The Audi A3 e-tron model will not be a pure electric drive model and will be a plug in hybrid model powered by a 1.4 litre engine along with an electric motor.
The electric car market within the UK has been an interesting observance, as the sales figures have rocketed and the popularity of an electric car model continues to increase.
