Audi is in the process of making a larger electric SUV for the Chinese market. It will be quite a bit larger than the Audi\u00a0Q4 e-tron<\/a>\u00a0but will still be based on its MEB architecture. It\u2019s going to be called the Audi Q5 e-tron and some leaked photos show off its final design. (We don\u2019t own the photos but they can be seen here<\/a>)<\/p>\n Essentially, this new Audi Q5 e-tron will be a Volkswagen ID.6 in snazzier threads and, honestly, you can tell. Even though it\u2019s based on the smaller of VW Group\u2019s EV architectures, the Q5 e-tron is a chonky boy. However, a bit back seat takes priority over most other things, in China. So it makes a bit of sense that Audi would make such a car for the Chinese market specifically.<\/p>\n We don\u2019t have any official specs on the Audi Q5 e-tron but it should be extremely similar to the Volkswagen ID.6. In China, the ID.6 comes with two battery choices; a 58 kWh battery and a 77 kWh battery. There\u2019s a single-motor version, with 177 horsepower and a dual-motor version with 302 horsepower. The Audi version should have similar specs, though don\u2019t be surprised if Audi throws a few extra ponies in there, just to keep its position in the VW Group hierarchy.<\/p>\n If you want one of these Audi Q5 e-tron models, you\u2019ll have to wait until early next year, most likely. We don\u2019t have any pricing available but expect it to be a bit more than the Volkswagen ID.6. It won\u2019t be available in any market outside China, so if you want something larger than the Q4 e-tron in any other market, you\u2019ll have to wait for the upcoming Audi Q6 e-tron.<\/p>\n
