Audi is set to unveil its new entry-level luxury electric vehicle by the end of 2026, with a unique design and more. The new model will likely carry on the A2 name, but the electric version will bring a distinct look.
With luxury rivals Mercedes-Benz and BMW expanding into the entry-level EV market, Audi wants a piece of the growing segment. The company is finalizing development and is expected to reveal more information closer to launch, including battery pack options and prices.
The new A2 E-tron will go on sale next year as Audi's most affordable electric vehicle, starting at around £30,000 ($41,000). With its 400V electrical architecture and rear-wheel-drive powertrain, the new EV is designed to fill the gap left by the i3, which BMW discontinued in 2022.
The company's engineers say the new EV will offer a unique blend of luxury and practicality, making it an attractive option for those looking to switch to electric vehicles. Audi's entry-level EV is expected to be available with 58 kWh or 79 kWh battery packs, which provide a WLTP range of up to 369 miles.
With its sleek design and impressive range, the new A2 E-tron is sure to generate excitement among luxury car enthusiasts.
