Audi PB 18 E-Tron Specification

Ahead of the final unveiling of the E-Tron SUV, the automaker used the car festivities at Laguna Seca raceway to unveil its electric supercar, the PB 18. With over 600 horsepower and a center-positioned driver’s seat, it’s ready for the track. But also, your luggage.

While the car is a giant ball of performance, Audi says the car is at home off the track. It actually has a hatchback so you can put luggage in the trunk for a weekend trip that doesn’t involve track times. That is unless you’re vacationing at the track.
