Pure sportiness and progressive luxury
Audi has unveiled the production version of its e-tron GT – an Audi, the likes of which, the world has never seen. The four-door high performance coupe is a demonstration of how fascinating and exciting electric mobility is – the start of a new era, the Gran Turismo of the future.
In the interior, the Audi e-tron GT quattro² offers plenty of everyday usability paired with the highest quality.
The panoramic glass sunroof with its continuous gloss black conveys a generous sense of space in the interior.
Manufacturing the electrically powered gran turismo in the Böllinger Höfe, close to Neckarsulm, is where attention to detail meets precision and quality.
The design of the Audi e-tron GT quattro² is a rigorous embodiment of electric mobility and unmistakeable Audi DNA.
The proportions of a gran turismo – flat and wide with a long wheelbase – make it clear that this is where sportiness meets everyday usability. The sculptural design of the body epitomises power and performance.
Aerodynamically optimised shapes become functional details. From the intelligent air inlets at the front to the vented wheel arches and the striking rear diffuser.
The optional matrix LED headlights with Audi laser light are a fundamental aspect of a progressive design language. One unmistakeable statement is the striking light signature with the blue X element of the Audi laser light.
Another animated light strip stretches across the full width of the rear, framed at its outer edges by individual V-shaped LED segments within the lighting units themselves. This double reversing light and indicator function is a first for Audi.
The panoramic glass sunroof welcomes the horizon on board and creates a bright interior flooded with light.
The Audi e-tron GT quattro² is a modern-day demonstration of progress. It radiates sportiness, exclusivity and comfort. The sport seats plus, front with integrated head restraints also feature shaped seat side bolsters to provide good lateral support for cornering and sporty driving.
Navigate, communicate, obtain information or enjoy the wide range of infotainment options. Using a thrilling operating concept.
The designers opted to use resource-efficient materials. For example, the completely leather-free interior.
The functional centre is located at the front, visibly focused on the driver’s position, framed by the centre console and the cockpit with its touchscreen.
The distinctive outer rear seats with an additional, central seat option emphasise the sporty character.
The performance of the Audi e-tron GT quattro² is also evident during charging: at up to 270 kW at 800-volt charging stations – as standard. It takes approx. 5 minutes to charge enough power for the next 100 km. Around 22.5 minutes will take the battery charge from 5 % back up to approx. 80 %.
The Audi e-tron GT quattro² can be charged at a maximum alternating current (AC) charging capacity of 11 kW as standard. Faster charging at 22 kW at home requires the optional e-tron charging system connect in combination with the optional on-board charger up to 22 kW (AC).
The 800-volt lithium-ion battery integrated into the flat underbody, offers extremely high performance – both when charging and when driving. In combination with the recuperation system, it provides a range of up to 487 km according to the WLTP measurement procedure.
In combination with the electric drive system, the fully variable quattro drive ensures power is distributed intelligently to the individual wheels. When sufficient traction is available, it sends power primarily to the front axle.
Depending on the driving situation, the aerodynamics can be actively adjusted, by way of two settings for the rear wing as well as the cooling air inlets at the front.
Optional aerodynamically optimised wheels round off the efficient and high-performance vehicle concept.
