On a motor show in Detroit company Audi has presented the new version of the electric coupe e-tron. And, this time it is a question of "the facilitated" variant of the car. The new car not only is less on dimensions of the big brother (the premiere of the first version e-tron has passed in September of last year on a motor show in Frankfurt), but also has more simple power-plant. If last year's e-tron had at once four engines total capacity of 313 h.p. and a twisting moment already in 4500 Nm, but the new car possesses only two electromotors which work exclusively with a rear axle. Capacity of these cursors makes 201 h.p. that allows to disperse the car of 0-100 km/h for 5,9 sec.
Thanks to the capacious accumulator which 400 kg weigh almost, Audi e-tron it is capable to pass without additional charge of 250 km that for an electromobile quite decent distance. Well and to recharge the car, as always in such cases, it is possible as from the usual socket connection (it will demand several hours), and from special installation. Last will allow to "fill" the car less than in an hour. It is interesting that showing in Detroit new concept Audi solves at once two problems. First, shows to public the potential. And, secondly, checks reaction of potential buyers to appearance of this model. After all there are all bases to assume that the design e-tron will lay down in a basis of serial coupe R4.
