This was what we discovered when Audi Philippines posted on Facebook about an electric vehicle (EV) that it will launch on Aug. 5, 2023 at the 30th East B Open Parking area in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City.

Audi's first-ever battery-electric vehicle is getting a new name and a facelift this year. The German automaker released a teaser photo of the e-tron SUV and the e-tron Sportback cleverly enveloped in a silhouette. Both models will now have the Q8 nameplate added to the e-tron badge once the unveil happens on Nov. 9, 2022. Confused? Hang on. Although nothing much stands out, what is clear is that the new Q8 e-tron will carry over the pre-facelift e-tron SUV model's cool LED taillights that look

Together with sister brand Porsche, the two Volkswagen Group companies are presumed to compete under different setups. Audi will be a full-blown manufacturer entry, while Porsche will be an engine supplier to Red Bull Racing.
