Audi S6 Sportback e-tron – Fahrwerkstechnologie

Precise driving dynamics, high comfort

The typical Audi DNA is also evident in the suspension. Here, there is a precisely defined set-up philosophy, and the suspension control systems are accurately coordinated with each other. The directly tuned front axle significantly influences the driving dynamics of the A6 e-tron*, making the vehicle feel particularly agile. The optional adaptive air suspension - an air suspension system with controlled damping - lends the vehicle a broad spread between high ride comfort and sporty handling. Depending on the speed and individual preferences, it adapts to specific road conditions and regulates the body's ride height at four different levels. The efficiency mode in Audi drive select is a special feature. In efficiency mode, the suspension lowers the body by up to 20 millimeters depending on the speed, thus improving the vehicle's aerodynamics. This serves to optimize energy consumption and increase range. The rear biased all-wheel drive system in the Audi S6 e-tron* enhances the driving dynamics with a highly variable torque distribution. The different dimensions of the electric motors on the rear and front axles enable rear-biased torque distribution even under full load. The Audi S6 e-tron* and A6 e-tron* are equipped with differently sized tires on the front and rear axles, further improving stability and sportiness.
