Audi’s New S6 Sportback e-tron Is a 543-HP Electric Stunner

Audi’s All-New Electric S6 Sportback Hits 60 in 3.7 Seconds

 

The coastal curves and sun-warmed roads surrounding Santa Barbara gave us the perfect setting to meet Audi’s next step in electric performance luxury: the all-new S6 Sportback e-tron. With a design that turns heads and performance numbers that raise eyebrows, this car is more than just an evolution—it’s a revelation.

Let’s get right to it. The dual-motor setup delivers an astounding 543 horsepower, launching the S6 from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.7 seconds. With a top speed of 149 mph (on the track, of course—so we’ve been told), Audi’s legendary quattro all-wheel-drive system ensures this electrified machine holds the road with signature precision.

For North America, the Sportback body style is the exclusive offering, and it’s a beauty. The sweeping silhouette doesn’t just look good—it’s highly functional, with generous cargo space and a rear seat configuration (40:20:40 split) that folds flat to reveal up to 6 feet 2 inches of load space. Built on the new Premium Platform Electric (PPE), the S6 Sportback e-tron offers an EPA-estimated 324 miles of range when fitted with the 20-inch wheels.

 

 

 
 

 
 

 

Power Meets Precision

The Audi S6 Sportback e-tron brings track-inspired acceleration to the EV age

Inside, Audi’s approach to luxury is forward-thinking and deeply digital. The “Digital Stage” integrates a driver-centric 11.9-inch virtual cockpit, a 14.5-inch central MMI touchscreen, and an optional 10.9-inch passenger display, seamlessly tucked into the dashboard. The result? A beautifully immersive, intuitive tech experience. The MMI system itself responds quickly, with crisp graphics and a user interface that balances tactile control with voice-command precision, thanks to Audi’s virtual assistant.

The interior design mirrors the sleek confidence of the exterior, elevated by premium materials and Audi’s attention to detail. A standard panoramic sunroof with switchable transparency adds light and mood, transforming the cabin into a rolling lounge—or a focused cockpit, depending on your drive mode.

Fast-charging capability is another highlight, with a maximum rate of 270 kW, giving the S6 serious recharge power on the go. As always, actual charging times will depend on a host of conditions, but the infrastructure is catching up to match this car’s ambition.

With the 2025 S6 Sportback e-tron, Audi brings us a seamless fusion of design, technology, and electric performance. It’s not just a step toward the future—it’s a full-speed sprint.
