THE 2025 AUDI SQ6 E-TRON IS A FASTER & MORE POWERFUL ELECTRIC SQ5 WITH PORSCHE ROOTS

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Audi SQ6 e-tron presents a compelling, albeit expensive, electric successor to the popular SQ5. It boasts impressive performance, achieving 0-60 mph in as little as 3.75 seconds, a significant leap over its gasoline predecessor. The vehicle shares its PPE platform with the Porsche Macan EV, offering a potent dual-motor AWD powertrain with up to 509 horsepower. The interior, while high-tech with its digital stage infotainment and augmented reality HUD, suffers from some perceived cost-cutting in material quality, particularly compared to Audi's luxury standards. The reviewer notes a disappointing lack of ventilated seats as standard or with desirable interior color options. Real-world range falls slightly short of expectations, averaging around 240-250 miles, making the standard Q6 a better choice for maximum range. Despite these drawbacks, the SQ6 offers a refined, sporty driving experience with excellent ride quality and build integrity, though its high price point and competitive set warrant careful consideration.
