MUNICH, July 31 – Audi seems very enthusiastic about its e-tron electrified vehicle technology at the moment, it's the least that we can say. So, he has already announced another new e-tron model before the last one he came to is fully revealed. The latest vehicle that the German automaker will unveil is the PB 18 E-Tron, which Audi calls an "electric-powered supercar concept."

When we discover that this exciting new model is about to make its world debut appearance at Pebble Beach next month, it's easy to see the place and the year are the inspiration for the name of this last electric concept vehicle.

But the two engines that it will have will be powered by a 95 kWh battery that, even on the new European WTLP test scheme, is good for battery life on a single charge of 249 miles.

On the plus side, this means that E-Tron should be able to enter the market at a competitive price. – AFP-Relaxnews
