Reborn Audi A2 Driven: Electric Comeback for the Efficiency King
Audi’s new A2 uses Volkswagen Group MEB underpinnings and a more efficient APP350 motor to target lower costs and longer range.
- Audi is reviving its A2 hatchback as an all-electric E-tron, utilizing the Volkswagen Group MEB platform to maximize aerodynamic efficiency and range with a smaller battery.
- Unlike the radically innovative original aluminum model, this version prioritizes affordability to replace recently departed A1 and Q2 vehicles. Audi avoids unprofitable cars to ensure viable business strategy.
- The middle battery option uses LFP chemistry, enabling 100% charging without degradation. The new APP350 electric motor reduces drag through thinner materials and separate oil pan design.
- Inside, knitted-looking fabric resembles recent Minis, while the column stalk array draws inspiration from Citro design. The overall interior remains austere with thick screen bezels.
- Mostly, the functionality feels solid and intuitive, though it lacks the tactile quality of older Audis. The design emphasizes practicality over luxury, resembling a Renault Megane more than premium competitors.
