Awhile back, Audi showed off an electric crossover concept that would slot underneath the e-tron SUV<\/a> and act as the brand\u2019s entry-level EV \u2014 the Q4 e-tron. Now, it\u2019s unveiled a new concept electric car, a sportier looking version of the same car, called the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron Concept. I know, it\u2019s a mouthful.<\/p>\n The name but be absurd but its specs aren\u2019t and the Q4 Sportback e-tron is going to be a car that helps launch the Audi brand into the electric mainstream. Essentially, the Q4 Sportback is going to be the \u201cCoupe\u201d version of the standard Q4 e-tron, as it will have a more aggressive roofline and sportier exterior touches. However, the rest of the car will be almost identical to its more traditional looking sibling.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n This new Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron, along with its standard Q4 e-tron sibling, will come with two electric motors; one at each axle, that will combine for 225 kW (301 horsepower) and send power to all four wheels. According to Audi, 0-62 mph will happen in 6.3 seconds, which is enough to be fun in the right circumstances but not exactly impressive.<\/p>\n What is impressive about the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron is its range. Thanks to its 82 kWh battery pack, the Q4 Sportback will be capable of 450 km (279 miles) of range. While that\u2019s not any better than many older Teslas, there will be a rear-wheel drive version of this car that packs a 310 mile range. You heard that right, there will be a rear-wheel drive version. Both range ratings are according to the WLTP, which is a bit more lenient that the US.<\/p>\n Get used to specs like that from Audi. According to the Q4\u2019s press release, it will be an \u201cadvanced look at what will already be the seventh series production electric vehicle that the manufacturer will offer by 2021.\u201d If you\u2019re wondering what the other six e-tron vehicles are, the list is as follows: Audi e-tron, e-tron Sportback, e-tron S, e-tron Sportback S, e-tron GT, Q4 e-tron and Q4 Sportback e-tron.<\/p>\nExterior Design and Dimensions<\/h3>\n
