RS e-tron GT prototype proves its mettle in initial tests

Audi presents the production-based RS e-tron GT as the sporty and technological spearhead of its electric offensive and the first all-electric RS model launched by Audi Sport GmbH. Formula E Champion and Audi driver Lucas di Grassi extensively tested the Gran Turismo sports car and engaged in an exchange with its developers.

The upcoming RS e-tron GT is the next generation of Audi's high performance RS line. It is a showcase of what high performance will be like in the upcoming years as automotive manufacturers start to move away from internal combustion engines and fossils fuels, and start to embrace hybrid and electric technology as a means of advancing the next lineage of high performance automobiles.
