2027 Audi A6 Sportback e-tron: What's New, What's Changing, and What Stays the Same

It blends the elegant, low-slung Sportback shape with the quiet, instant-torque drive of an EV, a long-range battery, and very fast charging. This guide covers what is new for 2027, how the rear-wheel-drive and quattro versions differ, and how to shop it at Kunes Audi of Springfield.

After sitting out the 2026 model year, the A6 Sportback e-tron returns for 2027 with welcome refinements. Audi added physical steering-wheel controls (a response to driver feedback on touch controls), a redesigned MMI infotainment interface, and true one-pedal driving, which lets you slow and stop using mostly the accelerator pedal. A factory-installed 4K dashcam is also new.

New for 2027, Audi includes three years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, which lowers the cost of the first few years of ownership and adds peace of mind.

The A6 Sportback e-tron is built around a 100-kWh battery and an 800-volt electrical system. EPA-estimated range reaches up to 348 miles in rear-wheel-drive form, or up to 395 miles with the range-maximizing Ultra package, and up to about 360 miles for the quattro. At a capable DC fast charger, it can add charge at up to 270 kW and go from 10% to 80% in about 21 minutes, which turns a road-trip stop into a short break.

The A6 Sportback e-tron comes two ways. The rear-wheel-drive model uses a single motor for about 362 horsepower and a 0 to 60 mph time around 5.2 seconds, and it is the range champion of the lineup. The quattro model adds a second motor for all-wheel drive and about 456 horsepower, dropping 0 to 60 to around 4.3 seconds, with a modest trade in maximum range. For drivers who want all-weather traction and more performance, the quattro is worth the step up; for maximum range and a lower price, the rear-wheel-drive model delivers.

Inside, the A6 Sportback e-tron is classic Audi: a beautifully built, tech-forward cabin with available large curved displays, a crisp digital gauge cluster, and premium materials. The Sportback body adds a practical hatch opening for easier cargo loading than a traditional sedan trunk, and the flat EV floor opens up interior space. Audi's driver-assistance and safety technology is on board as well.

The biggest changes for 2027 are the updated controls, the new MMI interface, one-pedal driving, the dashcam, and the complimentary maintenance. The core hardware (battery, motors, and range) is largely carried over from the car's launch, so this is a refinement of a strong package rather than a redesign.

The 2027 A6 Sportback e-tron starts at $66,700 for the rear-wheel-drive Premium and $68,700 for the Premium quattro, before the $1,395 destination charge. Pricing does not include taxes, title, license, or dealer fees; ask Kunes Audi of Springfield for current numbers on a specific vehicle.

The core of the A6 Sportback e-tron carries over. It remains a five-seat, all-electric luxury Sportback built on Audi's 800-volt EV platform, with the choice of efficient rear-wheel drive or quattro all-wheel drive, a 100-kWh battery, and fast charging. Audi's warranty coverage continues, with longer coverage on the high-voltage battery.

The A6 Sportback e-tron makes the most sense if you can charge at home or at work, since starting most days with a full battery is the biggest convenience of EV ownership. If you are new to EVs, our team is happy to walk through range, charging, incentives, and daily ownership, with no pressure. We make it EASY!
