, the automotive world was in a different place. Gas prices were down, as was demand for electric cars not named Tesla. Now, the EV race is on in earnest, with seemingly every automaker tripping over themselves to rush new and improved electrified models off their factory floors.
But the 2024 Audi Q8 E-Tron is new where it counts, primarily the battery and its range. Audi officials heard from customers who said they want more range and efficiency, and that's what engineers spent a huge amount of time improving. There will be two battery sizes for global markets, a 91-kWh version and a larger 114-kWh version, the only one we'll get here in America.
As before, the Q8 E-Trons will be Quattro all-wheel drive EVs, with the Q8 55 utilizing a front and rear motor and the SQ8 a single front and two rear motors that each power a rear wheel and can split torque between axles depending on the situation. One change to the new vehicle is an adjustment to the asynchronous rear motor that now utilizes 14 coils instead of the previous 12 to generate its electromagnetic field.
