    Road Test

    The A6 Sportback E-Tron is based on Audi’s updated Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture, which the automaker shares with fellow Volkswagen Group brand Porsche. The A6 E-Tron has a sleek four-door bodystyle with a sloping tailgate that opens like a hatchback. As with the more SUV-like Q6 E-Tron (which we also tested), the A6 E-Tron offers a longer driving range and faster charging speeds than many competing models, such as the BMW i5 and Mercedes-Benz EQE.
