Audi of America has revealed the estimated range specifications and delivery timings for the highly anticipated 2025 Q6 e-tron. This all-new model is set to arrive in U.S. dealerships in the fourth quarter of 2024, bringing Audi’s electrification efforts to the forefront of the mid-size luxury SUV segment.
A New Era of Audi Electrification
The Q6 e-tron and its sportier counterpart, the SQ6 e-tron, represent Audi’s fourth fully electric model line. As the first Audi model built on the all-new Premium Platform Electric (PPE), the Q6 e-tron sets a new benchmark for the brand by balancing driving dynamics, range, lighting, infotainment technologies, and everyday usability. This launch is a significant step forward in Audi’s commitment to “Vorsprung durch Technik” or “progress through technology.”
Performance and Range
The 2025 Audi Q6 e-tron will be available in two initial models in the U.S.: the Q6 e-tron quattro® and the SQ6 e-tron. Both models come standard with all-wheel drive. The Q6 e-tron quattro® offers 422 hp (456 hp with launch control) and is expected to achieve a 0-60 mph time of 4.9 seconds. It boasts an estimated electric range of 307 miles on the EPA test cycle. The SQ6 e-tron delivers 483 hp (509 hp with launch control) and can accelerate from 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds, with an estimated range of 276 miles.
These impressive performance metrics are a testament to Audi’s commitment to delivering exhilarating driving experiences even in their electric vehicles. The combination of power and range ensures that the Q6 e-tron models cater to both the performance enthusiast and the daily commuter.
Advanced Battery Technology
The Q6 e-tron features an 800-volt lithium-ion battery pack with a total gross capacity of 100 kWh (94.4 kWh net). This advanced battery technology enables a maximum DC fast-charging capacity of 270 kW, allowing the vehicle to charge from 10% to 80% in about 21 minutes. Audi’s Plug & Charge function streamlines the charging process at selected public stations, further enhancing convenience for drivers.
The battery’s design not only supports rapid charging but also ensures longevity and efficiency, making the Q6 e-tron a practical choice for long-term ownership. Additionally, Audi’s network of charging stations and partnerships aims to make finding a charging point as convenient as possible, reducing range anxiety for drivers.
Cutting-Edge Design and Technology
The exterior design of the Q6 e-tron combines dynamic proportions with new design elements, creating a sporty and elegant appearance. Inside, the vehicle offers a spacious and practical interior, with up to 60.2 cubic feet of storage space when the rear seats are folded down. The new Digital Stage infotainment system features an 11.9-inch Audi OLED virtual cockpit and a 14.5-inch center touch OLED display, providing a highly connected and immersive user experience.
This new infotainment system supports over-the-air updates, ensuring that the vehicle’s software remains up-to-date without requiring a visit to the dealership. The integration of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) further enhances safety and comfort, making every drive more relaxing and enjoyable.
Future Models and Variants
The Q6 e-tron family will continue to expand, with future models including rear-wheel drive, a sleek Sportback variant, and more potent RS versions expected to join the U.S. lineup from 2025 onward. These upcoming models will provide even more options for consumers, catering to different preferences and driving styles.
Conclusion
Audi’s launch of the 2025 Q6 e-tron in America marks a significant milestone in the brand’s electrification journey, offering a seamless EV ownership experience with advanced technology, impressive range, and dynamic performance. As the automotive industry continues to shift towards electric vehicles, the Q6 e-tron stands out as a compelling option for those looking to embrace the future of mobility without compromising on luxury or performance.
