2025 Audi Q6 e-tron globally unveiled

Audi will launch the 2025 Q6 e-tron in Europe later this year.

Audi has taken the wraps off its new Q6 e-tron and SQ6 e-tron electric SUVs.

The 2025 Audi Q6 e-tron is the brand's first model to be underpinned by the latest Scalable Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture from the Volkswagen Group. The new platform also underpins the recently unveiled Porsche Macan EV - also part of the VW Group. The PPE platform features two electric motors with a rear bias for power & weight and is equipped with an 800-volt system.

Starting with the design, the 2025 Q6 e-tron features a blanked-off grille at the front, flanked by sleek LED light clusters and an LED light bar at the back. A faux diffuser, tapered roofline and large air intakes at the front add to the styling elements of the electric SUV. Audi states that the new Q6 e-tron measures 4,771 mm in length, 1,993 mm in width and 1,648 mm in height. It has a wheelbase of 2,899 mm.

Inside, a single curved pane integrates both an 11.9-inch digital instrument cluster and a 14.5-inch touchscreen infotainment. There is also an additional 10.9-inch display for the front passenger. Other features include a head-up display, a 22-speaker Bang&Olufsen audio system, a suite of safety and connected tech and a large spacious cabin using recycled material all around.

As mentioned before, Audi has unveiled two variants of the electric SUV - the standard Q6 e-tron and the performance-focused SQ6 e-tron. Both variants are powered by a 100 kWh battery pack, offering a claimed range of 625 km on a single charge. In terms of power output, the standard Q6 e-tron produces 382 BHP while the SQ6 churns out 483 BHP. These power outputs can be increased to 456 BHP and 510 BHP, respectively, with the launch control function.

The Audi Q6 e-tron claims a 0-100 km/h time of 5.9 seconds in standard mode and 5 seconds using launch control. The SQ6 version, on the other hand, sprints from 0-100km/h in 4.2 seconds. Audi also claims that the 2025 Q6 e-tron comes with up to 270 kW DC fast-charging capabilities; allowing for a 10-80% charge up in just 21 minutes. Audi also claims that a 10-min charge can add up to 255 km of range on the Q6 e-tron.

Audi will launch the 2025 Q6 e-tron in Europe later this year. The electric SUV will also make its way to the Indian market. Pricing for the Q6 e-tron will be revealed closer to launch.
