Cherish the old. Embrace the new.

The Audi e-tron GT concept¹ traces an arc into the future. As a four-door coupé with a long wheelbase, it features the proportions of a classic gran turismo cast in a progressive Audi design. Ensuring the driving performance of a sports car is the drive of the future: fully electric – including the quintessential Audi quattro all-wheel drive.

Our vision for electric mobility

The e-tron GT concept¹ shows one way in which Audi design language could develop in the future: drawn far back, the coupé-like roof line borrows from the hallmark Sportback design, now combined with the strongly pulled in cabin.

New, yet familiar – the evolutionary design

The front section is adorned by a hallmark Singleframe, this time with a distinctly more horizontal, multipiece architecture and discrete 3D grille design. The striking, illuminated e-tron logo, which can also be found on the rear, immediately makes clear that the concept for this Audi car is all-electric. Not least, the slimline exterior mirrors emphasise the stretched and elegant appearance of this gran turismo concept car.

Laser-sharp view ahead

The new visual signature of the matrix LED headlights with laser main beam and tapered elements reinforces the dynamic presence of the Audi e-tron GT concept¹, even when stationary. In typical Audi fashion, the driver is welcomed by characteristic light sequencing.


Modern radiance – from every angle

Adorning the entire width of the rear is a continuous light strip, featuring tapered elements at both ends that recall the design of the front headlights. The same goes for the illuminated e-tron logo, which on the Audi e-tron GT concept¹ is located below this strip.

Stylish appearance, reduced consumption

Improved aerodynamic resistance reduces consumption and increases range. In this way and fully in the spirit of Vorsprung durch Technik, the wind tunnel had a decisive influence on the design of the Audi e-tron GT concept¹. This can be seen in the design of the bonnet, which reduces unwanted turbulence. Even the design of the 22-inch wheels with five twin spokes allows for optimum ventilation of the brake discs and reduces air resistance. Meanwhile at the rear, a large diffuser minimises bounce. Playing a decisive role in saving weight is the chassis, which follows a multimaterial lightweight design incorporating aluminium and steel as well as a carbon roof.

The drive – quattro of course

The Audi e-tron GT concept¹ is equipped with a powerful electric drive with quattro: two permanently regulated synchronous motors, one on each axle, deliver torque to all four wheels.

The drive forces between the axles and between the left and right wheels are electronically controlled. This allows for optimum traction. The flat design of the battery, which occupies the entire underbody area between the front and rear axles, provides an extremely low centre of gravity. Especially in combination with the all-wheel drive, this means the driver can experience superb dynamics and agile handling coupled with high directional stability.

The specified fuel consumption and emission data have been determined according to the measurement procedures prescribed by law. Since 1st September 2017, certain new vehicles are already being type-approved according to the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), a more realistic test procedure for measuring fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. On September 1st 2018, the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) was replaced by the WLTP in stages. Owing to the more realistic test conditions, the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions measured according to the WLTP will, in many cases, be higher than those measured according to the NEDC. Therefore, the usage of CO2 emission values measured according to WLTP for vehicle taxation from 1st September 2018 on can cause changes in this regard as well. For further information on the differences between the WLTP and NEDC, please visit www.audi.de/wltp or https://www.audi.ie/en/wltp-lp/

We are currently still required by law to state the NEDC figures. In the case of new vehicles which have been type-approved according to the WLTP, the NEDC figures are derived from the WLTP data. It is possible to specify the WLTP figures voluntarily in addition until such times as this is required by law. In cases where the NEDC figures are specified as value ranges, these do not refer to a particular individual vehicle and do not constitute part of the sales offering. They are intended exclusively as a means of comparison between different vehicle types. Additional equipment and accessories (e.g. add-on parts, different tyre formats, etc.) may change the relevant vehicle parameters, such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, and, in conjunction with weather and traffic conditions and individual driving style, may affect fuel consumption, electrical power consumption, CO2 emissions and the performance figures for the vehicle. Further information on official fuel consumption figures and the official specific CO₂ emissions of new passenger cars can be found in the guide “Information on the fuel consumption, CO₂ emissions and electricity consumption of new cars”, which is available free of charge at all sales dealerships and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Strasse 1, 73760 Ostfildern-Scharnhausen, Germany (www.dat.de).
