Audi has launched the new 2025 RS e-tron GT and S e-tron GT to update its top-performance EV lineup with what is now the most powerful and fastest accelerating production vehicle in the brand’s history.

With almost 1,000 horsepower and a 0-60 mph time of just 2.4 seconds, Audi’s electric flagship joins the electric supercar ranks, where efficiency meets performance.

On today’s slightly confusing episode of Quick Charge, we’ve got a 675 hp AUDI concept that isn’t really an Audi, a self-driving Tesla hitting the roads around Giga Texas while the company pulls all the demand levers in Europe, electric garbage trucks from Mack arriving in Wisconsin, and more!

Audi is embracing its future in China with the launch of a new Chinese market electric sub-brand called AUDI that ditches the iconic “four rings” logo in favor of four capital letters – but one thing it hasn’t ditched is AUDI Audi’s sexy teutonic long-roof design language.

Following the news of sweeping cuts at Volkswagen, Nissan, and Stellantis, now VW-owned Audi announced plans to slash its workforce by 15%, with thousands of jobs on the chopping block.

Audi is expanding the line-up of its upcoming A6 electric sedan by introducing new entry-level versions.

People are angry, cars aren’t selling, and now for the first time ever Volkswagen is likely to close one of its factories in Europe – the state-of-the-art Brussels plant that makes the Audi Q8 E-Tron.

Audi of America has officially announced the pricing and specifications for its all-new 2025 Q6 e-tron model line, and it came with a surprise.

Among the lineup is a new rear-wheel-drive (RWD) entry model, designed to offer the longest range of any Audi battery-electric vehicle (BEV) to date. Starting at $63,800, the RWD Q6 e-tron promises an impressive EPA-estimated range of 321 miles when equipped with the ultra package.

Today, Audi unveiled its new A6 e-tron electric sedan with Sportsback and Avant versions, expanding its already extensive EV lineup.

Volkswagen may close its first plant in Europe ever. As it looks to cut costs amid falling EV sales, Volkswagen warned a possible Audi assembly plant closure in Brussels is an option.

The new Audi e-tron GT is gearing up for its debut as prototypes begin hitting the streets for testing. Audi’s refreshed e-tron GT is expected to pull upgrades from the new Porsche Taycan Turbo. The new electric sports car will likely feature a bigger battery, more range, and performance.

Audi is joining the race as automakers gear up to introduce new, lower-cost EV models. The new entry-level EV will sit below the Q4 e-tron, which starts at just over $50,000.

Today, Audi is unveiling the Q6 e-tron, a next-gen electric vehicle based on the new PPE platform co-developed by Audi and Porsche.

It is going to compete in the highly popular midsize SUV segment, and when it comes to specs and design, I think the German brand has a winner. But pricing is not available yet.

While some automakers are still introducing 2024 EVs, Audi is pushing out a mid-model refresh of the Q4 50 e-tron, called the Q4 55 e-tron. The Audi refresh includes several notable improvements on the performance and handling side, as well as faster charging.

After developing it for what feels like years now, Audi AG is finally set for a world premiere of the Q6 e-tron – its first EV model to debut on the  Premium Platform Electric (PPE) co-developed with Porsche. Here’s what we know so far.

Audi’s sporty design icon is going electric. The electric Audi TT replacement will be completely unique from the current gas-powered model.

Audi took the Q8 e-tron and turned it into an all-electric off-road machine. The Audi Q8 e-tron edition Dakar is optimized for adventurers who “want to drive off the beaten path electrically.”

If you’ve been eyeing an Audi EV, now may be the time to make a move. Audi is offering a free Electrify America home EV charger ($649 value) with the purchase or lease of select e-tron models.

VW, Audi, and Porsche have all committed to using the Tesla-developed NACS connector starting in 2025. It’s one of the last dominos to fall towards universal adoption of the connector.

Audi says it is now pulling back on what was a fairly ambitious rollout of upcoming electric vehicles in response to what its newly appointed CEO says is the EV “slowdown” and to “avoid burdening” factories and dealers.

Huawei, a major smartphone OEM, telecom supplier, and (formerly) silicon designer, is engaging German carmakers Mercedes and Audi over a potential stake in its vehicle software business. Huawei currently supplies vehicle software to several Chinese domestic OEMs, including Seres Group, Changan Automobile, and Arcfox, as well its own joint ventures, Luxeed (co-owned by Chery) and Avatr (co-owned by CATL).

In January 2024, Audi will take on the super tough Dakar desert rally for a third time, bringing with it an upgraded version of its RS Q e-tron prototype. Audi says this year’s fully electric off-road e-tron is safer, more reliable, more comfortable, and even a tad lighter. Can it take the podium in the desert this go around?
