The AUDI E5 is a battery electric compact executive car produced by SAIC Audi under the China-only AUDI marque owned by Audi. It is the first vehicle co-developed between Chinese car manufacturer SAIC Motor and Audi. The car does not feature the four rings logo and the AUDI name is stylised in capitals, as it is considered a distinct brand for the Chinese market.{{Cite web |date=2025-04-22 |title=VW presents outlook on product offensive in China - electrive.com |url=https://www.electrive.com/2025/04/22/vw-presents-outlook-on-product-offensive-in-china/ |access-date=2025-04-22 |website=www.electrive.com |language=en-US}}
