With a design inspired by the Audi RS Q e-tron, the updated version brings significant performance improvements thanks to the electronic rear drivetrain SRAM GX Eagle AXS, a 12-speed SRAM XX SL Eagle 10–52D rear cassette, and upgraded EPTA STAGE brake rotors.
The eMTB 2.0 is based on Fantic’s enduro model XEF 1.9 Factory and features a lightweight aluminum frame with full-suspension design, including an Öhlins TTX22m.2 coil-spring rear shock and an Öhlins RXF38 m.2 air-suspension fork — both offering 180 mm of travel.
It comes with a mixed wheel setup, featuring a 29-inch front wheel for better obstacle handling and a 27.5-inch rear wheel for increased agility in corners, combined with Vittoria off-road tires, making it suitable for various terrains. Meanwhile, braking power is handled by F.I.R.S.T. calipers from Sunstar Braking.
The eMTB 2.0 offers riders four levels of electric assistance at speeds up to 32 km/h: Eco, Tour, Sport, and Boost. The estimated battery range varies between 20 and 150 km, depending on terrain, rider weight, and the level of assistance used.
The bike comes equipped with a small digital display mounted on the handlebar that provides an overview of key data, including assistance level, battery status, and speed.
The Audi eMTB 2.0 is available at a suggested price of USD 5,850 before taxes. Customers can register their interest and find more information about the bike on the Audi website.
