2025 Audi Q6 e-tron: A Solid, Familiar Electric SUV Option

The luxury electric vehicle (EV) market has been dominated by Tesla, but Audi has been a quick follower, and the 2025 Audi Q6 e-tron is its latest attempt to stake a claim in this competitive space. As an electric SUV aimed at the middle of the luxury market, the Q6 e-tron faces stiff competition from EVs like the Acura ZDX, Cadillac Lyriq, and Mercedes EQE SUV.

Design

The Q6 e-tron shares its Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture with the Audi A6 e-tron sedan, but Audi made sure the platform was reconfigurable to properly accommodate both body styles. A "low-floor" concept for the A6 e-tron gives that sedan a sleek and aerodynamic exterior, while a "high-floor" version provides the Q6 e-tron with proper SUV proportions and an elevated driving position.

The styling of the Q6 e-tron gives the impression of a conventional SUV first and an EV second. The roof and front end are very upright, the latter emphasized by stacked headlights. All models except the base Premium trim level have "digital" daytime running lights with a cool pixelated look and programmable designs. OLED taillights are available as well.

Specifications

The Q6 e-tron is mechanically similar to the A6 e-tron, with a 100-kilowatt-hour battery pack (with 94 kWh of usable capacity) and single-motor rear-wheel drive and dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrains. For this test drive, Audi only had dual-motor models with adaptive air suspension (passive steel-spring suspension is standard) available.

Range and Charging

Audi expects up to 321 miles of range for single-motor models with 18-inch wheels – the smallest available. Most dual-motor models are expected to get 307 miles, but the SQ6 e-tron is estimated to get just 275 miles of range. The range estimates are respectable, although Audi uses a big battery pack to get them.

How DT Would Configure This Car

Between the two versions I drove, the standard Q6 e-tron Quattro seemed like a better choice than the ostensibly sportier SQ6 e-tron. The latter didn’t feel different enough to justify its lower range and higher price. Its base price is $7,100 higher than that of the Q6 e-tron, which starts at $67,095.

Conclusion

The Audi Q6 e-tron didn’t overwhelm me with its brilliance, but it did impress me with how well it understood the assignment. Where rivals like Cadillac and Mercedes-Benz set up to redefine the luxury SUV for the electric era, Audi tries to coax current owners to make the switch through familiarity. As an electric alternative to current gasoline luxury SUVs, it’s hard to fault the Q6 e-tron’s combination of range, charging capability, interior space, and design.

Here are the key specifications for the 2025 Audi Q6 e-tron:

Specification	Value
Length	187.8 in (187.9 in for SQ6 e-tron)
Width	86.3 in
Height	66.6 in (66.8 in for SQ6 e-tron)
Wheelbase	113.7 in (113.8 in for SQ6 e-tron)
Headroom (front/rear)	38.5 in/38.4 in
Legroom (front/rear)	39.8 in/37.4 in
