The model offers either a 2.0L hybrid powertrain delivering 184 PS/335 Nm or a 1.5L VTEC Turbo engine with 193 PS, paired with e-CVT or CVT transmissions respectively.

The fastback roofline appears more aggressive than the standard Avant, while dual exhausts and a diffuser complete the rear styling. FAW Audi has separately confirmed plans to import the standard A6 Avant, creating a dual-channel product strategy for the Chinese market.

This move fulfills Tesla's AP exemption commitment under the BEV Global Leaders program, which mandates installation of at least 50 DC fast chargers exceeding 180 kW, with 30% accessible to the public and multi-brand EV compatibility.
