Further, the dedicated Audi e-tron Hub will give customers access to guides on the basics of e-tron such as setting up of charging equipment, setting up recuperation levels and also information on how to maximize the electric vehicle's range. "With solutions like these, we aim to eliminate range anxiety and make this EV journey a memorable one," said Audi India Head, Balbir Dhillon.
The Savings Calculator helps customers keep a track of the running costs of the vehicle and its carbon emissions. The Range and Charging time Calculator takes into account the different driving modes and factors to give an estimate of distance one can cover with the vehicle.

Owners can also get access to 24*7 Road Side Assistance through the ‘myAudi Connect’ app. The digital solutions hub also allows purchase of exclusive Audi e-tron branded accessories and merchandise as well as additional chargers using Audi Shop.
