As a growing number of electric vehicles hit the market, car manufacturers have been looking at different ways to encourage shoppers to make the switch from combustion engines. Offering free fast-charging is proving to be one of the most popular incentives offered for buyers of new EVs.

Audi has also announced that it has partnered with sustainable infrastructure provider Qmerit to provide at-home charging solutions. Customers can choose to use the 2-in-1 mobile charger that comes standard with the vehicle and offers both 120-volt and 240-volt connections. They can also opt to have an Electrify America HomeStation installed that is WiFi capable and offers 9.6 kW of charging power.

By comparison, the RS E-Tron GT delivers 590 hp and 612 lb-ft in standard mode and 637 hp on overboost.
