The Audi AI:ME concept was not the only all-electric Audi at the 2019 Shanghai Auto Show. The second one was the production Audi Q2 30 L e-tron, announced earlier this month.

This is the all-electric and extended (in length) Audi Q2, which is dedicated for the Chinese market. Production of the electric Q2 will begin this summer in the Foshan plant in partnership with FAW.

The style of the Q2 30 L e-tron without a doubt reminds us of the Audi e-tron, but of course, this one is a smaller crossover/SUV, envisioned for the city. Also, the 38 kWh is significantly smaller than the 95 kWh battery in e-tron. With the electric motor of 100 kW, the specs seem comparable to... Hyundai Kona Electric - Standard (39.2 kWh battery, 100 kW motor).

Audi Q2 30 L e-tron specs:

38 kWh battery
up to 265 km (164.7 mi), “determined according to the local homologation procedure”
front-wheel drive
electric motor output: 100 kW and 290 Nm
33 millimeters (1.3 in) longer than that of the basic model
