2020 Audi e-tron Sportback

The 2020 Audi e-tron Sportback is a dynamic SUV coupe offering up to 300 kW of power and a range of up to 277.1 miles from a single battery charge.

With the octagonal Singleframe, the powerful contours above the wheels, and the sculptural rear end, the Audi e-tron Sportback is perfectly aligned with the brand's design idiom. Details signal to the outside world that the SUV coupe is fully electric.

In the lower area of the matrix LED headlights, four horizontal segments create the e-tron-specific signature in the daytime running lights. Their black inlays draw the eye to where the battery, and thus the energy center, of the Audi e-tron Sportback are found. Designers also varied the signature at the broad diffuser, drawing attention to the absence of exhaust tailpipes.

Electric all-wheel drive ensures outstanding traction and dynamism on any terrain. It continuously regulates the ideal drive torque distribution between both axles within fractions of a second. In most driving situations, the Audi e-tron Sportback relies exclusively on its rear electric motor-for exceptional efficiency. If the driver requests more output than it can provide, the front unit is instantly activated. This also happens predictively before slip occurs in icy conditions or when cornering fast, or if the car understeers or oversteers.

The Audi e-tron Sportback 55 quattro allows the driver to savor the interaction of efficiency, performance, and supreme calm. Each axle is fitted with an asynchronous electric motor that is fed with three-phase current by the power electronics. With an output of 265 kW and 413.8 lb-ft of torque, the two standard electric motors pack a powerful punch in launching the SUV coupe from a standstill -- emissions-free and in virtual silence.

Audi also offers the all-electric drive SUV coupe with a second motor variant. The e-tron Sportback 50 quattro generates 230 kW of output and 398.3 lb-ft of torque.
