Official: Audi E-Tron Concept makes its debut in Frankfurt
Tuesday, September 15th, 2009
Audi revealed today at the Frankfurt Motor Show its latest car: the E-Tron Concept, a high-performance sports car with a purely electric drive system. The new concept carries four motors, two each at the front and rear axles, capable to develop 230 kW (313 hp) and a spectacular 4,500 Nm (3,319.03 lb-ft) of torque.
The new car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.8 seconds and from 60 to 120 km/h (37.28 – 74.56 mph) in 4.1 seconds. The E-Tron has a range of 248 kilometers which makes it the perfect sports car. Regarding the design, this is based on the Audi R8 and features a “single-frame grille dominates the front end and is flanked by two large air intakes. The top of the grille merges into the flat strips of the adaptive matrix beam headlamp modules with their clear glass covers. High-efficiency LED technology is used for all lighting units – a matter of honor for Audi as the worldwide pioneer in this field.” Photo gallery and press release after the jump!
