2023 Audi Q8 E-Tron Possibly Teased With Camouflaged Electric SUV

In early March, Audi shared “spy shots” of the facelifted E-Tron in the swoopy Sportback flavor and now we are quite possibly receiving an formal preview of the typical overall body design in current guise. The adjacent gallery was provided with the announcement of getting into an E-Tron in the E-Cannonball in Hamburg, which took put final week. The peeps from Ingolstadt refrain from referring to the electric SUV as the facelifted model, but it may just be.

For starters, the 4 Rings are indicating it can be a prototype, which usually signifies it has new components not at the moment offered on the E-Tron SUV that has been around because 2018. The camouflage – although it is basically a livery – implies the motor vehicle portrays a upcoming model. The pink bits guide us to believe that we’re hunting at the hotter S variant with the tri-motor setup, but absolutely nothing is formal at this place. Resculpted bumpers and a new sample for the Singleframe grille even more show it is really the facelifted model.

Audi has currently introduced the subsequent-technology model will strike the market place in 2026 and go by the “Q8 E-Tron” moniker. Nonetheless, the identify modify is rumored to just take place as early as up coming 12 months with the mid-cycle facelift for the present-gen automobile. Sources from within the German luxurious marque explained to Autocar approximately a calendar year back the E-Tron and E-Tron Sportback will get a big battery upgrade and a lot more successful electric motors to force variety further than 373 miles (600 kilometers), presumably in the WLTP cycle.

The Q8 E-Tron will be positioned above Audi’s forthcoming Q6 E-Tron, which will trip on a devoted electric powered car system. The even larger of the two electrical SUVs sits on an adaptation of the MLB Evo architecture shared with the gasoline-fueled Q8. Lest we cast that aside from a Q4 E-Tron, the corporation is now also selling a Q5 E-Tron in China where it is primarily a luxed-up model of the Volkswagen ID.6 a few-row electric powered SUV.

Audi is just not saying a term about when the E-Tron facelift will be disclosed, but the Paris Motor Demonstrate is getting location up coming thirty day period. If we will not likely see it in the Metropolis of Mild, maybe the electric SUV will break deal with at the Los Angeles Auto Present in the 2nd 50 percent of November.
