2026 Audi Q6 E-Tron

The midsized Q6 E-Tron SUV’s mild-mannered styling hides the level of acceleration and handling agility that it possesses. While it’s touted as a luxury EV, potential buyers should be aware that the ride is quite firm. Single-motor rear-drive and dual-motor all-wheel-drive versions are offered. The high-performance SQ6, which packs a potent 483 hp, comes only with all-wheel drive. But even the regular dual-motor Q6 we tested is quite quick, sprinting from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.9 seconds. It managed 285 miles during our 70-mph highway-range test--a touch below the EPA estimate of 295 miles. Rapid DC fast charging is possible at public stations due to an impressive 270 kW max acceptance rate. The front seats are firm but comfortable and supportive, while the rear seat is roomy. Unfortunately, many of the interior controls are unintuitive and distracting to use while driving.
