An Electric Starlet and Athletes at the Audi Stand

With the A2 e-tron making its first public appearance, several sports cars and even a Formula 1 car, Audi aims to attract attention at the 2026 Paris Motor Show.

There will be an impressive lineup at the Audi stand. SUVs to occupy space, sports cars to fuel dreams, and a new contender determined to steal the limelight from its bigger sisters: the A2 e-tron. For its first outing in front of the public, the compact electric car will be one of the main attractions of the brand at the 2026 Paris Motor Show. In a lineup where large models abound, this small newcomer has a nice card to play.

But the starlet will have to share the spotlight. The Audi RS 5, the S6 Avant e-tron, and the RS e-tron GT will bring their share of muscle to the exhibition. And for those who still find these cars too sensible, the single-seater Audi R26 will remind everyone that the four rings have also invested in the Formula 1 starting grid. This time, it’s hard to ask for a test drive around the block.

An Audi for Everyone

Another atmosphere with the A3, which will celebrate its 30th anniversary in Paris, the same place where it was unveiled in 1996. This longevity does not prevent it from continuing its path, notably with a Sportback e-hybrid version. The new Q7 and A6 allroad will also make their first appearances in front of the public, while the Q3, Q4 e-tron, and Q6 e-tron will complete the picture.

Two years after proclaiming “Audi is back,” the manufacturer announces more than thirty new models launched since 2024. The program is therefore substantial. It remains to be seen what additional surprises will be unveiled during the conference on Monday, October 12, at 1:10 PM. The little A2 will already have a lot to do to keep all the attention.
