"This isn't aesthetic marketing. It represents Audi's commitment to electrified performance across every category they touch, creating visual continuity between four-wheel dominance and two-wheel capability through the kind of details-obsessed approach that separates luxury brands from everyone else. The connection runs deeper than surface graphics. Audi first found off-road success in the World Rally Championship during the 1980s with quattro all-wheel drive technology, shaping the brand's performance DNA for decades."
"Audi upgraded the drivetrain with SRAM's GX Eagle Transmission AXS electronic rear derailleur. Wireless shifting responds instantly to thumb commands across a 12-speed setup working with an SRAM XX SL Eagle cassette featuring 10-52T range - climbing gears for steep technical sections, speed for flowing descents. Stopping power comes from enhanced EPTA STAGE brake rotors measuring 220mm front and 203mm rear, paired with Sunstar Braking's F.I.R.S.T. calipers for consistent performance during long technical descents where heat buildup typically destroys brake feel."
The eMTB 2.0 features a Dakar Rally–inspired RS Q e-tron livery and Audi design DNA applied to an electric mountain bike. The platform is based on Fantic's XEF 1.9 Factory enduro geometry and engineering, providing genuine off-road capability rather than superficial branding. The drivetrain uses SRAM's GX Eagle Transmission AXS electronic rear derailleur with a 12-speed setup and wide-range cassette for steep climbs and fast descents. Braking hardware includes EPTA STAGE rotors (220mm front, 203mm rear) and Sunstar Braking's F.I.R.S.T. calipers for sustained performance. Öhlins suspension components handle both ends for a significant performance upgrade.
