Details of the platform were first revealed in 2019, with Audi noting that it would have 60% commonality with the MLB Evo platform. The first car officially announced for PPE was the Audi A6 e-tron.
Details
The car reportedly has a 435 miles (700 km) WLTP range, with an 800V electrical architecture that allows DC fast charging at up to 270kW. In November 2022, it was revealed that the architecture allowed rear or four-wheel drive, with power up to 450kW. The batteries run at 800V, but can split into 2 parallel 400V packs for faster charging.
