Audi has finally introduced the coupe-SUV body style to the Q6 E-Tron line-up increasing their electric portfolio to six models. The Q6 E-Tron ‘Sportback’ (that’s coupe-SUV in Audi say) debuts in both standard as well as the high-performance S(Q6) version. After making their public premiere at the Paris Motor Show 2024, both the models of the Q6 Sportback line-up will go on sale next year as MY2025.

With the sloping silhouette, the Sportback roof is lowered by 37mm which has helped the overall aerodynamic drag coefficient. The coefficient has gone down from 0.28 of the standard Q6 to 0.26. Despite the reduced height of the Sportback, the boot space remains good enough at 511 litres (standard Q6 offers 526 litres) which can be expanded up to 1373 litres when the rear seats are tumbled down. More storage comes in the form of 64 litres of frunk and 25 litres of cubby spaces inside the cabin.

For the design, the German carmaker claims the sloping roofline resembles the original Audi TT. The fascia remains unchanged over the standard Q6 while the tail lamp design also remains unchanged. But adding style to the rear is a boot-mounted spoiler that sticks out of the bottom of the windscreen.

On the inside, there’s the familiar MMI panoramic display seen on all modern-day Audis. There’s a 100 per cent polyester used for the cabin along with Anthracite fabric, birch wood stone grey materials and soft touchpoints from elastic mélange fabric – all these materials are recycled as well.

As for the powertrain, there are two battery packs on offer. The 82kWh being the entry-level variant offers an RWD configuration with an output of 248 hp and takes seven seconds for the 0-100kmph sprint. There’s also a 304bhp version that can sprint in 6.6 seconds thanks to its dual-motor setup. Go for the 387bhp version and the same sprint time goes down to 5.9 seconds.

Other Upcoming Audi Models are the New Q3, New Q5, New A5, E Concept and New A6
