Audi has unveiled its latest concept car, the Allroad Shooting Brake concept at the Detroit Auto Show. The Allroad Shooting Brake concept is a two door crossover, which is powered by a plug-in hybrid powertrain. Audi says that this is the first time that it has created a concept that combines the allroad and e-tron form languages. Measuring almost 14 feet long, 6 feet wide and almost 5 feet tall, the design of the Allroad Shooting Brake concept is also expected to be a preview of the design of the 2015 Audi TT.
The Allroad Shooting Brake concept is powered by a plug-in hybrid system that generates a total 408 horsepower and 479 lb-ft. of torque. The system mates a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine to two electric motors. At the front, the 2.0L engine and an electric motor power the front wheels via a six-speed e-S tronic dual-clutch transmission. A second electric motor powers the rear wheels independently giving the concept all-wheel-drive capability.
The concept can reach 0-62 mph in 4.6 seconds and has an electronically-limited top speed of 155 mph. It can also travel up to 31 miles in electric mode with a top speed at 80 mph. The compact crossover has a low fuel consumption figure of 1.9 liters of fuel per 100 km (123.80 mpg) on the European cycle.
