Grand Touring in an Audi e-tron GT electric car is the best of all worlds: Luxury and Sustainability.
Luxury car lovers know that GT stands for “grand tourer” or “gran tourer,” a type of car that’s designed for both long-distance driving and high speeds, such as the Audi e-tron GT.
The GT vehicles produced by luxury car companies usually combine luxury and performance abilities plus – more often than not – a 2+2 seating configuration. And these days, these once gas-guzzling, often chauffeur-driven grand tourers are becoming more and more sustainable in terms of zero emissions and zero waste.
And, per usual when it comes to all things EV, Audi is leading the charge.
Case in point: the Audi e-tron GT, where progress, craftsmanship, and a passion for high performance come together as fully electric grand touring models.
With a powerful presence, the wide stance, and flowing lines, the e-tron GT stands out in true Audi fashion – starting with the exquisitely crafted exterior.
Among other things, this Audi features a fixed panoramic roof for a spacious and open feel.
The RS model has a carbon fiber roof that’s lightweight, providing a lower center of gravity for enhanced Audi performance.
Starting at $103,895, the Audi e-tron GT also features a luxurious interior, plenty of performance and special features like the Matrix-design LED headlights that cast a distinctive type of illumination that adds to the car’s visual field and visual appeal. Optional Audi laser lights with expressive X-framed trim sharpen that visibility range for greater confidence on the road – morning, noon, and night.
In other words, when you take that grand tour in an electric Audi e-tron GT, you are stepping into the future of luxurious automotive design and performance. All electric, of course.

Each model is in fact crafted with a passion for design and luxury. In fact, the interior features of the e-tron GT and RS model amplify the GT experience.
Not only are these models sporty and confident with looks worthy of a sci-fi movie, but there’s an overflow of power and performance. They also deliver a stylish and exciting driving experience. It’s simply fun to drive.
The media has described it as a calm, spirited drive with powerful acceleration.
“With a motor at each axle, the combined output starts at 522 horsepower and rises to as much as 637 in the most powerful RS e-tron GT model,” gushed Car & Driver. “Audi’s quickest EV is exciting to drive and great to look at.”
The e-tron GT’s revised grille is now painted to match the body color.
Other features we love:
- A second charging port located on the passenger side is standard.
- Every e-tron GT comes with anti-theft wheel bolts.
- The e-tron GT Prestige gets new optional 21-inch 10-spoke wheels.
- The Executive equipment package now combines the LED interior lighting plus package with heated rear seats.
Additionally, the RS e-tron GT has standard carbon matte inlays on the exterior as well as a ceramic brake package with Anthracite brake calipers and 21-inch wheels.
It’s really an electrified version of Audi’s Quattro all-wheel-drive system, and the regular e-tron GT churns out 522 horsepower while the RS version ticks that up to 637 hp.
All this power is further refined thanks to a cutting-edge two-speed transmission. It has a first gear for powerful launches and a second top gear for optimal efficiency once you are moving.
Opt for the Prestige trim and you enjoy heated rear seats, adaptive cruise control, a head-up display, lane keep assist, traffic jam assist, and other driving features – plus a Bang & Olufsen audio system.
