Audi E-Tron Sportback. A coupe that is coller than a crossover
The car was renamed Audi Q8 Sportback e-tron in connection with the scheduled restyling in 2023.
Audi E-Tron Sportback is an electric car from the German Audi AG, a part of Volkswagen Group. In the today’s Israeli market, Audi E-Tron Sportback 2019/2020 is available in the coupe body with a Quattro all-electric drive. Besides the E-Tron sportback from 2019, Audi E-Tron crossover is available on the Israeli market.
A new Audi E-Tron Sportback is nearly a twin of SUV 5-doors Audi E-Tron - its size is the absolutely the same with pinpoint precision. An octagonal Singleframe grille and a front bumper of the E-Tron Sportback are the same as those of the crossover, the only difference is the design of the backside-aligned roof and the tailgate.The aerodynamic drag factor value of the sportback is lower than that of the crossover: 0.25 vs 0.28. The improved air shape has improved the power reserve as well. Digital matrix headlights with a DMD (digital micromirror device) system is what Audi E-Tron Sportback 2019 has used the first time ever. DMD LED headlights are controlled by a chip with a million of micromirrors, and each one can be tilted 5000 times per second using electric fields. These digital headlights show animation and projection images on a wall or on the asphalt.
