Audi has showcased a prototype of the RS E-Tron GT ahead of its public debut leading the field during the formation lap at the 24 Hours of Spa. The German car manufacturer has teased its upcoming E-Tron GT on a number of occasions in recent months, but this is the first time it has previewed the flagship RS model. There are no apparent visual differences between this RS prototype and lesser E-Tron GTs, but under the skin, there will be changes.
As with lesser E-Tron GT variants, the RS
model will use the same platform as the Porsche Taycan, but whereas the Porsche
only two electric motors, some reports claim the RS E-Tron GT will have three,
two at the rear axle and one at the front. These motors will reportedly combine
to produce approximately 700 hp, allowing the EV to hit 100 km/h)in 3
seconds.
Powering the three electric motors will be
a 95 kWh battery pack that will offer a range of approximately 400
km.
