Audi has launched its first electric SUVs, the e-tron and e-tron Sportback in India. Prices start at ₹ 99.99 lakh for the e-tron 50 Quattro and go up to ₹ 1.16 crore for the e-tron 55 Quattro. The e-tron Sportback meanwhile is priced at ₹ 1.18 crore and only available in the 55 Quattro spec. On the styling front, Audi has given the e-tron a more traditional SUV design. The e-tron is also well proportioned and does not deviate too far from the traditional Audi SUV profile, like that of a Q5 or Q7. The e-tron Sportback shares much of its styling with the regular model up front, but when viewed from the side, its unique SUV-coupe aesthetic becomes more apparent, with its tapering roofline that ends in a notchback design. At the rear, both the models get a full-width light bar connecting the LED tail-lamps. The 20-inch, 5-spoke alloy wheels are also standard for both models, and they come wrapped in high-profile tyres to aid the overall ride.
