Audi is entering the final phase of development for its innovative model, the Q6 e-tron, the first vehicle to be built on the new Premium Platform Electric (PPE). To celebrate this development, selected media representatives have been invited for exclusive test drives of the Q6 e-tron prototype. These trials will allow firsthand experiences and feedback to be shared directly with Audi’s Technical Development team. The event will also showcase the new lighting technologies incorporated in the Audi Q6 e-tron.
Why It Matters
The introduction of the Audi Q6 e-tron initiates the most extensive model drive in Audi’s history. With the unique architecture of the PPE, developed jointly by Audi and Porsche, this car represents a pivotal shift in the industry. Designed exclusively for electric vehicles, the PPE supports a wide range of models across the mid-size and luxury segments. With scalable battery size and wheelbase, it facilitates the creation of SUV and CUV models with high floors as well as flat-floor models like the Sportback or Avant.
