Recently launched in Malaysia, this is the first public appearance for the e-tron models, and EVx visitors are be among the first in the country to get up close and personal withe the Q8 e-tron range and the e-tron GT range. The latter is of course Tony Stark’s ride, as seen in the movie Avengers: Endgame. It’s such a sexy shape, low and wide.
The e-tron GT is some car, sporting emotive design and revolutionary technology, reinterpreting the classic idea of the gran turismo with electric propulsion. The e-tron GT quattro is powered by two electric motors (one on each axle for quattro AWD) producing a combined 530 PS and 640 Nm of torque in boost mode, good for 0-100 km/h acceleration in just 4.1 seconds.
Or you can go full Iron Man with the RS e-tron GT, which raises the performance stakes to 646 PS and 830 Nm (boost mode) to catapult you from rest to 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds. The GT has a 83.7 kWh battery that provides up to 458 km of range in the WLTP cycle. When plugged into a DC fast charger capable of matching the car’s max input of 270 kW, a 5-80% state of charge (SoC) takes just 22.5 minutes. The RS has a range of 447 km.
If you’re more of a family man, try out the Q8 e-tron SUV range for size. Choose from two body styles (regular SUV and Sportback with a sloping roof), each with two variants available, advanced 50 quattro and S line 55 quattro. Despite it being a large family car, the Q8 e-tron packs up to 408 PS and 664 Nm of torque, good for a century sprint time of 5.6 seconds.
Maximum range is 481 km on the 55, which has a 114 kWh battery, rechargeable via 22 kW AC and 170 kW DC – with the latter, 0-80% SoC is reached in 31 minutes.
