Audi e-Tron Concept shown at Frankfurt Motor Show

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

Audi has already shown us their R8 Spyder at this year’s Frankfurt Motor Show and now they have shown as a similar looking vehicle; the e-Tron concept, pictured above.

This vehicle features 4 separate electric motors, one dedicated to each of the e-Tron’s wheels, which make for a cumulative output of 313 horsepower and 3,319 pounds-per-foot of torque. These impressive numbers make for a 0-62mph sprint of 4.8 seconds. Other features of the e-Tron include electrohyrdaulic braking, a range of 154 miles, a body made up of aluminum and composite materials making for a weight of just 3,527 pounds. One particularly interesting feature to note is the wire spoke 19-inch allow wheels.

Any chances of production are slim as at this time it remains nothing more than a concept.
