Audi will introduce its new A9 e-tron electric flagship sedan as soon as 2024, according to a new international report. The A9 e-tron model will be one of the first developed under Audi’s Artemis project – an initiative announced by Audi CEO Markus Duesmann last month to “focus on new technologies for electric (and) highly automated driving” – as a step towards the brand’s goal of having 75 electric models by 2029.

All variants of BMW’s next-generation M5 sedan model will receive some form of electrification from 2024, a new report out of the UK has claimed. Car magazine says that from 2024 onwards, the flagship sedan M5 model will only be available with a plug-in hybrid or full-electric powertrain option.

Porsche’s all-electric Taycan range will see a significant expansion over the next 20 months, if a report from Spanish publication Motor.es is to be believed.

Porsche has released the most affordable version of its first-ever electric vehicle, the Taycan 4S, ahead of its arrival Down Under late in 2020. Pricing for the new model hasn't been confirmed, but expect the car to cost around $200,000 before on-road costs when it arrives next year. That would make the 4S – at this point the least expensive Taycan model – around $25,000 more expensive than the range-topping Tesla Model S based on the American brand's current pricing.
