    2025 Audi Q6 e-tron

    [​IMG]

    Audi has released the EPA estimated range for its all-new and upcoming 2025 Q6 e-tron. Expected to arrive in U.S. dealerships in Q4 of 2024, the all-new mid-size Q6 e-tron will be built on an all-new Premium Platform Electric (PPE). The Q6 e-tron and SQ6 e-tron will be the brand’s fourth fully electric model line.

    The Q6 e-tron marks the launch of the brand’s latest infotainment system with an all-new user interface and next-generation of the brand’s characteristic advanced lighting technology.

    With a preliminary estimated range of more than 300 miles, the quattro AWD and 270 kW DC fast-charging capabilities are just a start as a future RWD Q6 e-tron, a Sportback, and even more potent RS will be announced in 2025.

    2025 Audi Q6 e-tron EV Drivetrain

    The 2025 AWD Audi Q6 e-tron w/ 19” alloys will arrive with its two motors outputting 422 hp that can propel the mid-size CUV to 60 mph in under 5-seconds, a top speed of 130 mph, and 307 miles of range.

    The performance oriented SQ6 e-tron w/ 20” alloys makes 483 hp drives the SQ6 to 60 in just over 4-seconds, a top speed of 143 mph, and an EPA electric range of 275 miles.

    Both the Q6 e-tron and SQ6 e-tron models feature 5-link independent front and rear suspensions with a tow rating of 4,400 pounds.

    The Q6 e-tron is powered by a new, and 30% smaller and 20% lighter, asynchronous AC induction motor (ASM) on the front axle and newly designed permanently excited synchronous AC motor (PSM) at the rear.

    The electric motors efficiency was improved with stator windings using a new hairpin design, silicon carbide semiconductors in the pulse width modulating inverter, and a dry-sump electric oil pump in the transmission. In total, losses caused by drag in the electric drive systems were reduced by approximately 50 percent from the first-generation Audi electric drives.

    What I am really excited about is the Audi’s all-new battery size and charging capability!

    As part of its new PPE architecture, the 2025 Q6 e-tron features an entirely new battery structure operating at 800 volts. The 100 kWh Li-ion battery pack (up from 82 kWh) provides 94.4 kWh net. Directly from the Audi RS comes a DCFC cap of 270 kW allowing a 5 to 80% charging time of just 21-minutes thanks also in part to a new preconditioning feature and new predictive thermal management.

    And from the late model, 1st gen Porsche Taycan, if the Q6 e-tron is attached to an EA 150 kW for example, it can bank charge. The 800V battery is automatically divided into two batteries at equal voltage, which can then be charged in parallel at up to 135 kW. Depending on the state of charge, both halves of the battery are first equalized and then charged simultaneously, shortening overall recharge times.

    Like all Audi e-trons, the Q6 e-tron will include Plug & Charge. At a compatible Electrify America charging station, the Plug & Charge feature will automatically authorize and confirm billing via encrypted vehicle to infrastructure (V2i) communication; activating the charger when the charging plug is inserted into the vehicle, forgoing the need to produce a credit card or RFID payment at the charger.

    Standard is a 9.6 kW, L2 AC onboard charger with a 19.2 kW (240V/80A) unit available later.

    The Q6 e-tron regen system can absorb ~ 95 percent of everyday braking events and is more seamless than other e-trons. The regenerative brakes have five different modes, including a One-Pedal Drive B-mode that will bring the vehicle to a complete stop at braking forces up to 0.25 g with no creep. Three manual deceleration modes controlled by the steering-wheel paddles all provide the familiar low-speed creep found in combustion vehicles and can be set for strong deceleration (0.15 g), medium deceleration (0.06 g) or coasting. Leave it on coasting obviously. A fifth deceleration mode, Auto, helps optimize efficiency by utilizing the forward-facing camera to determine if regenerative braking or coasting is more efficient depending on traffic and road gradient, while also providing low-speed creep.

