The 2025 Audi Q6 e-tron and its sportier variant, the SQ6, signal the beginning of a new electric era for the German automaker.

These are the first Audi models to be built on the company’s new Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture, which was developed in collaboration with Porsche.

Audi has now revealed the pricing for the Q6 and SQ6 e-tron, and they’re positioned at a lower price point than Porsche’s new Macan EV.

Pricing for the Audi Q6 and SQ6 e-tron

The Audi Q6 e-tron is available with either a single or dual electric motor setup, offering rear-wheel or all-wheel drive.

The base Premium trim, which comes with a 322-horsepower single motor and rear-wheel drive, starts at $65,095—approximately $12,000 less than the comparable Porsche Macan EV.

Standard features for this trim include 19-inch wheels, adaptive cruise control, LED exterior lighting, and a 14.5-inch touchscreen.

The higher-tier Premium Plus and Prestige trims start at $69,895 and $71,895, respectively.

The Premium Plus trim enhances the vehicle with a head-up display featuring augmented reality, a Bang & Olufsen sound system, a panoramic sunroof, and heated rear seats.

Meanwhile, the Prestige trim includes an adaptive air suspension, a 10.9-inch passenger-side display, improved sound insulation, and customizable daytime running lights.

Range and Powertrain Options

All Q6 and SQ6 e-tron models are equipped with a 94.4-kWh battery, regardless of the powertrain configuration. The rear-wheel-drive Q6 offers the longest estimated range at 321 miles.

However, adding a second electric motor—which boosts the power output to 456 horsepower—reduces the estimated range to 307 miles and adds $2,000 to the starting price of each trim.

The SQ6 e-tron is exclusively available with a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system. Although its estimated range is the shortest at 275 miles, it boasts 509 horsepower, and Audi claims it can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.1 seconds.

The entry-level Premium trim for the SQ6 starts at $74,195. It includes all the standard features of the equivalent Q6 model but adds a sport-tuned air suspension, 20-inch wheels, and massaging front seats.

The Premium Plus trim, priced at $78,595, adds speakers in the front headrests, while the top-tier Prestige trim, starting at $80,595, features OLED taillights.

Audi has announced that the 2025 Q6 and SQ6 e-tron will be available in U.S. dealerships before the end of the year.
