Audi will begin series production of the A6 hybrid, its second hybrid model after the Q5 hybrid quattro. The A6 hybrid employs an efficient parallel hybrid concept:
Its combustion engine, a 155 kW (211 hp) 2.0 TFSI, works together with an electric motor that delivers 33 kW (45 hp) and 211 Nm (155.63 lb-ft) of torque.
The electric motor sits directly behind the TFSI, occupying the space of the torque converter upstream of the modified 8-speed tiptronic. The transmission sends torque to the front wheels.
Although a very cautious start, in terms of electric motor and battery, this is a begining. This looks like a small leap of a thoroughbred to becoming hybrid. Who knows if, in a few years, we will don't see an authentic electric thoroughbred ?
