Audi Q3 03T 2024 Electric Vehicle Test Results

Introduction

The Audi team put the 520km long-range version of the i35+ through rigorous testing in extreme temperatures, evaluating its performance and reliability in a series of challenging tests. The vehicle, equipped with a 69.77kWh lithium-ion battery pack, was subjected to a 3+2 test structure that accurately mirrors real-world driving conditions.

Cold Climate Testing

The cold climate testing route spanned from Inner Mongolia's Chabahur Altai Flag - Genher Challenging Dual City Route, covering approximately 224.6km of the vehicle's range with an endurance rate of 43.2%. The car was tested under extreme temperatures ranging from -25℃ to -20℃ during its journey.

Energy Consumption

Energy consumption tests revealed that the Audi i35+ achieved an average energy usage of 29.11kWh/100km, accounting for a full charging capacity of 65.37kWh. Furthermore, charging times showed the vehicle to require 96 minutes to reach 80% and 34 minutes to reach 70%. The charge curve displays significant power performance improvement until 25%, after which it gradually decreased.

Cooling and Air Conditioning Tests

Additionally, temperature tests confirmed the vehicle's ability to maintain a high ambient temperature of 27.4℃ during static operation for two hours while maintaining maximum wind speed and air conditioning settings. A noteworthy feature of this test was the steady performance, even as the SOC reached 10%, eventually dropping below that point.

Low-Temperature Testing

A low-temperature testing ground was set up in Baoding to provide better results compared to previous tests. Audi i35+ successfully completed approximately 372.5km using the three charging methods for a capacity of 71.6% of its theoretical range, achieving an average energy consumption of 18.78kWh/100km and a full charge at 69.95kWh.

Real-World Performance

Results from the test showed that Audi i3+ has a strong potential in long-range driving capabilities with reliability under extreme conditions as per expectations. Its aeromorphic design seems to provide excellent stability along with impressive appearance.
