Design and interior
The A2 e-tron is a compact electric hatchback / small crossover with a short footprint and a long wheelbase (2,768–2,770 mm) to maximise interior space. Audi emphasises high aerodynamic efficiency (Cd 0.24) and practical packing: luggage volume is 396–1,336 litres with optional frunk on the larger‑battery variants, and a new modular Fidlock fastening system is used for interior storage. The A2 is built with production simplicity in mind to reduce complexity and speed time to market.
Technology and drive
All versions are rear‑wheel drive and use three battery sizes (52 / 61 / 84 kWh gross) with chemistry split (LFP for smaller batteries, NMC for the 84 kWh pack). WLTP consumption figures drop into the low teens (preliminary 12.8 kWh/100 km for the 140 kW spec). High‑power DC charging is available up to 183 kW on the 84 kWh variants, and the A2 e-tron supports bidirectional charging (Vehicle‑to‑Load and Vehicle‑to‑Home), subject to local infrastructure and wallbox compatibility.
