The S6 e-tron is shaping up to be the perfect modern performance-luxury EV for real-world driving: fast, stylish, quiet, luxurious — without being an overkill track car.

Let me know!
The new Audi S6 e-tron is coming, and it's going to be a major shift for Audi's S performance lineup.
Here’s the latest full scoop:
Audi S6 e-tron Overview (Early 2025 Launch Expected):
- Platform:
- Built on Audi's new PPE (Premium Platform Electric), co-developed with Porsche (also used by the new Porsche Macan Electric and Audi Q6 e-tron).
- Means super-fast charging, excellent range, and next-gen driving dynamics.
- Powertrain:
- Dual motors (AWD standard).
- Around 510 hp and up to 750 Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque.
- 0–100 km/h (~0–62 mph) estimated at under 4.5 seconds.
- This is faster than the current gas S6!
- Battery:
- ~100 kWh usable battery size (same as Q6 e-tron).
- Range expected to be ~600 km WLTP (~370 miles EPA estimate ~310 miles).
- 800-volt architecture — meaning ultra-fast charging (~10% to 80% in ~25 minutes with a 270 kW charger).
- Chassis:
- Air suspension standard.
- Rear-axle steering available.
- Sportier dynamic tuning compared to the regular A6 e-tron.
- Interior:
- Minimalist, high-tech cabin with floating screens.
- Latest MMI with integrated Android Automotive OS.
- Audi premium materials (Alcantara, leather, real metal trims).
- Design:
- Sleeker, coupe-like sedan styling (think modern A7 Sportback proportions).
- Big S-style wheels (20–21 inches), lowered stance, aggressive front fascia, illuminated grille panel.
- Matrix LED and laser headlights options.
How It Fits:
- Not a full RS model — S6 e-tron is meant to be the sporty daily driver, not a crazy track monster.
- Competes against:
- BMW i5 M60
- Tesla Model S Dual Motor
- Mercedes EQE AMG 43
- Audi is focusing on balance: real luxury, usable range, strong (but not insane) speed, and superfast charging — exactly what most premium customers want.