    The Predictive thermal management uses data from the navigation system to calculate the need for battery cooling or heating in advance so that it can charge faster, reducing charging time. The thermal management system also works with the vehicle’s navigation system to determine if there is a steep grade ahead and adjusts the battery’s temperature by appropriate cooling it to prevent a higher thermal stress.

    If the driver selects efficiency mode, the conditioning of the battery is activated later which increases range.

    Post- and continuous conditioning in the PPE thermal management system can extended battery service life. These functions monitor the battery temperature for the car’s entire service life to help ensure the battery is kept in the optimal temperature range, such as after a high-speed-charging session, or even when the vehicle is not moving – for example in case of very hot weather.

    2025 Audi Q6 e-tron EV Exterior/Interior Design

    With a 187.8 in. length, 76.3 in. width, 66.6 in. height, and a wheelbase of 113.7 in., the Q6 e-tron offers a spacious interior and excellent visibility from the elevated seating position.

    The long wheelbase with short overhangs brings about an athletic stance that is as always, eye catching.

    The closed Singleframe grille, first found on the e-tron GT and a pair of DRLs above the optional LED headlamps make the front end really pop imho.

    Thanks to the new PPE, the interior offers 38.5-inches of front headroom, and an excellent 30.2 cu ft of storage space behind the second row. When the rear seats are folded, storage space increases up to 60.2 cu ft. The rear seats can be folded down separately in a 40:20:40 configuration, and an additional small storage volume is available in the frunk.

    Like all Audi’s, high-quality materials abound and extend from the seats, into the doors, and across the entire cockpit to the center console.

    2025 Audi Q6 e-tron EV Technology

    The 2025 Audi Q6 e-tron includes a new E3 “End-to-End Electronic architecture” high-performance electronic architecture. The new E3 1.2 architecture controls all vehicle functions, from infotainment and driving functions, through to TBA semi-automated driving. This new E3 1.2 electronic architecture was engineered to be applied across multiple model lines and will form the basis for future innovation.

    The Q6 e-tron has an all-new, fully connected digital interior called the Digital Stage with an 11.9” Audi OLED virtual cockpit in front of the driver and a 14.5-inch center OLED display, both integrated as one slim, free-standing, curved panoramic design oriented toward the driver.

    In addition, a 10.9-inch MMI passenger LCD display can be ordered. The front passenger display features Active Privacy Mode, which integrates active shuttering technology to prevent it from distracting the driver while moving images are displayed and the vehicle is in motion. This allows the front passenger to stream films or other video content, assist with navigation, or help find a charging station.

    The Audi Digital Stage can be further extended through to a second gen Augmented Reality (AR) Head-up Display (HuD). I am not a fan of HUDs but for those that love them, there you go.

    The new Audi infotainment system uses the Android Automotive operating system includes over-the-air (OTA) update capability.

    An all-new infotainment system is available with two different B & O Premium sound systems, with up to 830-watts. On models with the optional sport seats, the premium sound system drives 20 loudspeakers, including four integrated into the front-seat headrests, enabling sound zones for the first time in an Audi.

    The Q6 e-tron also integrates a new self-learning voice-activated system called Audi Assistant. Deeply integrated into the vehicle, Audi Assistant activity is displayed using an avatar in the central touch display of the MMI. The new voice assistant controls more than 800 functions, with more than 100 voice commands possible, and can understand 23 different languages. The system responds with surprising swiftness, and can also be activated via various touchpoints and via the myAudi app.

    2025 Audi Q6 e-tron EV Safety

    The standard Q6 e-tron ADAS features a completely new suite of features including Adaptive cruise control, Lane change warning, Exit warning, Collision avoidance assist, Emergency brake assist, Traffic sign recognition, swerve assist and front turn assist, and a distraction and drowsiness warning system. Also new with the Q6 e-tron is rear turn assist, which can help prevent or mitigate collisions at intersections, side roads, and garage entrances.

