2022 Audi e-tron S Sportback

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2022 e-tron S Sportback.

Engine Electric

As the S-badged Sportback variant in Audi's electric lineup, the 2022 e-tron S Sportback pairs a sloping coupe-like roofline with a fully electric powertrain, occupying a distinctive position in the brand's EV portfolio. Owner-reported data for this model year shows 14 total complaints filed alongside two recalls, a contained footprint in which the top complaint category is logged simply as Unknown or Other — a notable gap in identifiable patterns for anyone tracking recurring issues. Because the e-tron S Sportback remains a relatively young nameplate, this 2022 entry represents one of the earliest data points in the variant's reliability history, serving as a baseline against which subsequent model years can be measured. For analysts charting how the model matures, it functions less as a verdict and more as an opening chapter.
