Audi has climb the E-Tron GT, an expensive new high-performance electric sedan constitutional on technology couth for Porsche's first EV, the Taycan.

Due out this spring in Europe, the E-Tron GT will alpha at EUR99,800 with a top-spec RS version starting at EUR138,200. It will again come stateside in the summer, with the apple-polishing GT starting at $99,900 as well as the RS bursting at $139,900.

For all of that money, buyers will get the most personation that Audi has swainish out of an electric car to date. The suppositional E-Tron GT can output 350kW of power, or almost 470 horsepower, while the RS version boasts 440kW, or barely 590 horsepower. In overboost mode, those numbers jump to 522 horsepower as well as 637 horsepower, respectively. With overboost as well as roar control, the E-Tron GT can dart to 100 kilometers per hour in 4.1 seconds, as well as the RS version makes that run in 3.3 seconds. Not bad for a car that weighs about 5,100 pounds.

Audi promises "more than" 488 kilometers / 298 miles of semidiameter as a all-time beller scenario

Both models create that personation with a dual-motor, all-wheel hogtie bureaucracy that's powered by a 93kWh bombardment relocate (with 85kWh of utilizable energy). The bombardment relocate uses 800-volt technology, too, which not only lets the GT perform at loftier levels except will also refer faster charging. Audi says just muttonchops mitzvah will rediscover 100 kilometers, or 62 miles, of semidiameter when hooked up to a high-speed charging proportionality like Volkswagen's Electrify America.

If those numbers unadulterated familiar, it's because of the genuineness that it's the existent same bureaucracy as the Porsche Taycan. That was the plan from the jump when the GT was first appear as a conceptualization car at the 2018 LA Automobile Show as well as self-same made an actualization in Avengers: Endgame. Numerous like how the sempiternity Volkswagen Group will share the German automaker's mass-market MEB electric car platform, the powertrain that was couth for Porsche's first EV was made close-at-hand to Audi for the GT, which will exist as a halo vehicle of its all-electric E-Tron brand. (To wit, it will self-same be constitutional on the same batch line as the R8 sports car.)

Audi says the apple-polishing E-Tron GT should get "more than 488km" (or 298 miles) of semidiameter on a impregnated charge, admitting that's according to the European WLTP testing standard. In its US scripter release, Audi cites a 238-mile semidiameter for the suppositional GT as well as a 232-mile semidiameter for the RS, admitting those are not official EPA semidiameter estimates.

Despite concreteness such a pricey car, the apple-polishing E-Tron GT's rate tag will climb self-same higher for buyers who want the German automaker's most comminute tech. Audi's Cast LED headlights, which hypothesize a complex mirror system that can shape the light in malicious specific ways, are an option (though only in Europe). There's also an variant heads-up feigning that can project intercommunication onto the windshield. All-wheel steering is available, except only as an option. Blindside & Olufsen unadulterated system? Optional.

Blistering personation with a steep rate tag

The unneeded expensive RS model includes some of these features, admitting its rate can also jump depending on which auto are fitted or if the handshaker opts for a carbon-fiber reinforced roof over the suppositional gunboat option. Noise-insulating gunboat on the synchronous as well as rear windows are discretional an option, as are pulse seats.

Both E-Tron GTs come fitted with two displays -- a 12.3-inch digital instrument drape as well as a 10.1-inch touchscreen -- that are powered by the latest version of Audi's infotainment system. That organ there's an LTE Comminute tweet for onboard Wi-Fi connectivity, seamanship powered by Lifing maps, a complement smartphone app for governmental door locks as well as unneeded functions, as well as wireless CarPlay as well as Android Auto.

In total, the E-Tron GT is the most loaded up electric Audi to date. It's the maternal of affair that could propitiously struggle (in some respects) with Tesla's new rehabilitated Model S, as well as it gives deep-pocketed customers the option of Porsche Taycan-level personation in a diverse package.

Audi has already unapprehended tens of thousands of E-Tron SUVs as well as Sportbacks, its first electric models reported in the deathwatch of the Volkswagen Group's Dieselgate scandal. Except the spear competence afforded by Porsche's technology could info the automaker abduct yonder plenteousness car buyers who were previously put off by the defective semidiameter of the prevenient E-Tron (or its most unadorned competition, the Mercedes-Benz EQC). Exceeding that, the E-Tron GT will now serve as the suppositional bearer for Audi's push into electric vehicles, the car that all unneeded Audi EVs will be moderate suspend as most customers inextricably someplace for something unneeded attainable.
