Performance reaches new levels with the e-quattro all-wheel drive system. The instantaneous torque from the two rear-mounted motors is directed straight to the wheels without the need for a mechanical differential, adjusting the torque distribution to optimise traction, in milliseconds.
The e-tron S achieves a drag coefficient of just 0.28, marrying aesthetics with optimised airflow. While the S-specific styling makes a strong visual statement, elements such as the flow-optimised wheel arch extensions also contribute to the aerodynamic shape and maximising range benefits.
