the E-Tron, Audi removed the Matrix LED headlights and the Bang & Olufsen
sound system, among other things. Despite this, it was able to increase the
range of the all-electric SUV by 29 km) To achieve this improvement
in range, Audi increased the useable portion of the 95 kWh battery pack by
almost 3.0 kWh up to 86.5 kWh.
