Audi set for new electric era as e tron range is launched in South Africa

Audi South Africa showcased its electric car range for the first time as the brand announced a six-model strong line up that are available from 10 dedicated e-tron dealerships nationwide, Briefly News reports.

The full range of e-tron models consists of three e-tron 55 derivatives, the e-tron 55 Sportback, e-tron S Sportback, and the pinnacle of the line-up, the e-tron GT and RS e-tron GT. The new range is on sale now, Quickpic reports. We had a drive in the e-tron 55 S Line and e-tron GT and can attest to the exhilarating acceleration offered from both vehicles. The 300kW and 561N.m offered from the two electric motors located on either axle makes for spirited performance off the line.
