Robot manufacturing marks a milestone as the first Audi Q6 e-tron is produced using 97% automated processes

The much-anticipated Audi Q6 e-tron, the first production model on the Premium Platform Electric (PPE), is set to make its debut in the market. Starting from March 2024, customers can place their orders, with deliveries expected in summer of the same year.

This premium electric SUV promises impressive driving and charging performance, increased efficiency, and a long range, setting new standards in e-performance, range, and charging. The Q6 e-tron boasts a range of up to 625 km (388 mi) and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.9 seconds.

The Audi Q6 e-tron is equipped with the newly developed electronic architecture E 1.2, which is future-proof, standardized, and geared towards customer requirements. This technology powers the new infotainment system that uses Android Automotive OS as its operating system, offering a wide range of apps and always up-to-date content.

The interior of the Q6 e-tron features the Digital Stage, a fully connected and digital interior based on the new electronic architecture. The Audi MMI panoramic display and the MMI passenger display provide a generous and airy feeling of space. The Audi MMI panoramic display, with a curved design and OLED technology, consists of the 11.9-inch Audi virtual cockpit and the 14.5-inch MMI touch display.

The driving dynamics of the Q6 e-tron are significantly influenced by the partially redesigned front axle, with the control arms positioned in front of the suspension arms. The rear-biased torque distribution as part of a highly variable all-wheel drive system enhances the dynamic driving characteristics of the Q6 e-tron.

The Q6 e-tron comes with 800-volt technology and a maximum charging capacity of 270 kW as standard, ensuring quick and efficient charging. The optional Augmented Reality Head-Up Display reflects a large tilted image plane across the windshield towards the driver, showing relevant information such as speed, traffic signs, assistance, and navigation symbols.

The Bang & Olufsen Premium sound system in the Q6 e-tron drives 20 loudspeakers with 830 watts of power, including four integrated into the headrests of the front seats. This state-of-the-art audio system promises an immersive and enjoyable driving experience.

The Audi Q6 e-tron quattro and SQ6 e-tron will be priced at 74,700 and 93,800 euros respectively, making this premium electric SUV an attractive option for those seeking a blend of luxury, performance, and sustainability. The Q6 e-tron embodies Vorsprung durch Technik, Audi's philosophy of progressive and innovative design, technology, and engineering.

While the person who presented the Audi Q6 e-tron quattro and SQ6 e-tron 2024 is not explicitly named in the available sources, the excitement surrounding this new model is palpable. The Audi Q6 e-tron is poised to redefine the electric SUV landscape with its perfect proportions, long wheelbase, and high level of everyday usability.
