Audi has officials has told Autoweek that the e-tron concept will soon become a real production car models.  Audi has a history of putting their concepts into production ever so often and it was not that surprising to find that this good looking car will soon be on the roads around the world.

The e-tron will be powered by four, yes ladies and gentlemen 4 electric motors one on each axle. The car will also be equipped with a 213kg lithium-ion battery pack which is located in the rear, behind the seats. The e-tron will produde 313bhp and a maximum torque of an astonishing 4,500Nm. Audi claims that this car will go from 0 to 60 (100km/h) in 4.8 seconds  and a top speed of 200 km/h. However a fully charged battery will only take you for a distance of 248km.
