Audi claims the new A2 e-tron electric hatchback is the most efficient car it has ever made.
The upcoming EV harks back to the revolutionary A2 of the 2000s, which also emphasized efficiency.
The new A2 features an active cool-air intake, air curtains, gap reducers, and gap breathers—all in the name of reducing drag.
As a kid of the 90s, I vividly remember when the original Audi A2 debuted. It was a funky hatchback that had the odd party piece of not being able to open the hood, though people eventually figured out how to do that without going to the dealer.
But weird manufacturer tricks aside, the A2 was built for efficiency, and now there’s a new one that follows the same principle, only this time it’s electric.
