Overview
- Audi on Tuesday confirmed the A2 e-tron is its most efficient production car to date with a preliminary WLTP figure of 12.8 kWh/100 km for the 140 kW version fitted with the optional Efficiency Package.
- The production car pairs a 61 kWh gross (58 kWh usable) lithium‑iron‑phosphate cell‑to‑pack battery with a rear 140 kW motor and a revised thermal strategy that raises home charging efficiency to about 89.6%.
- Aerodynamic work yields a 0.24 drag coefficient and features such as air curtains, gap reducers and an active front intake that Audi says cut WLTP consumption by up to 0.9 kWh/100 km for the Efficiency Package car.
- Drive‑train changes including silicon‑carbide power electronics, thinner motor laminations, redesigned stator windings, low‑friction transmission oil and taller gearing boost motor efficiency by up to about 10 percent.
- Audi plans a global reveal in autumn 2026 with European deliveries targeted late 2026 to early 2027, and media reports cite a German starting price near €38,200 that traces to a now‑deleted brand page and remains unconfirmed.
