Power by engine variant (Norway)

22,375 Audi e-tron cars registered for the first time in Norway in 2019–2023, by drivetrain and type-approved engine power. The EEA data has no trim names, so variants are told apart by power.

Plus 1 variant with fewer than 10 cars (1 cars in total).

Power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the combustion engine, not the system output; for electric cars it can differ from the peak power in the maker’s marketing. Kerb weight is the average for the variant. Source: EEA CO₂ monitoring (CC BY 4.0), one record per car (the years EEA lists twice, 2019 to 2021, are counted once).

New registrations by country (2025)

Number of Audi e-tron cars registered for the first time across 3 European countries in 2025.

WLTP range by version

Type-approved WLTP range of the electric versions of the Audi e-tron, as recorded for each car in the Dutch vehicle register (RDW). The table shows the median; the spread is where 80% of the cars fall.

WLTP is the test cycle of EU type approval, so the same version carries the same figure across the EU/EEA. Power is the net maximum electric power from the same register. Versions with fewer than 20 cars are left out. Source: Open Data RDW (Netherlands, CC0).
