Audi Q6 e-tron on sale now with £60k starting price

Arguably Audi's most important electric car yet, the Q6 e-tron, has now gone on sale with prices starting from a shade under £60,000.

Only 382bhp twin-motor, four-wheel drive quattro versions are available at launch – these cars use a 100kWh battery and are claimed to offer up 381 miles on a full charge. Sport kicks off the range at £68,975 and comes with LED headlights, LED rear lights along with dynamic indicators, front and rear heated seats, a 14.5-inch touchscreen and 11.9-inch digital display for the dials, a 360-degree camera, 19-inch alloys and a heat pump. 

S line comes in at £71,975 and adds sportier body styling and 20-inch wheels, while opting for Edition 1 gives you 21-inch wheels, sport suspension, Matrix LED headlights, a black styling package, red brake callipers, front massaging sports seats, and an additional 10.9-inch touchscreen for the front passenger. Audi says customers who order a Q6 before June 30, 2025 also get the Sound and Vision pack thrown in – this includes a Bang & Olufsen sound system, ambient lighting and an augmented reality head-up display. 

Audi has also priced up the sportier SQ6 variant. The £92,950 SQ6 e-tron quattro initially only comes in Edition 1 spec, and gets adaptive air suspension, digital OLED rear lights, a panoramic sunroof, and leather upholstery. Its power is turned up to 483bhp, or 510bhp when the launch control system is deployed.

The range will swell in late 2024 and will bring the starting price down to just under £60,000. These models will be rear-wheel drive and comprise a smaller batteried 83kWh version in Sport, S line and Edition trims, and more powerful 'performance' models also in Sport, S line and Edition trim levels. Prices for the single motor, rear-wheel drive versions will start at £59,975 and rise to £67,975, while the performance versions will start at £63,475 and top out at £71,475.

The Q6 e-tron is an important car for Audi. As the name suggests it sits between the Q4 e-tron and the Q8 e-tron, but it’s the first Audi to use the Volkswagen Group’s new ‘Premium Platform Electric’ (or PPE) platform co-developed with Porsche that uses smaller, more efficient motors, and has ultra-rapid charging thanks to its 800V architecture.
