Audi also said that a PPE-platform-based A6 is also in the works.
We’re hot off the heels of the international media's first-drive preview of Audi’s tweener midsize EV crossover, the Q6 E-Tron. We aren’t able to share our impressions of that vehicle until July 1st, but Audi’s executives did confirm to us that two expansions of the model lineup are on the way. First will be the Q6 E-Tron Sportback, and later, a hotted-up RS version, likely dubbed the RS Q6 E-Tron. Technically, the first piece of news isn’t all that surprising.
Audi’s representatives also confirmed a future RS Q6 E-Tron in the works — both it and the Sportback will likely be revealed sometime next year. Unfortunately, Audi was fairly doggish when we pressed them on what exactly would set the RS Q6 E-Tron apart from the SQ6 E-Tron. Still, they insisted that it would be a sizable upgrade, going beyond Audi's changes to turn the Q6 E-Tron into the SQ6 E-Tron. Remember, the Q6 E-Tron uses the new PPE as the new Porsche Macan EV.