    Another new feature for the Q6 e-tron is the optional Adaptive cruise assist plus, which combines the functions of adaptive cruise control and the lane keeping assistant. The system helps with acceleration, maintaining speed, keeping safe following distances, as well as lane guidance by using the radar sensors, the front camera, and the ultrasonic sensors.

    Its little brother, the Q5 e PHEV is underwhelming. I was considering buying one but the specs for the 2025 still have the same meager capacity battery. OTOH it does have 362 HP combined. Too bad the trim level I want is nowhere to be found.

    2025 Audi Q6 e-tron Lineup is Expanding!

    [​IMG] 321-miles of all-electric range from the RWD base Q6 EV priced to start at just $63,800. ;)

    Wayne Gerdes – CleanMPG – Sept. 25, 2024

    2025 Audi Q6 e-tron

    [​IMG]

    Audi of America released full pricing and specifications for the all-new 2025 Q6 e-tron model line and announced an additional range-leading rear-wheel-drive (RWD) entry will join its line-up before the end of the year. With today’s announcement, Audi will have 11 distinct BEVs on offer across its four e-tron model lines.

    The introduction of the Q6 e-tron to the brand’s U.S. model portfolio later this year also marks the start of the most ambitious product introduction cadence in the brand’s history. The all-new Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture on which the Q6 e-tron is built on the new Premium Platform Combustion (PPC).

    The rear-wheel drive Audi Q6 e-tron joins the Q6 e-tron quattro and the SQ6 e-tron as the brand’s first model line using the all-new, technologically advanced PPE architecture and introduces new technologies including an all-new MMI user-interface supported by the brand’s all-new E3 electronics architecture. The addition of the RWD Q6 e-tron places the new model as the longest-range SUV in the brand’s growing BEV lineup, with the new model earning an EPA estimated driving range of 321 miles when equipped with the ultra-package. The Q6 e-tron sets the new standard for Audi electrification with impressive dynamics, advanced tech, and greater range than other e-tron model before it, all starting from $63,800.

    2025 Audi Q6 Powertrain

    The 2025 Audi Q6 e-tron will launch in the U.S. with three different derivatives before the end of 2024; the RWD Q6 e-tron, as well as AWD Q6 e-tron quattro and SQ6 e-tron models. All Q6 e-tron models are available in Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige trims sporting a 5-link independent front and rear suspension and rated to tow up to 4,400 pounds. Each model is fit with the same 100-kWh 800-volt battery pack capable of supporting DC fast-charge speeds of 270 kW (260 kW on RWD models), returning 10 to 80 percent state of charge (SoC) in as little as 21 minutes.

    The Q6 e-tron generates 302 hp (322 hp with launch control) through its single rear motor, helping to accelerate the SUV to 60 mph in 6.3 seconds, on its way to a top track speed of 130 mph. When equipped with the optional ultra package, which fits 18” alloy wheels and low rolling resistance tires, the Q6 e-tron is EPA rated to achieve 321 miles on a charge, making it the farthest driving Audi BEV in the brand’s lineup.

    The Q6 e-tron quattro offers 422 hp (456 hp with launch control), delivering an estimated 0-60 mph time of 4.9 seconds with launch control from its two (front and rear) electric motors, before achieving a top track speed of 130 mph. 307 miles of electric range are expected on the EPA test cycle with standard equipment. The Q6 e-tron quattro comes standard with 19” alloys, with optional 20” designs available.

    The SQ6 e-tron makes 483 hp (509 hp with launch control) and delivers an estimated 0-60 mph time of 4.1 seconds with launch control, a top track speed of 143 mph, and is rated to achieve an electric range of 275 miles on the EPA test cycle. Beyond the additional power, the SQ6 comes standard with 20” alloys (with 21” alloys available), red brake calipers, sport adaptive air suspension, sport seats, and carbon fiber inlays.

