Audi’s stunning new e-tron GT is now available to lease, offering enhanced styling and an improved driving experience.

Drivers can opt for S, RS or RS Performance variants of the e-tron GT, with power delivery of up to 925PS, the highest ever offered by a series production Audi model, and acceleration from 0-62 in as little as 2.5 seconds.

Each variant has a distinct look based on subtle changes to the overall e-tron GT design.

The S e-tron GT features a new aerodynamic diffuser with vertical fins and 20-inch alloy wheels as standard, while opting for the black styling package gives the new model even more road presence.

Drivers opting for the Vorsprung specification of the S e-tron GT benefit from upgraded 21-inch aero alloy wheels and red brake callipers.

The RS e-tron GT showcases a 3D honeycomb grille, while the rear diffuser includes inset L-shaped aero channels and a centrally mounted vertical red reflector. The RS e-tron GT also comes in RS Carbon Black and RS Carbon Vorsprung variants. All three are fitted with 21-inch wheels, while Carbon models feature gloss carbon styling package, carbon mirrors and a carbon roof.

The RS e-tron GT performance is the first fully electric RS performance model and adds ceramic brakes with callipers finished in anthracite. It is also available in RS Carbon Black and RS Carbon Vorsprung specification.

All e-tron GT models feature adaptive air suspension, with all-wheel steering standard in all but the base model.

Inside all variants, an enhanced version of the Audi virtual cockpit provides the driver with a wealth of information, including battery and charging status, with additional services available through the internet-based Audi Connect service and app store.

Features and equipment include a Bang & Olufsen sound system, head-up display and an innovative smart glass panoramic roof that can turn opaque at the touch of a button.

All derivatives feature two electric motors, one on each axle, bringing new gains in power and performance.

The entry-level model delivers 680PS and a 0-62mph sprint time of 3.4 seconds with launch control, while the RS e-tron GT generates peak power of 856PS and accelerates from 0-62mph in 2.8 seconds.

The GT performance model sets a new precedent with 925PS and 0-62mph capability in 2.5 seconds with launch control. All e-tron GT models can exceed 150mph on unrestricted roads.

Depending on driving style, the official range is up to 374 miles from the 97kWh battery. It can accept super-fast charging of 320kW, which would take the battery from 10-80% in less than 20 minutes.
