Last month, the A2 e-tron marked its European launch in Germany. There, it was announced that the A2 would be available with a starting price of €38,200, with deliveries beginning in December 2026. Now, the UK will follow: there, customers can now order Audi’s new entry-level electric vehicle in time for delivery early next year.
In the UK, versions fitted with 52kWh and 61kWh batteries (the ‘170hp’ and ‘190hp’ models) are eligible for the UK government’s £1,500 electric vehicle grant. There are also two additional versions with 84 kWh batteries (‘231 HP’ and ‘326 HP’). Each battery variant is available in three finishes: ‘Technik’, ‘Sport’ and ‘S line’ for the low-end models, and ‘Sport’, ‘S line’ and ‘Edition 1’ for the 84 kWh models.
José Miguel Aparicio, director of Audi UK, commented: “The new Audi A2 e-tron is the embodiment of efficiency, not only through its advanced energy management, but in all aspects of its design and development. From its aerodynamic performance and intelligent interior to its optimized production processes and responsible use of raw materials, the A2 e-tron has been designed with purpose. It is ideally placed to meet the needs of a growing number of Audi customers in the UK, while also further strengthens our e-tron portfolio.”
First introduced in September, the A2 e-tron is Audi’s new entry-level electric model, intended to expand the brand’s reach into the compact segment. It is based on the VW Group’s updated MEB platform and is being built at Audi’s plant in Ingolstadt, Germany. Last month, electrive explored how Audi shortened development timelines for the A2 e-tron at the Ingolstadt facility, which you can read about here.
