Audi engineering doesn’t stop with the A3 Sportback e-tron®. It continues its innovative ways with the Audi e-tron
charging system, which is included with the vehicle.1 This elegantly designed charging station fully charges your
batter y at home in as little as 2 hours and 15 minutes using a 240-volt source.2 Taking a road trip? Just remove the
mobile portion of the charger and recharge wherever there’s an available outlet. You’ll also have the advantage
of a dedicated smartphone app that can check charging levels, precondition the batter y for optimum performance
based on climate and even start the vehicle remotely, which turns on the climate control to heat or cool the cabin,
for the ultimate in convenience.
The unique Audi charging system, including
removable mobile charger, is housed in an
attractive, lockable wall cabinet. And with the
centered position of the charging port hidden
behind the Audi four rings emblem, charging
the A3 e-tron is easy from almost anywhere
you choose to install your charging system.
If only humans could
recharge as fast.

We found the perfect partner.
A car this revolutionar

y requires a total
rethink of everything around it. In this case,
we partnered with Bosch® (one of the most
innovative automotive suppliers in the world)
to provide a seamless charger installation
experience. The process, which was codevel-
oped by Audi and Bosch®, makes installation
of the Audi charging system as enjoyable as
the driving experience itself.
