Audi has pulled the wraps off their new SUV concept at the Geneva Motor Show, with the concept itself being powered by a mild hybrid powertrain that produces 469hp (476PS) and 516lb-ft (700Nm) of torque, allowing it to accelerate from 0-62mph (0-100km/h) in 4.7 seconds and on to a top speed of 170mph (275km/h). 

The hybrid powertrain is new and combines a 443hp 3.0-litre V6 TFSI with a 27hp (20kW) electric motor while a 48-volt electrical system is responsible for keeping the electricity flowing.