    New motor designs

    All Q6 e-tron models feature a redesigned, more efficient, smaller, and lighter permanently excited synchronous (PSM) rear motor compared to the Audi BEVs that came before it. Operating at a final drive ratio of 9.242:1, the rear motor weighs only 261 pounds, and losses caused by drag in the drive system were reduced by approximately 50 percent from the first generation of Audi electric drive systems.

    Direct cooling of the rear electric motor via a dry-sump electric oil pump keeps components like the stator winding and permanent magnets in the rotor in the optimal temperature range. As a result, the drive system’s power-to-weight ratio for the PPE electric drive system is about 60 percent higher than that of the first-generation Audi electric drive systems.

    Q6 e-tron quattro and SQ6 e-tron models add a new asynchronous AC induction motor (ASM) on the front axle as well.

    A significant advantage of the redeveloped electric motors is their efficiency. The primary contributors to this are a new hairpin design of the windings in the stator, the addition of silicon carbide semiconductors in the pulse width modulating inverter, and a dry-sump electric oil pump in the transmission. The new hairpin winding maximizes current conduction in the electric motor's stator and allows for higher winding counts. The fill factor has increased to 60 percent, instead of 45 percent when compared to the previously used conventional motor windings. In total, losses caused by drag in the electric drive systems were reduced by approximately 50 percent from the first-generation of Audi electric drive systems.

    When accelerating under full power, the asynchronous motor (ASM) on the front axle of Q6 e-tron quattro models is almost instantly engaged. Due to the nature of its construction, the ASM does not contain any magnets – instead generating its magnetic field through induction – so when unpowered, it can spin freely without significant drag losses.

    Where the 2025 Audi Q6 e-tron gets Real, Charging

    All Q6 e-tron models benefit from a Li-Ion battery pack composed of 12 modules of 15 prismatic cells connected in series for a total of 180 cells, with a total gross capacity of 100 kWh (94.4 kWh net). A maximum DC fast-charging capacity of 270 kW (260kW on RWD models) is std enabled by its 800-volt architecture, new preconditioning features of the battery, and the PPE’s new predictive thermal management.

    DCFCing on a European Ionity 350 KW.​

    Standard Level 2 AC charging at rates up to 9.6kW (240V/40A) is standard. An optional onboard charging setup, anticipated to be available at a later date, will support AC charging rates up to 19.2 kW (240V/80A). If a charging station works with 400V technology, the Q6 e-tron can enable bank charging, automatically dividing the pack into two batteries at equal voltage, which can then be charged in parallel at 135 kW. Depending on the SOC, both halves of the battery are first equalized and then charged simultaneously, shortening overall recharge times.

    All models of the Q6 e-tron come standard with the convenient Plug & Charge function and one year of unlimited DC fast charging included at no additional cost via the Electrify America network. At compatible Electrify America charging stations and when activated in the MyAudi App account, the Plug & Charge feature automatically authorizes and confirms billing via encrypted vehicle to infrastructure (V2i) communication, activating the charger simply by inserting the plug into the vehicle; eliminating the need to produce a credit card or RFID payment at the charger.

    A reduction in the overall number of battery cells, along with intelligent, high-performance and predictive thermal management is a key component of the impressive charging performance of the PPE-based Q6 e-tron. Compared to previous battery systems used, the battery for the Q6 e-tron (12 modules/180 cells) has fewer components.

    The reduction in the number of modules for the PPE batteries offers other advantages. The battery, which can be used modularly for high-floor (SUV) and flat-floor (sedan) models, requires less installation space, is lighter, and can be better integrated into the vehicle’s crash structure and cooling system. It also requires fewer cables and high-voltage connectors, and the number of bolted fastenings has been significantly reduced. Additionally, the electrical connections between the modules are shorter, which substantially reduces losses and weight.

    A cooling plate integrated into the battery housing ensures homogeneous heat transfer and therefore near-optimal battery conditioning. The protective side skirts made of hot-formed steel are not affixed to the battery, but instead attached securely to the vehicle body. The underbody cladding made of fiber composite material is also new. This construction further reduces weight and improves the thermal insulation between the battery and the environment. This allows the PPE’s battery to be heated or cooled more efficiently.

