The technology platform of the Audi urbansphere - the so-called Premium Platform Electric (PPE) - is designed exclusively for battery-electric drive and thus fully exploits all the advantages of this technology. The central element of the PPE is a battery module between the axles, which – as in the Audi grandsphere – has around 120 kilowatt hours of energy available. Since Audi uses almost the entire vehicle base between the axles, a flat layout is possible for the battery. Together with large wheels in 24-inch format, this results in a basic proportion that is not only perfect for the shape. A high degree of interior length and thus legroom in both rows of seats is one of the key advantages. In addition, the elimination of the gearbox bell and cardan tunnel increases the room comfort in e-cars. The two electric motors of the Audi urbansphere concept mobilize a total output of 295 kilowatts and a system torque of 690 Newton meters. Impressive values that are by no means always called up in urban convoy traffic. Nevertheless, the Audi urbansphere does not do without the quattro permanent all-wheel drive – essential for high-performance representatives of the brand
