As mentioned earlier the e-tron Quattro concept is a precursor to the Audi Q6 electric SUV and the rendering surely shows quite a bit of resemblance to the latter. The e-tron Quattro concept is based on the company’s MLB platform and comes with an “Aerosthetics” design theme that reduces the aerodynamic drag while maintaining the design creativity. The new exterior features include a sloping roofline, some sporty curves, some major use of plastic under body cladding with flared wheel arches and big sporty alloys.
Audi also claims that the SUV will features movable aerodynamic elements at the front, on the sides, and at the rear improve the air flow around the car. These new additions will result is a drag coefficient of just 0.25, which according to the company is for the first time in the SUV segment.
The SUV will be powered by three electric motors with the first one positioned on the front axle and two at the rear. Even the lithium-ion battery is strategically placed between the two axles below the passenger compartment, thereby imparting the SUV with a low centre of gravity and better weight distribution. The all-wheel drive electric SUV will be capable of 500 kilometres on a single charge.
Even the inside if the cabin is believed to be quite spacious thanks to the motor and battery arrangement, coupled with the flat floor. Moreover the driver-oriented cockpit will virtually come with no physical buttons and knobs and will be majorly operated by touch-operated displays.
