Audi E-Tron GT electric car caught on camera winter testing
The
Audi E-Tron GT electric car – the twin under the skin to the
Porsche Taycan – is a step closer to becoming a showroom reality.
Spy photos (and video, near the bottom of this story) taken during winter testing in Europe show
Audi has progressed to prototype vehicles with production-ready bodywork.
Although the swirly camouflage does a pretty good job of disguising the Audi E-Tron GT’s proportions, fortunately the concept car unveiled at the 2018 Los Angeles Auto Show provides a rather large clue as to what the final showroom version will look like (pictured below).
Audi is yet to release final technical details about the production version of the Audi E-Tron GT.
However, when it was unveiled, Audi said its sleek four-door coupe had a combined output of 434kW from its electric motors and a claimed 0 to 100kmh time in a supercar-quick 3.5 seconds.
Production is due to commence in late 2020, although that forecast was made before the coronavirus crisis slowed vehicle development and closed car factories.
Audi Australia is yet to formally confirm whether the E-Tron GT will be sold locally, however
CarAdvice understands it is a likely starter given our appetite for high performance cars.
Australia is one of the top markets in the world for Audi performance cars, with a high uptake of S and RS models.
