What sets the Audi RS Q e-tron apart is its EREV powertrain.
It combines a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, borrowed from an Audi DTM racecar, to act as a generator for the battery pack that supplies power to electric motors driving each wheel. This setup results in a total system output of up to 670 horsepower. Similar powertrains are very popular among Chinese automakers - Yangwang U8 for example.
So primary source of power was from Fossil fuels.
Q. WHy don't they just use a full ev...There is plenty of sunlight to recharge during the day?
