Audi e-tron S

The Audi e-tron is an electric crossover that signaled a new era for the German luxury carmaker and although it's as thought-provoking as electric cars get, some wanted a little more fun. Wonder no more, well sort of, because the e-tron crossovers have gained some spice to heat these electric crossovers up.



Welcome to the Audi e-tron S, the more enjoyable version of the e-tron electric crossovers. With prices starting at 93,800 Euros plus on-road costs, which is as expensive as an Audi A8, it is available in both normal and Sportback variants, so whichever style you're going, you will still experience a more beefed-up electric powertrain that is as powerful and as quick as a V8-powered Ford Mustang, whatever it is.

By the looks of it, the e-tron S looks and feels like the normal equivalents in terms of design, interior, spacing, and tech that scares away even the most amped-up speedo boys behind the wheel, but being S, they've got beefed up exterior designs that differentiate it from the normal guys as well as what lies underneath its future-proof skin.

With the S gear set, the e-tron S can unleash the full grit of its beefed-up electric drivetrain with three-electric motors, a first for mass-produced electrics, allowing it to produce up to 503PS of power and 973Nm of torque, going from 0-100kph in four and a half seconds and onwards to over 210kph, quicker than the normal e-tron as expected.

There's even more shockingly cool stuff about the beefed up e-tron crossovers because apart from its sport-tuned suspension that delivers its mild but menacing dynamics on the road and track, the e-tron S comes with the electric torque vectoring system that allows drivers to fully enjoy these crossovers to their fullest extent. They behave like rear-wheel drive vehicles under normal circumstances but when things get serious, the front motor comes alive and it's a side of mild language, hold the fries.

The e-tron S is for those who wanted more fun on the thought-provoking electric crossovers from Audi and looks like these beefed-up electric crossovers are on the roll on the road to a more exciting electric future, even in the wrong barrels.
