In the midst of a thorough refresh of its lineup, Audi is bringing a host of new cars to the LA Auto Show next week. And while most are ones we’ve seen before, there is one new one: The e-tron GT concept.

The A6, A7, and A8 will all be on stand, and though they’re all new-for-2019 models, we’ve seen them all before. The Q8 crossover will also be on the stand showing off its 335-hp 3.0L V6.

Hot off of its world debut in September, the e-tron electric crossover will be at the show. It will be the first time for the public to get to see it bevore it arrives to market next year.

But all-new at the show will be the e-tron GT concept. That car is set to bring some more sport to Audi’s electric lineup. Audi has already teased the curvaceous four-door coupe shape but hasn’t told us just quite exactly what it will be. Claims have been floated that it will trade range for power and that it will share a platform with the Porsche Taycan.

The E-Tron GT comes from the Audi Sport lineup, the performance arm of the company responsible for cars like the RS models and the R8. The e-tron GT’s reveal is set for Audi’s press conference, which takes place at 1:05 p.m. PST on Nov. 28.
