Audi: GT in World Cup outfit

For many years, Audi Switzerland has been helping to ensure that snow sports enthusiasts reach the finish line safely and comfortably. For the 2022/23 Ski World Cup season, the Audi e-tron GT quattro was allowed to dress up especially.

Dressed in the look and feel of the Swiss ski stars' new Levada racing dress design, the electric model is not only an eye-catcher off the slopes, but also provides an extra dose of power on the road together with the Audi ambassadors.

Aerodynamics is crucial

The final touches were put to the new Levada racing suit in the Audi wind tunnel in Ingolstadt. The electrically driven e-tron GT was also tested in the wind tunnel for months and now achieves a drag coefficient cW of 0.24. Thanks to this low cW value and the large 93-kWh battery, the e-Audi has a range of up to 500 kilometers. By comparison, a value of around 0.20 is measured for a streamlined ski racer.

New Swiss Ski squad member

Freshly foiled and ready for a Ski World Cup tour, the Audi e-tron GT quattro in race dress design becomes probably the most eccentric member of the current Swiss Ski squad. The progression from red tones to white flatters the silhouette of the Audi e-tron GT quattro.

Visitors to the Audi FIS Ski World Cup in St. Moritz were also able to see this for themselves. But the sleek Audi e-tron GT will not only cause a stir in the Engadine, but also at the World Cup races in Adelboden and Kitzbühel.

Fast charging at the charging hub

Before each Ski World Cup, the e-tron GT will charge its batteries at the Audi Charging hub in Zurich (gallery left). The charging process there takes just under 30 minutes. Together with Didier Cuche, the electric car will soon be keeping its fingers crossed for the Swiss ski athletes in Kitzbühel, Austria. The Audi will then make its final appearance at the World Cup race in Kitzbühel - again together with Streif specialist Didier Cuche.
