2025 Audi Q6 e-Tron harnesses EV architecture from Porsche
- Audi’s first model built on the Premium Platform Electric (PPE) is the Q6 e-Tron, which is dedicated to Audi’s even-numbered models like the Q6. Odd-numbered models like the Q5 are built on the corresponding Premium Platform Combustion (PPC).
- The 2025 Audi Q6 and the sportier SQ6 boast a range of up to 321 miles and 275 miles, respectively. Upcoming A6 sportback sedan will even have a range of up to 390 miles.
- The Q6 uses an improved motor with hairpin wiring and a direct oil-spray cooling system in the motor’s stator, which creates a rotating magnetic field to enhance performance.
- It also contains a 100 kWh Lithium-ion battery pack with a total gross capacity of 100 kWh. Plugged into a DC fast charger, the Q6 can be charged 10 to 80 percent in about 21 minutes.
- Audi has fully embraced an 800-volt architecture, which enables it to reduce weight and complexity while increasing range.
- The Q6 uses an electric motor built in a production plant in Hungary that has produced over 500,000 electric motors since 2018.
- The motor's oil spray cooling system helps reduce reliance on rare Earth materials and increases energy density by up to 60%.
- The advanced B-mode in the system’s one-pedal system feature allows drivers to determine how much they want to conserve energy.
- Audi has updated its in-cabin technology which was already considered to be at the top of its game in regard to infotainment systems.
- The Q6's new curve works around the customers' feedback, who want a larger burst of charging in a shorter amount of time.
