Audi surprised by creating an electric off-road concept based on the Q6 Sportback E-Tron, transforming the SUV into a robust and elevated vehicle with portal axles.
This type of axle, typically used in military vehicles, increases ground clearance by repositioning the differential and wheels, allowing better performance on rough terrain. The brand highlighted that this technology is an innovation in their models.
The SUV was equipped with Venom Power Terra Hunter X/T off-road tires, wider wheel arches, a roof rack with extra lights, and additional LEDs at the front, creating an aggressive and functional look. To improve performance, Audi also modified the front bumper, increasing the vehicle’s approach angle.
However, the company did not specify whether the model is based on the standard Q6 E-Tron or the more powerful SQ6 E-Tron, which offers 483 horsepower and a range of up to 607 km on the WLTP cycle.
Although it is only a concept, the vehicle drew attention for its off-road capabilities and innovative design. A production Audi with portal axles would be rare and highly desired, but, for now, there are no concrete plans for it. More technical details about the model are expected to be revealed soon.
