The Aicon is a four-door, 2+2 electric concept. It has a curved, glass roof and angular ridges along the body — a unique design you don't see on present day models.



Audi says the car is designed to achieve a range of 435 miles. It has four electric motors over each wheel that produces 405 lb-ft of torque. Regenerative braking and a lightweight design help extend the car's range, Audi says.



The Aicon also supports wireless charging, allowing for a faster charge time. Audi says the battery can be charged to 80% capacity in just 30 minutes.
