According to the Audi technical development boss Oliver Hoffman, the brand\u00a0plans on having a purely electric vehicle in every core automotive segment by 2027. That would mean that, in just five years, there will be an electric alternative to all of Audi\u2019s core models, such as the Audi A4, A6, Q5, and Q7.<\/p>\n<p>But what about the Audi R8 supercar? \u201cThe future will be fully electric,\u201d said Hoffman. \u201cWe intend to come up with some surprises again and we are working on sports car concepts that will probably be fully electric. All I can say is we will surprise and thrill you.\u201d Even though this is hardly a confirmation, there is very little doubt that Audi will not plan a fun and electric supercar. It\u2019s certainly not out of the question, as Audi has the means to do it, thanks to its new PPE architecture, 800-volt platform, and high-performance electric motors.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2022-Audi-E-Tron-GT-regular-version.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-4197\" src=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2022-Audi-E-Tron-GT-regular-version-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"696\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2022-Audi-E-Tron-GT-regular-version-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2022-Audi-E-Tron-GT-regular-version-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2022-Audi-E-Tron-GT-regular-version-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/2022-Audi-E-Tron-GT-regular-version-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Audi\u2019s current electric design language, seen on the <a href=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/2021\/02\/09\/2022-audi-e-tron-gt-reveal\/\">Audi e-tron GT<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/2022\/03\/16\/audi-a6-avant-etron-debut\/\">A6 e-tron Concept<\/a>, would make for an absolutely stunning electric sports car.
