New Audi models: This is what the Ingolstadt-based company is planning by 2026

Audi is getting serious about electric: From 2026, no more models with combustion engines are to be launched on the market. Until 2025, popular combustion models will have to be updated again. We'll tell you what you can expect in the next few years.

Time is running out for combustion engines. Audi no longer wants to launch combustion engine models on the market earlier than other manufacturers. Until 2025, however, Audi fans can still breathe a sigh of relief, until then there will still be facelifts and new model generations of popular Audi models. We'll tell you what you can look forward to.

The next few years will bring some more models. If you want to buy a new Audi now, we have the current top models for you.

New Audi models 2025

A6 e-tron

Audi A6 e-tron family

The A6 e-tron electric sedan was officially unveiled on July 31 and has been available to order since September 2024. A 100 kWh battery enables ranges beyond 700 km. The A6 e-tron is also available as an Avant and thus has a model range of four variants at the market launch.

Audi Q6 Sportback

At the 2024 Paris Motor Show, the Sportback variant of the Q6 was unveiled, after the "normal" Q6 had already made its debut. With four different variants with a larger battery or all-wheel drive as well as a more powerful engine, there is a lot to choose from in the SUV coupé. Orders will start here at the end of 2024/beginning of 2025 around the turn of the year.

Audi A5 (formerly A4) Plug-in Hybrid & Audi RS5

With the new generation of the Audi A4, the name is also changing – because from now on, even numbers are to be reserved for electric models. That's why the A4 is now becoming the A5 and the A5 Avant. With a mild hybrid drive, the new A5 was officially presented on 16 July. The A5 will be launched in November 2024, but the plug-in hybrid variant will not be available until 2025. An RS5 in the works will also not complete the new A5 series until 2025.

Audi Q5 & Q5 Sportback

New Audi Q5 and SQ5

On September 2, the brand new Audi Q5 was presented. The new generation of the SUV continues Audi's electrification and initially only offers mild hybrid engines for gasoline and diesel at launch. A plug-in hybrid is to follow at a later date and should then come in 2025. The coupe version has now also been officially unveiled on November 26, 2024. You can find all information about the Audi Q5 Sportback in our news.

Audi R8 Successor

The successor to the Audi R8 will very certainly be an all-electric model. In 2024 at the earliest, rather later, the sports car is expected to climb to the top of the e-tron models. We still have to wait and see which platform it will be based on, and how many horsepower you can expect.

Audi A6 e-tron Avant and Sportback

Presentation of the new Audi A6 e-tron Sportback

The new Audi A6 e-tron was officially presented at the end of July. It will be available as both a station wagon and a sedan, thus also filling the gap left by station wagons in the electric luxury class. With a range of up to more than 750 km, the new A6 is more than just suitable for long distances. With a system output of over 400 kW and a charging capacity of up to 270 kW, there is hardly anything left to be desired. The new A6 e-tron will be available to order as an Avant and Sportback from September 2024 and should then be at dealerships in 2025.

Audi e-tron GT Facelift

Audi e-tron GT

Audi's electric super sports car is getting a facelift. Also on the grid for the revision of the Audi e-tron GT are up to 925 hp and a grown model family. Up to three variants of the electric runabout are now available for purchase.

A4 e-tron

The mid-size sedan will also soon only be available electrically. In 2024, the next A4 generation will be available for the first time as the A5, so the electric variant is not expected before the end of 2025. So far, the A4 e-tron has not yet been officially confirmed, but there is already initial information as a prototype.

Audi Q3

New Audi Q3 almost uncamouflaged

The new generation Audi Q3 was spotted during test drives and offers a brand new exterior. Almost uncamouflaged prototypes have already been sighted. The SUV is expected to be unveiled at the beginning of 2025, so that it will still be with dealers and customers in 2025. A new Q3 has now been officially confirmed by Audi. As soon as more information is available, we will keep you posted!

Audi RS6 Avant e-tron

Audi-RS6-E-Tron-Front-Lead-1

We think the idea of a performance electric station wagon is so good that we have created a render of a possibly planned RS6 Avant e-tron. After the A6 Avant e-tron will be given, the idea of an electric RS model is not far-fetched. Unfortunately, it is not clear whether our wish will be heard by Audi. Perhaps the electric RS6 will simply remain a dream.

A market launch in 2025 still seems unrealistic at the moment, but who knows ...

Audi Grand Sphere – A8 successor

GrandSphere

The Audi Grand Sphere, which has already been presented as a concept vehicle, is planned as an electric replacement for the Audi A8. The luxury sedan could deliver up to 1,150 hp, and a lot of advanced technology is also expected. The market launch will be 2025 at the earliest, perhaps even later.

Audi Sky Sphere

Audi_Sky Sphere_vorne

The futuristic electric roadster called Sky Sphere was presented just over a year ago and, like the Grand Sphere, is also in the upcoming Audi luxury segment. It is questionable whether the production model will adopt all the details from the concept. But the convertible will certainly be futuristic and very sporty.

Audi Activesphere

Audi Activesphere

The Activesphere concept is the latest and last concept in the Sphere series, and was officially unveiled on January 26, 2023. It is an off-road coupé that can be converted into a pick-up at the touch of a button. But it is only a concept for the time being – if at all, we can expect a production vehicle around 2025 at the earliest.

Audi Q7

Shortly before the combustion engine stop, Audi is launching a new generation of the large SUV Q7 in 2025. We can imagine that the last combustion Q7 will be much more massive, more present and more powerful than the current version. The first pictures of the prototypes can already be found in our news about the Audi Q7.

Audi RS5

Audi RS5 spotted on test drive

With the announcement of the new A5, the RS5 sports sedan is of course not far away. As the successor to the RS4, the premium variant is already making its rounds as a camouflaged prototype. The vehicle is expected to be launched as a plug-in hybrid in 2025.

Audi RS5 Avant

Audi RS5 Avant render image

As a premium variant of the A5, the RS5 Avant will probably come in 2025. So far, only heavily camouflaged versions have been sighted. Nevertheless, we already have exclusive render images of the sports station wagon with plug-in hybrid.

New combustion engine Audi A6 series

Audi A7 Avant Erlkönig

Although the electric A6 is already here, the successor to the combustion engine in the A6 is still on the way. The presentation of the new A6 will probably take place at the beginning of 2025. An Avant version has also been spotted and it is to be presented to the world as early as March 4. The market launch will probably follow in 2025, and the new combustion engine A6 will definitely come in 2025, as was recently confirmed personally by the Audi boss.Audi A7 Limousine Erlkönig

We expect further hybridization of engines with mild hybrids and plug-in hybrids. A reduction in the number of cylinders is also possible.

New Audi models 2026

Q9

Audi Q9 prototype on test drive

Audi is getting a new flagship – the Audi Q9.The huge SUV is to come both as a classic combustion engine and with plug-in hybrid technology. In addition, a lot of space is expected. Although there have been rumors and sightings of the new SUV since 2022, it is likely to take until 2026 before the Q9 is available. It is unclear whether the colossus, which is likely to be more than five meters long, will also be launched in Germany. Perhaps the new flagship will be limited to the American or Chinese market.

Audi RS7 Avant

With the revision of the "normal" A6, which is due in 2025, a successor is also on the horizon for the performance model. The first pictures of the test cars on test drive are already available and the new RS7 as the successor to the RS6 could come this time not only as an Avant, but also as a sedan. We expect official news about the RS7 towards the end of 2025 or the beginning of 2026.
