Audi Q6 e-tron Off-Road Concept Gains Portal Axles, Chunky Tires

The Audi Q6 e-tron Off-Road Concept is taking electric vehicles to new heights - literally. This concept car boasts portal axles, which increase ground clearance by a whopping 160 mm compared to the standard Q6 e-tron. The portal axles also allow for a wider stance and lower gearing, making it perfect for off-road adventures. But that's not all - the Q6 e-tron Off-Road Concept also features chunky tires, a redesigned front bumper with auxiliary lights, and a roof rack for added storage

 The electric motors produce a combined 380 kW (510 bhp), and with the portal axles, the peak torque at the wheels is a staggering 13,400 Nm.

Audi claims this concept can tackle 45-degree inclines, making it a force to be reckoned with on the trails. However, the top speed is reduced to 175 km/h. The Q6 e-tron Off-Road Concept will make its public debut on February 1 at the F.A.T. Ice Race in Austria.
