
Beautiful Design
Typical of any Audi SUV, the Q6 e-tron boasts a striking design, positioning it in the premium midsize segment. The design language of the Q6 e-tron is a vivid symphony of soft shapes, creases, and edges. Noteworthy features such as the completely closed Singleframe and the high-positioned digital daytime running lights give the model a robust, distinctive, and sporty appearance.
Eye catching alloy wheels ranging from 19” – 21” add to the curated design and will make the Q6 stand out on the roads.
Interior Elements
Luxury and comfort are at the centre of the Q6’s user-centric interior design. The interior creates a space that caters to the occupants' comfort with a 3D and high-contrast design. The Audi MMI panoramic display and the MMI passenger display form a visually clear digital stage. The use of high-quality materials, some of which are recycled, in the seats mirror the colours and materials across the interior, emphasizing a homely ambience.
With plenty of legroom in the second row of seats and ample cargo space, it comfortably accommodates five passengers, providing the ideal blend of style, comfort, and practicality.
Technology updates

Especially for the front passengers, we've added the 10.9-inch MMI front passenger display with Active Privacy Mode, enabling them to assist with navigation, stream content, or look for a charging station without distracting the driver.
