Overview
- Senior company sources report the A2 name will return on an entry-level electric model positioned below the Q4 e-tron.
- The car has shifted from Volkswagen Group’s delayed SSP architecture to the ID.3-related MEB platform using a 400V system and rear-driven layout.
- Prototypes show a one-box silhouette with a short bonnet and split rear glass that nods to the original A2 while adopting a more crossover-like stance.
- Development is said to be in its final phase, with a reveal before the end of the year and sales starting early next year.
- Audi frames the model as filling the void left by BMW’s i3, with A1 and Q2 production due to end in late 2026 as the new A2 e-tron becomes the brand’s most affordable EV.
