.Audi A6 Avant E-Tron concept is already headed to production, wants to make you lust after wagons again:
Audi previewed the electric version of the next-generation A6 by unveiling the sedan as an eye-catching, close-to-production concept in April 2021. It's only half of the family: The second part is the Avant station wagon, which the firm just introduced as a sporty-looking design study.
That's intentional: The station wagon segment is shrinking as SUVs and crossovers find their way into more driveways, even in Europe, so pegging a long-roof model as a master of utility is no longer a selling point. Sporty design is what will help wagons stand out in the 2020s. "I can promise you that a lot of what we're showing here will be available and seen on the road. That's the beauty of my work: we're working on a concept but at the same time we're also working on the production-bound car, so the fascination that the concept is generating is one that we want to bring to the road. The production model will be about 90% or 95% of what you see here," affirmed Audi designer Wolf Seebers.
Like the sedan, the Avant is equipped with a 100-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack and fitted with a pair of electric motors for through-the-road Quattro all-wheel-drive. The system's total output checks in at 469 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque, and Audi quotes a maximum driving range of about 434 miles, according to the testing cycle used in Europe.
