Drive and recuperation

Highly integrated components, compact design, and optimised in-house production
30 percent less installation space required for electric motors, weight of motors reduced by around 20 percent
Focus on efficiency, acoustics, and modular design
Use of ASM (asynchronous motor) on the front axle and PSM (permanent-magnet synchronous motor) on the rear axle
Hairpin winding maximises current flow in the stator of the electric motor
Rotor and stator with an innovative direct cooling system
Energy-efficient silicon carbide semiconductors in pulse inverters
Dry sump lubrication and electric oil pump in the gearbox
Optimised acoustics thanks to mounts cast into the housing
Direct oil cooling of the electric motors for increased power density
Avoidance of heavy rare earths as far as possible
At market launch, there are two performance levels for each body style:
Audi A6 Sportback e-tron performance: 270 kW system output, rear-wheel drive,macceleration 0-100 km/h in 5.4 seconds
Audi A6 Avant e-tron performance: 270 kW system output, rear-wheel drive, acceleration 0-100 km/h in 5.4 seconds
Audi S6 Sportback e-tron: 370 kW system output (405 kW with launch control), quattro, acceleration 0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds (with launch control)
Audi S6 Avant e-tron: 370 kW system output (405 kW with launch control), quattro, acceleration 0-100 km/h in 3.9 seconds (launch control)

Top speed of the A6 Sportback e-tron performance up to 210 km/h, S model up to 240 km/h
Recuperation with high efficiency and availability
Up to 220 kW of regenerative braking possible
Brake blending for a smooth and consistent pedal feel
Axis-specific blending is possible

Battery, charging, and intelligent thermal management

Lithium-ion battery with a gross storage capacity of 100 kWh (net 94.9 kWh)
Maximum charging power of up to 270 kW at corresponding high-performance chargers (HPC)
11 kW charging power with alternating current (AC), 22 kW planned in the life cycle
Twelve modules with 180 prismatic cells (15 cells connected in series)
Later entry-level variant with ten modules and a gross storage capacity of 83 kWh
Cell chemistry enables around 30 percent higher energy density
Battery integrated into the vehicle’s crash structure and cooling system
Homogeneous heat transfer thanks to the cooling plate integrated into the battery housing
Underbody protection made of fibre composite material saves weight
High-voltage battery assembly at the headquarters in Ingolstadt
Battery Management Controller (BMCe) regulates current
HV battery from PPE enables efficient bank charging at 400-volt charging stations
Predictive thermal management
Thermal management enables post and continuous conditioning of the HV battery
Battery heater for preconditioning the HV battery

Chassis and steering

The proven Audi DNA also characterises the suspension and steering components – impressive driving dynamics and first-class comfort
Front axle with improved steering behaviour for optimised road holding and driving dynamics
High steering precision and more steering feel with adapted software for flat-floor concept
Audi A6 e-tron (Sportback and Avant) with dynamic suspension featuring steel springs with sporty, dynamic characteristic and good comfort as standard; air suspension is available as an option
Audi S6 e-tron with sporty air suspension “adaptive air suspension” as standard (high comfort, level control, and different trim positions)
Low ride height in drive select mode efficiency for maximum improvement in aerodynamics and more range
S6 e-tron: different dimensioning of the electric motors on the rear and front axles and rear-biased torque distribution for dynamic handling
Depending on the variant and equipment, either equipped with special, rolling resistance and energy consumption-optimised or particularly high-grip performance tires

^[1] Audi understands net-zero CO₂ emissions to mean a situation in which, after other possible reduction measures have been exhausted, the company offsets the carbon emitted by Audi’s products or activities and/or the carbon emissions that currently cannot be avoided in the supply chain, manufacturing, and recycling of Audi vehicles through voluntary offsetting projects carried out worldwide. In this context, carbon emissions generated during a vehicle’s utilisation stage, i.e. from the moment it is delivered to the customer, are not taken into account.
