The revamped 2025 Audi E-Tron GT range receives performance improvements, bigger battery packs, and a simplified lineup, along with a $126,795 starting price that makes the entry point for this model $18,800 higher than it was with the outgoing 2024 model.
That higher 2025 price, which includes the mandatory $1,295 destination charge, buys the new S E-Tron GT that becomes the entry-level model. Its standard dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain is rated at 670 hp, compared to 523 hp than the previous base model. That quickens 0-60 mph acceleration by 0.6 second, according to Audi, to 3.3 seconds with launch control.
The S E-Tron GT is available in both Premium Plus and Prestige grades, with the latter costing $137,095 with destination. The high-performance RS E-Tron GT returns as well, but is now available only in a new Performance guise priced at $168,295 once destination is factored in.

2025 Audi RS E-Tron GT
RS E-Tron GT Performance models produce 912 hp, compared to 647 hp for the previous RS E-Tron GT. Audi estimates 0-60 mph in 2.4 seconds when using launch control. A push-to-pass function also adds 94 hp in 10-second bursts at speeds above 19 mph. It’s the most powerful and quickest-accelerating Audi production car to date.
All models use a 105-kwh battery pack shared with the updated 2025 Porsche Taycan, the Audi’s platform-mate. Despite a 12% increase in capacity over the previous 93.4-kwh pack, Audi claims a 25-pound weight reduction. EPA-estimated range for the S E-Tron GT is 300 miles on 20-inch wheels, a substantial improvement over the 249 miles of the 2024 Audi E-Tron GT.
Charging power also increases from 270 kw to 320 kw, reducing the time for a 10%-80% charge from the previous 21.5 minutes to 18 minutes, according to Audi. The maximum energy recoverable under regenerative braking also increases from 290 kw to 400 kw, with up to 0.45g of deceleration possible through regeneration alone, Audi claims.
2025 Audi RS E-Tron GT
Audi’s emphasis on under-the-skin improvements while keeping the basic exterior package the same mirrors the approach taken with the Taycan for 2025. In a first drive, we found the 2025 Taycan makes good on its mission, adding more real-world range and charging usability while maintaining the poise and high-speed stability that were its standout attributes.
So we’re eager to get back behind the wheel of the refreshed E-Tron GT, which in its initial form emphasized touring comfort over the Taycan’s sharpness. It shouldn’t be long, as 2025 E-Tron GT models are now available to order in the U.S., with production staying in Böllinger Höfe, Germany.
