PHS Automotive Malaysia (PHSAM) marked a major milestone at the Malaysia AutoShow 2025 with the unveiling of the Audi Q7 S line, the brand’s first locally assembled SUV. Assembled at the Pekan plant under a Completely Knocked Down (CKD) initiative, the new Q7 enters the Malaysian market with a starting price of RM459,990, reinforcing Audi’s commitment to the premium SUV segment in Southeast Asia.

The introduction of the Q7 S line represents a strategic step forward for the German marque’s regional ambitions. According to PHSAM, the collaboration between its local operations, Volkswagen Group Malaysia, and Audi headquarters in Germany was pivotal in bringing the CKD project to life. The company emphasised that the locally built Q7 preserves the engineering precision Audi is renowned for, while delivering greater value to Malaysian customers.

Positioned as a flagship SUV, the new Audi Q7 S line features an aggressive yet elegant exterior design enhanced by the S line styling package. Distinctive elements such as redesigned front and rear bumpers, side skirting, and a blacked-out Audi Singleframe grille contribute to its commanding road presence.

Audi has unveiled its latest plug-in hybrid variants of the A6 Sedan and Avant, boasting significant improvements in battery capacity, electric driving range, and overall refinement. Both body styles now integrate a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbocharged engine paired with an electric motor, with total system outputs offered in two variants—295hp and 362hp. These upgrades position the A6 e-hybrid models as more efficient alternatives to diesel-powered counterparts, while still delivering strong performance.

A key highlight of the revamped plug-in hybrids is the newly upgraded battery. With a net capacity of 20.7 kWh—around 45 percent more than its predecessor—the battery enables the vehicles to travel over 100km purely on electric power under the WLTP combined cycle. Specifically, the A6 Sedan is capable of reaching up to 111km of electric range in urban conditions, while the Avant achieves up to 106km. Even at higher speeds, the A6 can maintain fully electric propulsion up to an electronically limited 140km/h.

The two powertrain options deliver impressive torque and acceleration. The base version generates 450Nm and accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in six seconds, while the higher-powered model outputs 500Nm and completes the sprint in just 5.3 seconds. For those seeking greater performance, Audi still offers more powerful V6 mild-hybrid and high-performance S and RS variants.

Audi terus mengukuhkan kedudukannya dalam segmen sedan premium bersaiz penuh dengan pengenalan model terbaharu A6 Sedan, yang dijadualkan dilancarkan secara global mulai pertengahan April 2025. Model ini mewakili era baharu dalam reka bentuk kejuruteraan automotif Audi, dengan penekanan terhadap keanggunan, prestasi tinggi dan kecanggihan teknologi.

Model terkini ini mencatatkan pekali seretan hanya 0.23, menjadikannya model pengeluaran Audi paling aerodinamik dalam sejarah syarikat yang masih menggunakan enjin pembakaran dalaman. Keupayaan ini dicapai menerusi pendekatan holistik terhadap reka bentuk dan kejuruteraan, dengan perhatian khusus terhadap pengaliran udara dan kestabilan kenderaan.

Dari aspek trenkuasa, A6 Sedan baharu dikuasakan oleh pilihan enjin petrol dan diesel moden yang digabungkan dengan teknologi Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV). Sistem hibrid ringan ini membolehkan penggunaan tenaga elektrik secara terhad dalam pemanduan bandar berkelajuan rendah dan semasa meluncur, sekali gus meningkatkan kecekapan bahan api dan mengurangkan pelepasan karbon.

Audi has expanded its A6 model line with a new business-class sedan that merges elegance with technological sophistication. Set for a global rollout beginning mid-April 2025, the new A6 Sedan embodies the marque’s commitment to design excellence, aerodynamic efficiency, and driving comfort, marking a new chapter in the premium full-size segment.

This latest iteration of the A6 boasts a drag coefficient of just 0.23 — the lowest ever achieved by an Audi production model powered by an internal combustion engine. It exemplifies Audi’s advancement in aerodynamics, combining subtle design refinements with high-performance engineering to enhance both efficiency and performance.

Underpinning the new A6 is a range of modern petrol and diesel powertrains, all integrated with the brand’s MHEV plus mild-hybrid technology. This system supports the combustion engine with electric assistance, allowing smoother acceleration, lower emissions, and greater fuel efficiency. It also enables limited electric-only driving in low-speed urban conditions and while coasting. The line-up includes a 2.0-litre TDI four-cylinder engine producing 204PS, and a 3.0-litre TFSI six-cylinder delivering 367PS. Both benefit from the electrified system’s additional torque of up to 230Nm and a power boost of up to 24PS during overtaking or take-off, while recuperation during deceleration can reach up to 25 kW.
