Audi A6 e-tron spawns a base version

After introducing three trims of the A6 e-tron this summer, Audi has now added an affordable one to the mix.

The biggest difference compared to the trio is a smaller 75.8-kWh battery (down from 94.9 kWh in all other versions). This reduces the effective range to a minimum of 520 km (323 miles). A single motor mounted at the rear axle drives it with 286 PS (282 hp / 210 kW), but can briefly jump to 326 PS (322 hp / 240 kW) in Launch Control mode.

Prices in Germany start from €62,800 for the liftback and €64,450 for the wagon.
