Audi has continued to show a forward approach on impacting the environment with their new electric vehicles. They’ve also continued to grow and innovate every year, creating a brand that excites as well as impacts its customers. By 2025 globally, Audi aims to have 30 electrified models available to the public, with 20 of those vehicles fully electric. In the U.S., Audi has already introduced five production models—the Audi Q5 TFSI® e, A7 TFSI® e and A8 TFSI® e plug-in electric vehicles (PHEV) as well as the e-tron® all-electric SUV and the e-tron® Sportback.

When you decide to drive around in one of the Audi brand’s exhilarating e-tron® models, you shouldn’t worry about the cost of electrified powertrains versus regular gasoline engines. You’re saving a lot of money by just switching to one of the Audi brand’s e-tron® models. These fully electrified powertrains are going to have lower operating costs, while electric models allow you an alternative power source to gas. This saves you money on gas and on maintenance when the time comes for service.

Regenerative braking is one of the many features that Audi electric model owners have come to love. The energy recuperation system of Audi electric vehicles has the ability to recuperate energy. It does this by recovering energy from the wheel axles and converting it to an electric charge — the additional energy is then stored directly in the high-voltage battery. Audi electric vehicles feature two types of recuperation via coasting or braking which can be activated by deceleration or brake recuperation.

This is a question that we take great pride in answering. Just like charging your phone at night, you’ll do the same charging your Audi electric vehicle. Having a charging wall box in your garage will do the trick and if you’re in need of a charge while on the road, public charging stations will be at your service. And just like it’s described in the regenerative braking section, your Audi electric model will use regenerative braking to charge your vehicle while you're on the go.

Depending on a number of factors relevant to your riding experience, charging times will vary. It is dependent on factors such as outdoor temperature, current battery temperature, charging equipment, battery condition and car condition. You will find specific charging times in the technical specifications for each available electrified model.

If you’re ready to take home your new Audi electric model, you’ll want to hear about its extraordinary warranties. There are varying warranties, but for example, the 2021 Audi e-tron® comes with a standard Audi New Vehicle Limited Warranty (coverage for 4 years or 50,000, whichever comes first) and the Audi Battery Warranty (coverage for 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first). Some warranties can even be transferred from owner to owner.