    For the PPE, the ratio of nickel to cobalt and manganese in the battery cells is approximately 8:1:1, with a reduced proportion of cobalt and an increased proportion of nickel.

    Around 95 percent of all braking events can be handled by the regeneration setup at energy up to 220 kW. The regenerative brake system has five different modes, including a true One-Pedal Drive B-mode that can bring the vehicle to a complete stop at braking forces up to 0.25 g with no low-speed creeping. Three manual deceleration modes controlled by the steering-wheel paddles all provide the familiar low-speed creep found in combustion vehicles and can be set for strong deceleration (0.15 g), medium deceleration (0.06 g) or coasting. A fifth deceleration mode, Auto, helps optimize efficiency by utilizing the forward-facing camera to determine if regenerative braking or coasting is more efficient depending on traffic and road gradient, while also providing low-speed creep. The 4th Coasting mode is the only one to use obviously.

    Efficient thermal management of the PPE architecture enables shorter charging times, increased range, and a longer service life compared to prior Audi models. Predictive thermal management uses data from the navigation system, desired route, departure timer, and customer's usage behavior to calculate the need for cooling or heating in advance and provide it efficiently and at the right time. If a customer is using the Audi navigation system to route to a DCFC station, the predictive thermal management prepares the DC charging process and cools or heats the battery so that it can charge faster, thus reducing charging time. The thermal management system also works with the vehicle’s navigation system to determine if there is a steep grade ahead and adjusts the battery’s temperature by appropriately cooling it to prevent a higher thermal stress.

    If the driver has selected efficiency mode, the conditioning of the battery is activated later, which is designed to be able to increase range, depending on driving behavior. In dynamic mode, if the current traffic situation does not allow for dynamic driving, the thermal management will react to this and minimize the energy usage for battery conditioning.

    Post-conditioning and continuous conditioning are also new in the PPE thermal management system and contribute to extended battery service life. These functions monitor the battery temperature for the car’s entire service life to help ensure the battery is kept in the optimal temperature range, such as after a high-speed-charging session, or even when the vehicle is not moving – for example in the case of very hot weather.

    2025 Audi Q6 Exterior Design

    The Audi Q6 e-tron slots perfectly into Audi’s expanding electrified SUV portfolio; offered between the larger Q8 e-tron and smaller Q4 e-tron. With a length of 187.8 in., a width of 76.3 in., a height of 66.6 in., and a wheelbase of 113.7 in., the Q6 e-tron offers a spacious interior and excellent visibility from an elevated seating position. This is combined with the extensive standard comfort features and remarkable everyday practicality expected by owners of a premium luxury SUV.

    A prominent line running from the rear lights to the rear doors and through to the front fender emphasizes the upper section of the Q6 e-tron’s “quattro blisters,” the contours of the body on which the gently sloping A and D pillars are supported. The blisters are a core element of Audi's signature design DNA – a central design principle called "making technology visible" – with visually tightened aft structures creating a mixture of elegance and power. The clean and broad rear architecture with its continuous light strip lends the Q6 e-tron a sense of clarity and confidence typical of Audi.

    The upright front of the car uses the brand’s Singleframe grille. New to the Q6 e-tron are a pair of high-mounted DRLs above the optional LED headlamps plus, marking the first-time a quad headlight design has found its way into an Audi product.

    2025 Audi Q6 Interior Design

    The interior offers plenty of space for both occupants and luggage with 38.5-inches of front headroom, and 30.2 cu. ft. of storage space behind the second row of seating.

Ambient lighting makes the Curved Display appear to float above the dashboard at night.

    For the first time, the Q6 e-tron offers an optional 10.9-inch MMI passenger LCD display to complement the Digital Stage. The front passenger display features Dynamic Privacy Mode, which integrates active shuttering technology to prevent it from distracting the driver while moving images are displayed and the vehicle is in motion. This allows the front passenger to stream films or other video content, assist with navigation, or help find a charging station.

