Overview
- Audi confirmed on Tuesday preliminary WLTP energy consumption of 12.8 kWh per 100 km for the 140 kW A2 fitted with the optional Efficiency Package and called it the most efficient production model in the brand’s history.
- The car’s aerodynamics produce a drag coefficient of 0.24 and use features such as air curtains, gap reducers and an active cool‑air intake to cut WLTP consumption by up to 0.9 kWh/100 km.
- Audi says drivetrain gains come from silicon‑carbide power electronics, a redesigned stator winding and low‑friction transmission oil that together reduce electrical losses by up to about 10 percent.
- Entry‑level A2 specs include a 61 kWh gross (58 kWh usable) LFP cell‑to‑pack battery with roughly 89.6% home charging efficiency plus bidirectional charging for Vehicle‑to‑Load (up to 2.3 kW) and Vehicle‑to‑Home use.
- Prototype testing is under way and Audi plans a production‑ready reveal in the autumn with European sales expected late 2026 to early 2027; reported pricing and extra variants from a now‑deleted German webpage remain unverified and should be treated as speculation.
