Audi presents the highlight of the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show: the e-tron, a high-performance sports car with a purely electric drive system. Four motors two each at the front and rear axles drive the wheels, making the concept car a true quattro. Producing 230 kW (313 hp) and 4500 Nm (3319.03 lb-ft) of torque, the two-seater accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 62.14 mph) in 4.8 seconds, and from 60 to 120 km/h (37.28 74.56 mph) in 4.1 seconds. The lithium-ion battery provides a truly useable energy content of 42.4 kilowatt hours to enable a range of approximately 248 kilometers.
