Audi will launch the e-Tron in India in two body styles - SUV and Sportback

Audi India has already confirmed that it will launch the e-Tron in two body styles - SUV and Sportback. Both the models will share the same underpinnings, but the latter gets the coupe-like sloping roofline and a redesigned rear profile. The automaker had previously showcased the e-Tron in India in 2019 with plans to introduce the electric offering in 2020. However, the pandemic delayed the arrival of the models.

Visually, the Audi e-Tron sports a massive octagonal grille with six vertical slats accentuated by Matrix LED headlights with four horizontal LED DRLs. The overall design is highlighted by a neatly designed front bumper with creases throughout the bonnet, a sloping roofline, roof rails and flared wheel arches and more. The rear profile gets split LED tail lights which are merged by a light bar, and a dual-tone rear bumper with grey inserts. Moreover, the Sportback is very identical to the SUV but gets a coupe-like roofline proffering a sportier look.
