Audi e-tron quattro concept Electric SUV Coming In 2018

The Audi e-tron quattro concept uses one electric motor to drive the front axle and two others act on the rear axle for a total output of 429 horsepower, sprints from  a standstill to 62.1 mph in 4.6 seconds and reaches an electronically governed top speed of 130.5 mph. “Audi will present an all-electric, luxury-class sport SUV in early 2018. The Audi e-tron quattro concept provides a concrete foretaste of this,” says Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg, Member of the Audi Board of Management for Technical Development.

Audi e-tron quattro Concept With A Range Of More Than 310 Miles

The Audi e-tron quattro concept is an electric SUV positioned between the Audi Q5 and the Q7 in size, so a Q6 on that metric, and borrows from the Audi R8 e-tron sports car for the drive system, with a predicted range of more than 310 miles. Audi will show the e-tron quattro SUV concept at the Frankfurt Auto Show next month. This will compete with Tesla's Model X electric SUV coming soon for those already in line and early next year for new reservations. Currently the maximum posted range for Tesla is 270 miles.
