Buyers are unlikely to be left wanting any more room inside the Q6; when it comes to legroom, headroom and luggage space, the accommodation on offer is impressive.

Dimensions and size

The Audi Q6 e-tron is a standard five-door SUV, and it has the proportions to match. It slots in the Audi line-up between the Audi Q4 e-tron and Audi Q8 e-tron, and has dimensions to match. It’s also slightly longer than the combustion-engined Audi Q5 and nearly as wide as the larger Audi Q7

When compared with rivals, it’s slightly longer and wider than the BMW iX3, not quite as big as a Mercedes EQE SUV, and takes up a similar amount of space on the road to a Tesla Model Y.

How practical is the Audi Q6 e-tron?

Seats & space in the front

Audi generally manages to get the basics like the driving position just right, and the Q6 e-tron is no exception. Both the driver’s seat and the steering wheel offer a huge range of adjustment, so regardless of your size, there’s a good chance that you’ll be able to set things just right. 

Seats & space in the back

Anyone swapping from either of Audi’s other electric SUVs will find a similar amount of space in the back of the Q6 e-tron; in other words, it’s huge. The seats are comfortable, and the wide bench makes it a pleasant place for three people to sit.

Boot space

At 526 litres, the Q6 e-tron’s boot capacity is generous and, predictably, that figure sits between its smaller range-mate, the Q4 e-tron (520 litres), and the larger Q8 e-tron (569 litres). Unlike the smaller model, however, the Q6 is available with a front boot, which offers another 64 litres of storage that’s ideal for charge cables. It is a £500 extra, though, and you can only open it via a lever in the driver’s footwell, rather than using the key, which is a bit fiddly to release with your hands full.

The main boot offers a large, square area with netted side sections for securing small items. Levers in the boot make it easy to drop the rear seat backs, and with those out of the way, the total volume grows to 1,529 litres. The air suspension can also be lowered from inside the boot area to make it easier to lift large or heavy items inside.

Towing

Those interested in towing with their Q6 e-tron will need to fit the £1,050 folding towbar. Depending on the version you go for, it’ll pull up to 2,400kg, though the obvious caveats regarding limited range apply here.
