From 2018 onwards, Audi Brussels will be the exclusive producer of the brand with four rings’ first battery-electric SUV for the global market. The Audi e-tron quattro concept, presented at the 2015 IAA in Frankfurt, provides a detailed glimpse of the future series production vehicle. The sporty SUV is positioned between the Audi Q7 and Audi Q5 in the product portfolio. Equipped with an extremely long range and three electric engines, the Audi e-tron model offers innovation in terms of sportiness, driving dynamics and efficiency. With a range in excess of 500 kilometres and a rapid charging capability, the SUV delivers exceptional performance for everyday driving.
The Brussels plant is receiving its own battery production facility for this purpose. The Belgian site thus represents a shift to electromobility for the Volkswagen Group.
