Audi e-tron S Features

Thrilling Performance

Featuring instantaneous response, remarkable precision, and confident handling -- the Audi e-tron S is a true showcase of the immense performance capabilities of an all-electric vehicle. Featuring two electric motors on the rear axle along with one at the front, you'll have access to a remarkable 469 horsepower and 717 lb-ft of torque with boost mode engaged. With the specialized electric quattro® system, the front motor remains off until needed. When called upon, the front motor adds traction, delivers more power, and helps you accelerate out of corners with torque vectoring technology. As a result, the Audi e-tron S can rocket from 0 to 60 in an astonishing 4.3 seconds.

Other key performance characteristics include its standard adaptive air suspension and massive 15.7-inch front brake calipers painted Dynamic Orange. Almost 2 inches wider than the standard e-tron, e-tron S models feature exclusive wide bodywork including functional air curtains and available 21-inch alloy wheels. Charging is made easy with dual charge ports, 150 kW fast charging capabilities, and a cleverly-positioned 95 kWh lithium-ion battery. In as little as 30 minutes, you can go from a 5% to 80% charge using a Level 3 DC public fast charger.
