In the 2021 Shanghai International Auto Show, we photographed a group of Audi e-Tron GT. the new car is located in the electric four-door GT sports car, and Porsche Taycan is based on the J1 platform, will also be produced with Audi R8 common line, and integrated a series of unprecedented "black technology". In addition, the new car will be officially launched within the year.

The Audi e-Tron GT (ask for the bottom price|check out the details) applies a radical and avant-garde design approach to the entire vehicle, with a strong family-like front face, similar to Audi's latest A5 and A7. The upper part of the grille is closed in the same color as the body and has a honeycomb design, which resembles the scales of a medieval knight's armor, making it novel and visually attractive.

At the same time, the large air inlets on the front face combined with the precisely designed deflector slots allow for more efficient and precise cooling of the assembly, battery and braking system. The aerodynamic shape of the hood surface is designed to reduce unwanted vortex by wrapping the airflow around the body. And the narrow matrix headlights on both sides are equipped with the latest LED and laser technology for animated projection capabilities that can generate dynamic departure and homecoming animations with horizontal extension of light waves.

The side shape of the car has a strong coupe flavor, with the side shoulder lines on the rear wheel arches standing up and extending outward, contrasting with the full cockpit; the concave and convex side shape draws the eye down to the body floor area. The design of the wheels also follows the aerodynamic concept, with each wheel equipped with a double five-spoke design, which allows for optimal ventilation efficiency of the brake discs while reducing air resistance.

In addition, the new car is also equipped with 285/30 R22 size tires, making the side shape of the new Audi e-Tron GT tenser.

At the rear of the car, a "fishbone" style tail lamp runs through the rear of the car, scattering into independent diamond-shaped LED blocks at the edges of the two sides, which is very recognizable; the large diffuser on the rear surround hints at its strong performance.

In terms of body dimensions, the new car is 4990/1960/1410 mm in length, width and height respectively, with a wheelbase of 2900 mm.

Entering the car, the entire interior design is both more everyday practicality and texture, with a smoked black theme color scheme with silver trim throughout, creating a wide sense of interior space. The large touch screen in the center and upper part of the car, as well as the lines running through the doors and the cockpit, form a hugging cockpit with a clear hierarchy and a clear functional layout, creating a more humane space for human-computer interaction.

The steering wheel adopts the iconic Audi three-spoke design, the overall D-shaped layout, and wraps ped in tumbled leather, while the sides are distributed with solid multi-function buttons and s, the bottom is hollow design and equipped with an exclusive logo. In addition, the new car also uses a new electronic gear lever, but the new A3 used a significantly different, more compact,d delicate shape, with a silver base plate, as if the power of the aviation cabin push-pull lever.

The Audi e-tron GT is equipped with dual front and rear axle permanent magnet synchronous motors with a total power of 350kW (476PS) and a peak torque of 630N-m, enabling Quattro four-wheel drive, 0-100km/h acceleration of 4.1s and a top speed of 245 km/h. The Audi RS e-Tron GT has a maximum power of The Audi RS e-Tron GT has a maximum power of 440kW (598PS) and a peak torque of 830N-m, with 0-100km/h acceleration of 3.3s and a top speed of 250 km/h.

The battery is equipped with a 93 kWh lithium-ion battery (33 modules, 12 soft pack cells in each module), which provides a pure electric range (WLTP) of more than 488 km, and is installed under the entire floor and between the front and rear axles, achieving an extremely low center of gravity, which benefits the vehicle in the dynamic handling dimension; together with the new energy recovery system, which combines dual electric motors and electro-hydraulic With the new energy recovery system, which integrates dual motors and electro-hydraulic braking system, the range can be increased by 30%.

The energy recovery system also has different combinations of recovery modes: coasting energy recovery using shift paddles to adjust the recovery effort, automatic coasting recovery through a predictive efficiency assist system based on cameras and millimeter wave radar, and braking recovery through a smooth transition between motor kinetic energy recovery deceleration and hydraulic braking system deceleration, which can recover 0.3g of kinetic energy through the motor alone without conventional hydraulic brakes and is suitable for more than 90 percent of braking scenarios.

For charging, the Audi e-Tron GT comes standard with 11kW AC charging (upgradable to 22kW later), and also supports DC charging with a standard output of up to 270kW. 5 minutes of charging can meet the 100km range; the battery can be charged from 5% to 80% in 23 minutes.

The car sped on, the hum of the engine, sometimes low, sometimes high, like a long, continuous moan.
