Volkswagen AG plans to introduce a third model, a compact crossover, in its e-tron electric vehicle lineup in early 2021.
A concept version of the Q4 e-tron will be unveiled next month at the Geneva auto show. Sketches of the vehicle show a sporty design that Audi describes as the “next stage” of its EV ramp up.
The interior is highlighted by a futuristic sweep-around dashboard. A touchscreen infotainment display angles toward the driver.
Audi previously has announced plans for a conventionally powered Q4 compact crossover, which is due late this year. That vehicle will compete against the Range Rover Evoque and other sporty compact crossovers.
Audi is launching a larger electric crossover, known simply as the e-tron, this spring. The e-tron GT sports sedan is due next year.
