Meanwhile, the work on the RS Q e-tron is expected to spill over into Audi’s production development: “As engineers, we basically see development potential in every component. Besides reliability, which is paramount in the Dakar Rally, that’s our biggest challenge in the coming months.” “The electric drivetrain means that a lot of different systems have to communicate with each other. “Audi has always chosen new and bold paths in racing, but I think this is one of the most complex cars that I have ever seen,” says team boss Sven Quandt. The RS Q e-tron will be entered in the Dakar Rally together with Q Motorsport.
The marathon event lasts two weeks, the daily stages are up to 800 kilometres long. The maximum system output of the electric drive is 500 kW, although the manufacturer has not yet finalised how much of this can be used in the Dakar Rally.Įquipped in this way, Audi wants to be “Audi wants to be the first car manufacturer to use an electrified drivetrain in combination with an efficient energy converter to compete for overall victory against conventionally-powered competitors in the world’s toughest rally”. According to the developers, only minor modifications had to be made for use in the Dakar Rally.Īudi Sport also provides initial performance data: the battery weighs about 370 kilograms and has a capacity of around 50 kWh. The actual drivetrain is electric: A motor-generator unit (MGU) from the current Audi e-tron FE07, which was developed by Audi Sport for the 2021 season and whose torque distribution is taken over by a virtual centre differential, is fitted to both the front and rear axles. In addition, energy is recuperated during braking. It is part of an energy converter that charges the high-voltage battery while driving,” Audi wrote. The prototype has been undergoing intensive testing since this month and will continue to do so until the end of the year – including initial test runs at cross-country rallies.Īs far as the charging concept is concerned, Audi says it is taking a hitherto unique approach: “Because there are no charging opportunities in the desert, Audi has chosen an innovative charging concept: On board of the Audi RS Q e-tron, there is the highly efficient TFSI engine from the DTM. ++Īccording to Audi Sport, barely a year has passed between the first concept idea and the start of testing of the Audi RS Q e-tron. ++ This article has been updated please continue reading below.
