Fast charging and tariffs over long distances are your weapons for success

The success of the Audi e-tron is mainly due to its versatility for day-to-day use. In addition to its great habitability, its autonomy on long journeys plays a decisive role. Long distances are not a problem for the e-tron Sportback 55, which offers a range of 446 kilometers (WLPT), nor for the e-tron 55, with a range of 436 kilometers (WLTP). In addition, drivers benefit from fast charging speeds. Charging power of up to 150 kW is available in a significant proportion of the recharging process. This makes it possible that, for a range of about 110 kilometers, the customer waits just under 10 minutes at the charging point. The battery of the Audi e-tron 55 reaches 80 percent of its capacity after approximately 30 minutes.

 

The Audi e-tron Charging Service Charging Service provides another great advantage in your everyday use. This premium service allows access to around 155,000 public charging points in 25 countries that use a card. When driving abroad, customers can charge their car according to local purchasing conditions at no additional cost. The myAudi app and the Audi navigation system make operation particularly easy. In addition to planning the route and reporting charging points, the driver can also find out if the charging terminal is available for use at that time.
