Audi Of America Announces Agreement With Electrify America To Provide Audi E-Tron Owners With A Nationwide Charging Plan

San Francisco, CA (Sept. 17, 2018) – At the global debut of its first fully electric vehicle - the Audi e-tron -- Audi of America announced an agreement with Electrify America to provide e-tron owners with a nationwide charging plan.

'The arrival of the e-tron is timed perfectly with a ten-year, $2 billion investment being made in this country's charging infrastructure by Electrify America,' said Scott Keogh, president of Audi of America.

'For charging on the go, the e-tron will be supported by a nationwide charging network--and owners will receive 1,000 kilowatt-hours of charging at Electrify America sites over 4 years,' continued Keogh.

By July 2019, the Electrify America network will include nearly 500 fast-charging sites complete or under development throughout 40 states and in 17 metropolitan areas. In California, that includes 160 ultra-fast charging sites.

Over 2,000 chargers will be located on average 70 miles apart on highways across the country, providing up to 150 kilowatts to charge the e-tron's 95 kilowatt-hour battery that can reach an approximate 80 percent charge in about 30 minutes.
