Audi has added its 'Sportback' coupe bodystyle to its Q6 e-tron and SQ6 e-tron electric SUV line-up, which the brand says offers more than just sleeker looks.
The 2026 Audi Q6 Sportback e-tron and SQ6 Sportback e-tron also gain more electric driving range, with the EVs' improved aerodynamics helping get more out of their batteries.
Starting from $99,900 before on-road costs, the Sportback arrives in a trio of variants to join the more traditional SUV-shaped Q6 e-tron and SQ6 e-tron.
