Audi launches its most powerful and fastest production car ever - 912 Bhp and 0-100 in 2.5 seconds Audi has updated its all-electric four-door coupe, with three variants – S E-Tron GT, RS E-Tron GT, and RS E-Tron GT performance, with the latter being the most powerful production car Audi has ever built.
On the powertrain front, all variants are powered by twin electric motors, one fitted on the front axle and the other at the rear. Power outputs, however, differ with each variant, with the S E-Tron GT’s setup churning out 670 bhp, the Audi RS E-Tron GT’s 844 bhp, while the top-of-the-range RS E-Tron GT performance makes a whopping 912 bhp. 0 to 100 kmph is achieved in 3.4 seconds by the S E-Tron GT, 2.8 seconds by the RS E-Tron GT and 2.5 seconds by the RS e-tron GT. The S E-Tron GT has a top speed of 245 kmph while the other two variants can reach top speeds of up to 250 kmph. The RS models also get a boost function that can instantly provide the car with an increase of up to 70 kW.
Although the power outputs are very slightly different, these new E-tron GT models largely mirror the Taycan 4S, Turbo and Turbo S, respectively.
The E-Tron also gets a larger 105 kWh battery pack, up from its previous capacity of 93 kWh. It delivers a range of 609 km (WLTP), although Audi hasn’t revealed range figures for all variants. Audi has increased the maximum charging power by 50 kW to 320 kW and claims that the battery can fast-charge from 10 to 80 per cent in only 18 minutes in ideal conditions. Despite the larger capacity, battery weight is down by 9 kg compared to its predecessor, weighing 625 kg.
Many of the changes mirror those on the Porsche, with which the E-tron GT shares its J1 platform, and include significant upgrades to the battery capacity, motor power and DC rapid-charging speed. Source |
