Audi took up tests of the e-Tron sports version on electricity

Audi has launched tests on the Nurburgring track of the "hot" modification of the electric e-Tron SUV.

Motor1's first spy photos shared in Motor1.

If you believe the rumors, the crossover will be given the name e-Tron Quattro S. Standard units will give way to three electric motors, which offer together with a maximum of 650 "horses." It is assumed that the engineers will reduce the total return of the engines to 500-550 "horses" to maintain an acceptable power reserve.

For the Audi e-Tron, the Quattro S will prepare a reconfigured suspension, reduced ground clearance, aerodynamic body kit, more enhanced brakes, and a high-capacity battery.

Recall that the standard Audi e-Tron has two electric engines, 1 for each axle. A total of 408 "horses" are obtained, allowing the car to accelerate to the first 100 km per hour in 5.5 seconds. The 95 kW/h battery pack will enable you to overcome a maximum of 400 km of a track without recharging.
