A 480 kg electric city study with tandem seating and outboard wheels.

The Audi urban concept is an ultra-light electric study for city driving, with two seats set slightly offset from each other, a carbon-fibre body and wheels mounted outboard. Two electric motors between the rear wheels give 15 kW and 47 Nm, fed by a 7.1 kWh battery, and the car weighs about 480 kg. At Frankfurt Audi showed it both as a closed coupe and as the open urban concept Spyder.
