The PPE (Premium Platform Electric) architecture serves as the manufacturing platform for the new A6 e-tron models. This is the second Audi model to take inspiration from the PPE architecture. The platform was developed by both Audi and Porsche and will be utilized to manufacture a range of VW Group cars in the forthcoming years.