    The Audi Digital Stage can be further extended with an available second-generation Augmented Reality (AR) Head-up Display (HuD).

    The new Audi infotainment system uses the Android Automotive operating system for the first time, and the latest Audi connect services and enhanced e-tron route planner come standard. A wide array of apps such as YouTube, Spotify, and Zoom are available via the Audi App store and can be integrated directly into the MMI without the use of a smartphone.

    The all-new infotainment system is available with two different Bang & Olufsen Premium sound systems, with up to 830-watts of amplified sound.

    Spanning the full width of the lower windshield and extending into the A-pillar areas of the front dashboard is a new dynamic interaction light communicates key vehicles functions to the occupants at a glance. Comprised of 84 LED elements, the light communicates a host of information including directional cues for navigation, hazard warnings and easily discernible charging status cues visible from outside the vehicle.

    2025 Audi Q6 Sportback e-tron

    [​IMG] The All-new Q6 e-tron SUV underpinnings with a sleek hatch design

    Wayne Gerdes – CleanMPG – Oct. 13, 2024

    2025 Audi Q6 Sportback e-tron

    [​IMG]

    Audi is expanding its electric model portfolio yet again with the debut of Q6 Sportback e-tron models. The Q6 Sportback e-tron quattro and SQ6 Sportback e-tron benefit from the strength of the Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture in terms of performance, range, efficiency, and charging, and are yet another example of the scalability of the all-new platform.

    The sleek Sportback silhouette combines the spaciousness of an SUV with the elegance of a coupé and set upon the 114.1” wheelbase. Like the Q6 e-tron SUV, the Sportback is rated with a tow cap of 4,400 lb albeit killing any hope of EPA range when doing so.

    The Q6 Sportback e-tron quattro is expected to achieve an EPA estimated range like that of the Q6 e-tron quattro, at just over 300 miles. Actual EPA-estimates will be released closer to the vehicle’s on-sale date.

    2025 Audi Q6 Sportback Exterior Design

    The Q6 Sportback’s sloping roofline enhances its dynamic design. The design team reimagined the entire roof arch, starting from the A-pillar, resulting in a Sportback roofline 1.4” lower than the SUV variant. As a result, the Q6 Sportback e-tron exudes an unmistakable sportiness not present in the SUV.

    The flat rear window ends in a breakaway edge that incorporates the third brake light. A striking line sweeps from the rear over the taillights to the rear doors, accentuating the top of the quattro blisters and the broad shoulders above the wheel arches. The rear window design has a dynamic upward bend.

    The upright front dominates the fully closed, three-dimensional Singleframe grille. Thanks to their high placement, the DRLs give the Q6 Sportback e-tron quattro its unique appearance.

    [​IMG]

    2025 Audi Q6 Sportback Interior Design

    The Q6 Sportback e-tron quattro interior, like the SUV, includes the Audi MMI panoramic display and the MMI passenger display. The high-contrast interior design intentionally places elements in the foreground or background, resulting in a 3-dimensional spatial architecture.

    2025 Audi Q6 Sportback Drivetrain

    Lifted directly from the Q6 e-tron, the Sportback e-tron quattro has a top fixed speed of 130 mph while the SQ6 Sportback e-tron tops out at 143 mph. Both models come equipped as standard with a 100kWh battery (94.4kWh useable) powering two electric motors positioned on the front and rear axles.

    Sophisticated battery-pack thermal management and the 800-volt electrical system provide the impressive charging performance. With DCFC at a rate of 270 kW, it takes the high-voltage battery only < 21 minutes to charge from 5 to 80 percent under ideal conditions.

    [​IMG]
    Damn, this thing looks good. ;)

    The Q6 Sportback e-tron will arrive in the US market in early 2025 and more information regarding pricing and equipment will be available closer to the on-sale date.
