A 2022 Audi RS e-tron GT Quattro, configured with over $23,000 in options and showing 23,000 miles, is offered on dealer consignment with a clean California title and a documented July 2023 damage entry.

A 2022 Audi RS e-tron GT Quattro with 23,000 miles is being offered for sale on dealer consignment, carrying a factory-rated 637 horsepower and a specification sheet that added more than $23,000 to its original price. The car was acquired new by its current owner and is finished in an Audi Exclusive gray over Arras Red Nappa leather, a combination that anchors a long list of performance and luxury equipment.
The electric grand tourer draws power from a dual-synchronous motor system fed by a 93-kWh battery with active liquid cooling. Output is quoted at 637 horsepower and 612 lb-ft of torque, sent to all four wheels through a single-speed front transmission, a two-speed rear transmission and Audi’s Quattro all-wheel drive. The car also features adjustable regenerative braking, adaptive air suspension, e-Torque Vectoring Plus and Power Steering Plus with rear-wheel steering, all fitted as part of the Performance Package.
Exterior details include platinum-finished 21-inch Trapezoid Module Design wheels mounted with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires, matrix-design LED headlights, Audi Laser Light, a panoramic fixed-glass roof, heated auto-dimming side mirrors and optional black badging. The Performance Package added a high-gloss black grille and black mirror caps, while dual-pane side glass came with the Prestige Package. The window sticker lists initial delivery to Audi Monterey Peninsula of Seaside, California, and a total suggested retail price of $127,345.
Inside, the Full Leather Package extends the Arras Red Nappa leather to the dashboard, centre console and door panels, and adds honeycomb seat inserts. The front seats are heated, ventilated and massaging, with adjustable side and leg bolsters, while the rear seats are also heated. The Premium Package brings a head-up display, a top-view camera system, adaptive cruise control with lane guidance, LED interior lighting and a Bang & Olufsen 3D sound system. Other equipment includes driver-seat position memory, three-zone automatic climate control, a wireless charging pad, Audi MMI Navigation Plus with a 10.1-inch touchscreen, matte carbon atlas accents and a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel with paddle shifters. A 12.3-inch Audi Virtual Cockpit Plus display shows the digital odometer reading of 23,000 miles.
The car’s history includes a Carfax report entry noting damage in July 2023. The dealer states that the right rear door was replaced as a result. More recently, the brake lines were replaced under warranty in November 2024, and the heater was also replaced under warranty that same month. The sale includes a window sticker, manufacturer’s literature and a clean California title.
The RS e-tron GT sits at the top of Audi’s electric range, combining the Volkswagen Group’s J1 platform with a grand-touring body and a chassis tuned for long-distance pace rather than outright track aggression. Its dual-motor layout and two-speed rear gearbox are designed to balance low-speed response with sustained high-speed efficiency, a configuration that helped establish the model as a credible alternative to other high-performance electric saloons and coupes.
For buyers, the specification is central to the car’s appeal. The Audi Exclusive paint and Arras Red leather interior are relatively rare, and the combination of the Prestige, Performance and Full Leather packages means few options were left unticked. The documented warranty work on the brake lines and heater, together with the replaced rear door, gives a clear paper trail for a used electric performance car whose battery, motors and thermal management are the main long-term considerations.
The listing is handled by a BaT Local Partner on dealer consignment. With 23,000 miles on the odometer, the car remains a low-mileage example of a model that has become a reference point for electric performance in the premium segment.
