Audi\u2019s new Q6 E-Tron Sportback has been spied testing for the first time, revealing new details about the electric model\u2019s sleeker body-shape. Due to be launched in 2024, probably some time after the standard Q6 E-Tron SUV, this coupe-SUV version will be among the first models built from Audi\u2019s bespoke PPE platform that\u2019s been co-developed with Porsche.<\/p>\n
As seen in our images, the Sportback will come with a more streamlined body, mixing the Q6\u2019s flared arches with a falling roofline and lower windscreen. As with many modern coupe SUVs, the glasshouse is slimmer to the one on the SUV, with the rear tailgate featuring a small integrated rear spoiler to help streamline airflow around the rear of the car at speed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This specific car appears to be a lower-specification model, with a basic set of LED headlights and smaller wheel sizes. The sportier S-Line models are expected to make up a majority of sales.<\/p>\n

Mechanically, very little will be changed on the Q6 E-Tron Sportback over the SUV. We already know it will initially be launched in two variants, both with dual-motor powertrains with a 100kWh battery capacity. The base Q6 55 will produce 395bhp, with the sportier SQ6 upping this to 510bhp. Charging speeds of up to 270kW are expected, which will allow for a 10-80 per cent top up in 30 minutes.<\/p>\n
As with the SUV, we expect an RS Q6 Sportback to be available further down the line, with even more aggressive and distinctive bodywork and more punch from its electric powertrain.<\/p>\n
We\u2019ve also already seen the new Q6\u2019s tech-laden interior, debuting a new generation MMI tech that will be accessed via a massive 14.5-inch touchscreen. For the first time in an Audi, there\u2019s also a 10.9-inch passenger display, and there\u2019s a new generation Virtual Cockpit.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The standard Q6 E-Tron will be revealed in the first or second quarter of 2024, with this Sportback likely to be revealed later in the year.\u00a0<\/p>\n
