New A6 e-tron available to order soon


Audi's new A6 e-tron electric model will be available to order in Ireland from September, writes Brian Byrne. There will also be a more powerful S6 e-tron version.

The completely new car has a fastback style with very smooth lines and a consequent very low drag factor of 0.21, and it will also be available in an avant wagon format.

Design features include very slim headlights and a new version of the traditional trapezoidal front design reflecting the no longer required radiator grille.

Rated power consumptions are 14-17kWh/100km, and estimated range of up to 750km depending on version.

The infotainment system will include access to a range of applications including news and music services.

Pricing in Ireland is yet to come.
