Canadian 2019 Audi e-tron Price, Available Trims, and Specs Detailed

New Audi e-tron 55 arrives in dealerships in June with a starting price of $90,000.

The wait for the 2019 Audi e-tron is about to come to an end. With units starting to arrive in Canadian dealerships in June, we thought we’d take a more in-depth look at the new all-electric e-tron’s price, available trims, and specifications.

Audi e-tron versions and price

There will be two versions of the 2019 Audi e-tron 55, the Progressiv and the Technik. The former starts at $90,000 and from what we saw on e-tron spec sheets leaked in November, will include a heated steering wheel, a sunroof, and a power tailgate.

A Convenience package costing $850 adds

• Four-way power lumbar support for passenger seat
• Heated rear seats
• 4-zone climate controls
• Illuminated door sills.

Other packages available on the base Audi e-tron 55 include a Driver Assistance Package ($2,800) that includes.

• Adaptive Cruise control
• Traffic sign recognition
• Emergency assist
• Intersection assistant and pre sense 360˚

Once you have selected that package you can also add Adaptive Cruise Control Assist ($2,800) which includes

• Adaptive Cruise Assist
• Traffic sign recognition
• Emergency assist
• Intersection assistant and pre sense 360˚
• 4-spoke steering wheel with hands-on detection

Adaptive Cruise Assist adds to the Adaptive Cruise Control’s functionality by enabling full-stop braking and vehicle follow. In other words, if the vehicle ahead slows to a complete stop, the e-tron with Adaptive Cruise Control will do the same, and then automatically speed up again in traffic.

Audi e-tron 55 Technik Version

The 2019 Audi e-tron 55 Technik starts at $98,000 and adds ventilated front seats and rear heated seats standard. It is also available with the Driver Assistance Package and the Adaptive Cruise Assist Package.

It’s also available with a Luxury Package for $4,500. The Luxury Package includes:

• Valcona leather seating
• Leather instrument panel with contrast stitching
• Leather door arm rests and knee pads
• Individual contour seats
• Front seat massage function

2019 Audi e-tron Engine Specs

The specs are the same in both versions of the new Audi e-tron. Two electric motors combine to send 355 horsepower and 414 pound-feet of torque to all four wheels. There’s a a Sport mode that will increase the power briefly to 402 horsepower and 490 pound-feet of torque.

A 95-kWh battery powers both electric motors for about 328 kilometers of range. A 150-kW charger can get 80 percent of that range in 30 minutes while a traditional 220-volt outlet will need 8.5 hours to charge up the e-tron.
