Introducing Audi quattro all-wheel drive 

Audi quattro technology delivers power to each wheel with precision, giving you confidence behind the wheel whatever the conditions.

Red Audi e-tron quattro

Electric quattro

The electric quattro system provides all-wheel drive via an electric motor at the front and rear of the car. The torque is continuously fully variable between the front and rear axles and can adjust within a fraction of second to ensure the correct level of traction.

How Audi quattro technology works

quattro with ultra technology

The intelligent quattro all-wheel ultra technology continuously monitors the driving conditions and distributes the power to the front and rear axles as the situation dictates. If the driving situation does not require all-wheel drive, the entire rear axle can be decoupled from the drive train which can significantly improve efficiency.

Hydraulic multi-plate clutch

Designed for models that have the engine mounted across the chassis. This system has a front-wheel bias in normal driving conditions, but constantly analyses traction, sending up to 100% of the power to the rear wheels when needed.

quattro is available on a wide range of models

Whatever Audi suits your lifestyle, quattro technology gives you even more confidence and driving pleasure.

Not for the faint hearted.

The all-new RS 5 arrives soon.

Get ready.
