A New Level of Power with the 2025 Audi E-Tron GT
Audi has taken a bold step forward in the electric vehicle market with its newly updated E-Tron GT, setting new standards for performance and efficiency. Now available for order in the U.S., this sleek sedan comes with a hefty price increase but promises an exciting array of advancements.
Increased Power for Every Model
The 2025 Audi E-Tron GT lineup boasts significant enhancements in power across all models. Even the entry-level S E-Tron GT surpasses the previous RS E-Tron GT in terms of raw strength. The base model ramps up to 637 horsepower—a notable jump from 523 hp—improving its 0 to 60 mph sprint to just 3.3 seconds, priced at $125,500, excluding a $1,295 destination fee.
Record-breaking Speed and Performance
At the top of the range is the RS E-Tron GT Performance model, which dazzles with a staggering 912 horsepower. Capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in a mere 2.4 seconds, it claims the title as the fastest production Audi ever made. With a starting price of $167,000, it’s almost $20,000 more than its predecessor but includes a substantial power increase and numerous upgrades.
Enhanced Range and Faster Charging
The updated E-Tron GT models are equipped with a larger battery capacity, moving from 93.4 kWh to 105 kWh (97 kWh usable). This enhancement boosts the EPA range to an impressive 300 miles when paired with standard 20-inch wheels—an improvement from the previous 249-mile maximum. Quick charging capabilities have also been ramped up, now offering a peak charging power of 320 kW thanks to the 800-volt platform, achieving a 10 to 80% charge in just 18 minutes under optimal conditions.
Technology and Features Mirror Porsche Taycan
The 2025 E-Tron GT inherits several improvements from its cousin, the updated Porsche Taycan, including a lighter rear motor and a newly upgraded front motor that aligns its discharge capacity with the rear. The RS variant introduces a boost button, temporarily increasing horsepower for short bursts of immense speed.
Driving Dynamics and Comfort
Audi has not only focused on performance but also on enhancing the driving experience. The refreshed model incorporates improved steering for a more direct feel and introduces an innovative air suspension system that enhances comfort without compromising sportiness. The installation of this new suspension requires specialized training for the factory workers, underscoring Audi’s commitment to precision engineering.
Conclusion
With these substantial upgrades, the 2025 Audi E-Tron GT represents a remarkable evolution in the realm of electric luxury sports sedans. As Audi ventures deeper into the electric future, the E-Tron GT stands out as a testament to the brand’s dedication to performance, innovation, and sustainability.
