2019 Audi e-tron Sportback concept: Electric crossover for 2019
2019 Audi e-tron Sportback concept
We could consider the Audi e-tron Sportback concept as a futuristic car if it were not for its final version will go on sale in two years.
With the 2019 Audi e-tron Sportback concept, there are not one or two, but three electric showcases that the Volkswagen group wanted to take to the 2018 Shanghai Motor Show. There is no doubt that the German conglomerate wants to leave behind its tribulations with the engines thermal and has decided to promote the most "clean" cars. In the case of Audi, this future is as close as it is in 2018, the year in which the Ingolstadt firm intends to launch the SUV e-tron quattro that made its debut as a concept car at the Frankfurt Motor Show. 2017 (and that will become its first electric vehicle series).
For its part, the newly presented e-tron Sportback concept serves as a preview of the crossover that will be produced in series from 2019, and that will share with its electric brother the same propulsion system under a four-door body with coupe line. The marked fall of the roof fulfills its purpose and really deceives the eye, drawing a silhouette that makes the Sportback seem much lower than the e-tron SUV when in reality it is almost not: it measures 1.53 m, just 1 cm less . In fact, its length is also almost identical (4.90 m versus 4.88 m) although it is clearly wider (1.98 m versus 1.93 m) thanks to its muscular wheel arches.

In addition to its sporty and powerful line, it stands out for its lighting technologies: Matrix LED and laser front lights, OLED optics behind.
The front exhibits an improper forcefulness of an electric one, and stands out for the three-dimensional effect brought by its false cooling rack that evokes Audi's characteristic singleframe design. Its sharp front optics incorporate an adaptive Matrix LED lighting system accompanied by Digital Matrix Light laser projectors, while the rear lights are OLED type. And if you look, the traditional rear-view mirrors have been replaced by mini-cameras with wide-angle lenses.
The cabin has much in common with the e-tron quattro, except-probably-the habitability of the rear seats and, with certainty, the capacity of the boot, which is reduced to a still good 550 liters. As new features in the Sportback, the multifunction steering wheel features capacitive touch surfaces to handle its controls; and on the dashboard, in front of the view of our companion, there is a thin screen designed to show interesting information.

The interior of the production model should be a "softened" variant on which this concept car exhibits.
The scheme used in this one and in the future electric Audi all-wheel drive places one engine on the front axle and two others on the rear axle. In the case at hand, the three engines combine to offer a total power of 320 kW (435 hp) that can reach 370 kW (503 hp) if we use the boost mode with which we will enjoy a tremendous 800 Nm of torque. No wonder then, except for those who believe that "electric cars do not run", that the acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h occurs in just 4.5 seconds. The lithium ion battery, located on the floor of the vehicle, offers a capacity of 95 kW / h, enough to achieve up to 500 km of autonomy according to the optimistic cycle approved NEDC.
The decision to present this electric concept in China is due to the fact that the Asian giant has become the main market for this class of vehicles, as evidenced by the existence of some 150,000 cargo points to which another 100,000 will be added in 2019 alone. huge forecast of growth is, therefore, the main factor that has led the Volkswagen group to show the Skoda Vision-E, Volkswagen ID showcases at the Shanghai Show the Audi e-tron Sportback. Precisely Audi will be the brand that will bet more strongly in this area, as demonstrated by its promise to take China up to five new electric cars during the next five years.
