Unveiled on March 18, 2024, the Audi Q6 e‑tron launched as the brand’s trailblazing electric midsize SUV, born from the all‑new Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture co‑developed with Porsche, sharing its DNA with the upcoming Macan EV . Audi’s bold stride into electrification begins with this model, ushering in next‑gen hardware and software that will underpin their future lineup. The SUV features a sealed single‑frame grille up front, split‑headlight OLED matrix lighting, and a sleek, aerodynamic silhouette—the Sportback variant optimizes airflow with a drag coefficient of just 0.26.

Its high‑tech cabin is perfectly futuristic: a 14.5″ central touchscreen fused with an 11.9″ digital driver display forms the expansive “Digital Stage” display, complemented by a privacy­‑mode 10.9″ passenger screen . An optional AR head‑up display, AI‑powered “Audi Assistant” with over 800 voice commands, ambient lighting, wireless charging, and an 830‑W Bang & Olufsen 3D sound system with 20–22 speakers elevate the in‑car experience .

With PPE’s 800‑V architecture, the Q6 e‑tron delivers fast ultra‑charging at up to 270 kW—charging from 10 to 80 percent takes just 21 minutes and 10 minutes grants approximately 255 km of range . A large 100‑kWh battery (94.9 kWh usable) powers either a dual‑motor quattro setup or the heart‑racing SQ6 version. The standard Q6 quattro generates ~387–382 PS and 800 Nm, sprinting to 100 km/h in 5.9 s with a 625 km WLTP‑claimed range; the SQ6 packs 510 PS, shaves the sprint to ~4.3–4.2 s, and still achieves ~598 km range .

Practicality is not compromised—526 L of boot space, expandable to 1,529 L with 40:20:40 split seats, plus a 64‑L frunk, ensure daily usability . Safety and convenience shine via Level‑2 ADAS, a 360° camera, heated seats, power tailgate, rear parking assist, and premium build quality with recycled materials .

Set to arrive in India by late 2025 at ~₹1.0–1.1 Cr, the Q6 positions between the Q4 and Q8 e‑tron, rivaling the EQE SUV, BMW iX, and forthcoming EVs like the Kia EV9 . With its blend of elegant design, cutting‑edge tech, scintillating performance, and unmatched charging speed, the Q6 e‑tron heralds a new electric era under Audi’s four rings.

Launched in March 2025, the latest-generation Lexus LX builds on its 2021 debut, marrying off-road toughness with upscale refinement like never before. The militaristic grille and signature check‑mark LED lighting cut a bold silhouette, while the robust 5.1 m-long body rides on a tough TNGA‑F chassis shared with the Land Cruiser, evoking both road authority and rugged adventure . Under the bonnet, buyers may choose between the muscular 3.3 L twin‑turbo V6 diesel in the LX 500d generating 409 hp and a formidable 700 Nm torque, or the gas-electric hybrid LX 700h, packing 457 hp and waterproof credentials including a battery and inverter that can wade through 700 mm of water—ideal for serious terrain‑crossing.

Performance meets capability with full‑time four‑wheel drive paired to a 10‑speed automatic transmission. Select the Overtrail variant and you gain locking differentials, 33” all‑terrain tires on 18″ matte‑grey wheels, underbody protection, and a rugged aesthetic—while gas‑powered trims retain adaptive suspension with crawl‑control and height‑adjustable air rides that lift the body by 3.3″ for obstacles . Impressively, the LX’s diesel variant was unveiled in India on June 6, 2025, with ex-showroom pricing from ₹3.00 crore for the Urban and ₹3.12 crore for the Overtrail edition .

Step inside, and the cavernous interior ready for seven or restricted to five seats shines with luxury: dual 12.3″ and 7″ touchscreens, an 8″ digital gauge cluster, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, a head‑up display, and Mark Levinson’s 25‑speaker premium audio. Rear occupants enjoy ventilated and heated seats, four‑zone climate control, rear‑seat entertainment, ambient lighting, and even a front‑row massaging option in select trims .

Safety is comprehensive too: Lexus Safety System+ 3.0 comes standard, bringing adaptive cruise, automated emergency braking with curve‑speed management, oncoming‑vehicle detection, blind‑spot monitoring, rear‑cross traffic alerts, multi‑terrain view cameras, parking support, and a full complement of airbags .

From its March 2025 unveiling, the Lexus LX asserts itself as the epitome of luxury SUVs reimagined with off‑road grit—whether carved corners in city streets or blasting through wilderness trails, the LX offers unmatched versatility wrapped in Lexus’s unwavering elegance.
