Audi announced the prices for the Q6 e-tron battery-electric vehicle (BEV) SUVs. The entry-level Q6 e-tron Premium RWD model, which has an impressive 321-mile EPA-estimated range, starts at $65,095, including destination and delivery fees. Buyers can now order a Q6 e-tron with the Audi USA model configurator for deliveries that will begin before the end of the year.

Why the Audi Q6 e-tron matters

The Audi Q6 e-tron is the sweet spot for Audi’s fast-growing BEV lineup.  Audi has already introduced the Q4 e-tron compact crossover and the larger Q8 e-tron models. The Q6 e-tron is more than just a place-filler in the model lineup, however, because the Q6 will directly compete with popular BEVs from other brands, including the BMW iX, Tesla Model Y, Jaguar I-Pace, and Mustang Mach-E. As Audi continues to build the luxury-performance brand, the Q6 e-tron line is a key segment.

Max Verstappen loathes F1’s LEGO parade ahead of British Grand Prix– and he’s unapologetic about it
Max Verstappen is not a happy camper.

Max Verstappen is one of the most intense Formula 1 drivers. That intensity was on display when he expressed his feelings about the upcoming LEGO parade on Sunday at the British Grand Prix.

The Red Bull driver didn't hold any punches when sharing his disdain for the event, and it makes you wonder if Verstappen will participate in such a thing ever again.

It's been nearly a week since George Russell won the Austrian Grand Prix at the famed Red Bull Ring, but there's still significant fallout following his pole-position win in Q3, courtesy of Spanish driver Carlos Sainz, who is proposing a severe penalty for drivers who trigger yellow and red flags during qualifying sessions.

For the uninitiated, the drama unfolded one day before the main event during Q3, when Red Bull's Max Verstappen crashed at the second-to-last corner on his final lap. The crash prompted a single-waved yellow flag, which Russell, who races for Mercedes-Benz, adhered to by lifting when passing through a single-waved yellow-flag zone, per F1's rulebook. Despite being forced to lift, Russell's final lap was more than good enough to earn him pole position.

Mercedes takes two podium spots in Austria Grand Prix 2026
Russell and Antonelli take two of the top spots while Verstappen spoils a top two finish
Auto Racing, Car, Formula One

700 meters above sea level and tucked back into the Styrian Hills sits the most vista-rich track in all of Formula 1's Grand Prix Circuit. The Austria Grand Prix took place early this morning for the US viewers, and it held a bevy of exciting moments and ended with a great day for Mercedes and the exact opposite for Ferrari, who were unable to repeat their Barcelona excellence to finish in fifth and eighth place. Of course, Cadillac and Aston Martin would have paid good money to have a day like Ferrari, with Cadillac collecting two DNF's and Aston Martin's Stoll couldn't finish the race yet again, leaving another disappointing, pointless weekend for the team. Mercedes was the clear winner as they pulled away from the pack and took the first and third podiums with Max Verstappen sandwiched in between them.

Mercedes wins the day
