Launching in November, the entry 230i fields a 255-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four and the M240i xDrive, a 382-hp turbo 3.0-liter inline-six. Though longer, lower, and wider than the first gen, the 2 somehow looks frumpier than before. Now in its second generation, the 2-series coupe remains the gateway drug to rear-drive BMW performance, with a modest $37,345 base price. The iX goes upmarket with 516 horsepower, all-wheel drive, and some 300 miles of range. The former debuts with two trims: The 335-hp i4 eDrive40 has rear-wheel drive and an estimated 300-mile range, while the 536-hp M50 has all-wheel drive and should cover about 245 miles on a charge. The electric i3 is dead, replaced by the i4 sedan and iX SUV.
We knew you'd be excited.īMW has an eventful year ahead. On that note, big news: Red brake calipers are now a standalone option on the SQ7 and SQ8. Otherwise, changes involve tinkering with options and standard equipment. The plug-in Q5 55 TFSI e gets an upsized battery with 14.4 kilowatt-hours of usable capacity, and the long-serving R8 gets 30 more horsepower (now 562) for the base coupe and Spyder. In other news, the Black Optic package, which swaps shiny trim for dark, proliferates across multiple model lines. The e-tron GT opens at $100,945 and qualifies for the $7500 federal EV tax credit. Audi predicts EPA range will fall between 230 and 240 miles, and both GTs can charge from 5 to 80 percent in under 23 minutes (if your charging station delivers 270 kilowatts). The base model makes up to 522 horses the RS, 637. And if the e-tron GT and RS e-tron GT sedans look like Audi-fied Porsche Taycans, it's because they are, down to the two-speed gearbox on the rear axle.
On the less-affordable-EV front, the e-tron S-a 496-hp, three-motor version of the electric SUV-arrives this fall, starting at $85,895.
#CRAZY BUMP STEER WITH LOWERED RAM DRIVER#
The ute's optional matrix LED headlamps enable the driver to choose from four daytime-running-light signatures, which Audi claims is a world first.
To make the Q4 50 e-tron Quattro variant, Audi added an induction motor on the front axle, bringing total estimated power to 295 horses. Starting around $45,000, the rear-drive Q4 40 packs an estimated 201 horsepower from a permanent-magnet synchronous AC motor and boasts a targeted range of 250 miles from a 77.0-kWh battery. It comes in a traditional-SUV shape as well as raked-roof Sportback form. The Q4 e-tron crossover, Audi's take on the VW ID.4, is the brand's most affordable EV. Fresh bodywork with bulging fenders gives even the lowliest model some attitude, but Audi reserves the real badassery for the 401-hp RS3. As for the S3, it squeezes 18 more horses from 2.0 liters, for a total of 306, and offers a sport-tuned suspension featuring adaptive dampers. This one pairs with a 48-volt hybrid system and the same seven-speed dual-clutch as before. The former gets a 201-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four that splits the difference between the last A3's 184-hp base model and the 228-hp S Line Quattro. The VW-customer-poaching A3 and S3 enter a new generation.
