The Audi Q6 is rated 104 MPGe (111 city, 96.5 highway) — that is not petrol economy but the distance it covers on 33.7 kWh, the energy held in one gallon. Drawn from a socket it needs 32.4 kWh per 100 miles, so 12,000 miles a year costs about $661 at $0.17 a kWh. The EPA's own annual figure for it is $750.
Every Audi Q6 version, compared
The Audi Q6 was rated in a single specification, so its consumption does not vary by version — only by model year. Yearly cost assumes 12,000 miles at $0.17 a kilowatt-hour.
| Version | Combined MPGe | City / Highway | Years | Charging per year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electric | 111 / 96.5 | 2025–2027 | $661 |
What that actually costs
MPGe is an abstraction; the electricity bill is not. At 12,000 miles a year the Audi Q6 draws about 3888 kWh, which at $0.17 comes to the figures below.
| Measure | Value |
|---|---|
| Energy use | 32.4 kWh per 100 miles |
| Cost per mile | $0.055 |
| Charging per year | $661 |
| Charging over five years | $3,305 |
| Against other Electric cars | −$20 a year |
| EPA's own estimate | $750 a year |
City or highway — who is this car for
The Audi Q6 is one of the cars that does better in town than out of it — 111 in the city against 96.5 on the highway. That is $52 a year in favour of the commuter stuck in traffic, and it usually means a hybrid drivetrain recovering energy every time you brake.
| Measure | Value | Reading |
|---|---|---|
| City | 111 MPGe | $620 a year if you only drive in town |
| Highway | 96.5 MPGe | $712 a year if you mostly commute |
| Gap | -14.5 MPGe (-13%) | Reversed — it does better in town than on the open road |
How the Q6 changed over the years
Combined figure across the 2 model years the Q6 was rated in, all of them at 104 MPGe.
| Model year | Combined MPGe | City / Highway | Versions offered | Charging per year |

How we count
This page rests on 2 EPA ratings of the Audi Q6 — 1 engine across 2025–2027. The mileage is EPA's laboratory figure, unchanged; the yearly bill is ours, at 12,000 miles and $0.17 a kilowatt-hour, against EPA's own estimate of $750. Full method.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Audi Q6 rated at?
104 MPGe combined on average — 111 in the city and 96.5 on the highway, per EPA ratings across 2025–2027. MPGe is distance covered on 33.7 kWh, the energy in a gallon of petrol — the car itself takes none.
How much does a Audi Q6 cost to charge per year?
About $661 at 12,000 miles and $0.17 a kilowatt-hour — roughly $3,305 over five years, or 0.055 dollars a mile.
Which Q6 version is the most efficient?
The Electric at 104 MPGe.
Is the Q6 efficient compared with similar cars?
Against other Electric cars it sits above the average of 101 MPGe, computed across 426 ratings.
Are these real-world Q6 figures?
No — they are EPA laboratory ratings, the same ones printed on the window sticker, and EPA's own annual fuel estimate for the Audi Q6 is $750 against the $661 we compute at 12,000 miles. Expect a little worse in practice: the spread between the city and highway figures is smaller than the spread between two drivers of the same one.
