A new record: The A6 Sportback e-tron writes Audi history with a Cd value of 0.21 Attention to detail: Aerodynamics expert Matteo Ghelfi: “We look iteratively at each individual millimeter and radius.” Progressive wheel designs: Wheel designer Andreas Valencia Pollex: “The wheel range for the A6 e-tron has been designed for maximum aerodynamics.”
With an exceptionally low Cd value of 0.21, the Audi A6 Sportback e-tron is the most aerodynamic Audi of all time and leads the entire VW Group in its segment in terms of aerodynamics. The A6 Avant e-tron also achieves an excellent Cd value of 0.24, placing it at the top of its body segment. Aerodynamics developers Andreas Lauterbach and Matteo Ghelfi and wheel designer Andreas Valencia Pollex explain how they achieved the record value with meticulous attention to detail.
Aerodynamics has always played a key role in Audi’s long history of success. As far back as 1967, the NSU Ro 80 had an aerodynamic, wedge-shaped body with a Cd value of 0.35 that changed automotive design forever.

Outstanding aerodynamics Aerodynamics is an essential component of Audi’s long success story. The aerodynamic heroes of the past, such as the Audi 100 (C3) and the Audi 80 (B3), were also mid-size vehicles. The Cd value of the third-generation Audi 100 remains legendary. At the time, it was the aerodynamics world champion across all classes. With its Cd value of 0.30, Audi was already far outperforming its competitors as early as 1982 and continued to do so for many years. Now, the Audi A6 e-tron is writing the next chapter in this success story.
