Audi has confirmed its intention to resurrect the spirit \u2013 and silhouette \u2013 of one of its coolest cars. The brilliant little A2<\/a> will return in 2026 as a small, entry-level electric car.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve listened,\u201d said Audi boss Gernot D\u00f6llner. \u201cOur customers want electric mobility that impresses in everyday life. The A2 e-tron is our promise to deliver exactly that \u2013 efficient, compact, and confident. We\u2019re making entry into the electric Audi world easier and more relevant than ever.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The name is apparently \u201ca deliberate nod to the Audi A2, which pioneered efficiency and urban mobility over 25 years ago\u201d. The new A2 e-tron will look to be the same, but electric. And modern.<\/p>\n

It\u2019ll likely sit on the same box of parts that make up the Volkswagen ID.3<\/a> (and all the other EVs that use the shared \u2018MEB\u2019 platform within the VW Group), so it\u2019ll be a known quantity in terms of architecture.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But just how closely it follows the old A2\u2019s shape \u2013 made of lightweight aluminium, don\u2019t forget \u2013 remains to be seen. Because not much can be seen from the sole shady silhouette teaser we’ve been offered so far. Looks promising, though.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll see the finished car later this year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
