You need to check your information regarding BIK, ie company car tax. It's not 16%. Its currently 0%. 21/22 is 1% and 22/33 is 2%. Huge difference and a reason why many company car owners are going electric.
Picked up Edition One last week. Interior and fit and finish clearly superior to I pace and Tesla; Not as quick as either; not an issue but it certainly depends on driving habits and preference. E Tron has plenty of linear acceleration for me (my prior car was Macan Turbo). More quiet than Tesla, although I pace does a pretty good job at wind noise. Infotainment package better than I Pace, but Tesla's single screen setup could be preferred for a more Apple-like feel. Personally, I like the E Tron package and I don't find it daunting especially once you customize it. Handling on curves is certainly not on par with I Pace, but I didn't get it to throw it around curves like my Macan. Range was in issue although I'm getting 220 on display based on my driving habits. I would not get E Tron if I anticipated more than 5-6 plus 200 mile road trips a year. Bottom line, E Tron better for more conservative owner who averages less than 100 miles per day and relishes no drama, luxurious driving as opposed to rally like experience.
You can switch of the haptic feedback ont the front screens and just have capacitive touch. Also, non USB-C in the back means it is NOT a 2021 version. Tisk tisk. Also also, the lip in the back is meant for avoiding stuff rolling out. It's a feature, not a bug.
I have one and love it. I am curious as to how I would comfortably drive on the right side as in the UK. My left hand is useless. If it had a manual trans, I really don't think I could deal with it. The touch screens, not as much of an issue, but still a challenge.
Got a solution or a thought for those 10' screens that are a bit dangerous and difficult to use on the move ..how about only allowing them to be actually used whilst parked or stopped like at traffic lights, maybe? your thoughts please..oh and if you have to use them whilst driving have it on voice commands only..
I presume you mean 10", and not "10 foot". That aside - you seem to be assuming that touch screens are "a bit dangerous". Based on what? Your own clearly flawed imagination? I've been driving my Model S for 6 years, and I can tell you quite plainly that the touchscreen is LESS dangerous/distracting than everything I'd had in the past, and I've been driving for 30 years.
They've missed a trick with the virtual door mirrors. Why not have the option of having the view displayed next to the steering wheel so the driver can see the offside without moving their eyes.
I don’t know why Audi didn’t offer a combination of both door mirrors e.g. camera + mirror allowing max visibility angles that way technophobes or someone unfamiliar with the tech can borrow the car without reading the manual, also at nighttime it’s not always practical to have a bright light monitor on so having both would give the user the abuts to disable when not needed
@@ram64man Funny you should say that - I'm about to get an e-tron with the digital mirrors and I'm planning to investigate options for "aftermarket" mountable door mirrors (real mirrors) in an attempt to get some of the best of both worlds.
@@edstratton don’t pay for the virtual cam setup, two people I know who own the launch edition really don’t like them and have had 1 replaced as they don’t auto fold and was clipped, there biggest issue was it was hard to see in direct sun on the passenger side.

Complaint about not having a front trunk ? Oh please that’s not a deal breaker so it just gas a place to put the charge cables you won’t be needing (after all who has an ev without a wall box) at least Audi made it water proof Unlike the i3
So I have driven both ( a week with each). The iPace is faster and handles sportier for sure. The Audi has a much nicer interior, it's not even close. The Jaguar is full of cheap plastic and the infotainment is god awful slow to respond. The Audi is much more comfortable. The Jaguar feels cramped. All depends on whats important to you.
I dont know why Audi didnt just enter the market rethought, but with mass build capable quality? IE. An impressive computer that you can configure to your liking? Why not run at Tesla head on?
Tesla do have mileage restrictions on its battery cover, for the model 3. Check the terms and conditions as it differs depending on which variant you go for! Sneaky sneaky.
I test drove the e-tron (UK) and found that, while very nice, it was very Audi and just felt fairly standard in comparison to the I-pace. Also, the infotainment touch screen (the "buttons" on the right hand side) were really poorly responsive. Sometimes I was having to push 4-5 times before it would register, which may well have just been a problem with the model I was driving.
@Keli K. That would have been useful to know! I thought the system was just horribly unresponsive / not user friendly. It was really frustrating in the 30 mins or so that I had with the car.
not really sure why they keep comparing this , i-pace and eqc to a model x?? the price difference is huge ! you would expect the model x to be better being 10s of thousands of pounds more :/
You don't say anything about the costs...what happens when the batteries worn out? In a diesel if the turbo goes out then you replace the turbo, in a reg engine a pipe bursts you replace the pipe which is not too much trouble but when the batteries for this E tron worn out then what? What would be the cost? How long these batteries run for before they go bust? 2 years? 3 years?
Great in-depth review! Very much appreciated. One question, do the mirror cameras help with visibility from the approaching High Beams? Thank's ... By the way the gram bars in the front are common & very useful when making a unexpected or quick turn. Helps a great deal, Ive had many cars with this feature. Not too impressed with the materials that went into the vehicle. I found the Hybrid Lincon Aviator has a Much Much better interior.
More tired cliches and poor analysis. Having lip on a boot is actually helpful - stops things rolling out when the boot lid opens. Also no mention of only two isofix in the rear - means you can only carry two kids in the back - unlike the Tesla and Q7.
@@tommihuhtinen8975 Ok, let's compare it to a Jaguar I-Pace. That got 253 miles from 90kWh. Even the larger Tesla Model X got 233 miles from a battery pack just 5kWh larger than the Audi. Whatever way you cut it, 196 miles out of a 95kWh battery pack is really not good.
@@portnaluinge You should know that what is written on the package doesn't have to be inside. The capacity of the 90 kwh battery of the Model X is actualy more than claimed and with the 95 kwh of the E-Tron it is the opposit. Result is that the battery of the X has more capacity than the E-Tron.
I think the EQC looks better and feels great inside but the e-tron is even more luxurious, more practical (bigger space) and has a smoother ride over bumps and rough surfaces due to its air suspension, so for me it has to be the e-tron. Shame because that EQC does look sooo good.
Love the music at Intro! Not keen on that colour... I have a video on the Audi E-tron too, 1 that doesn't come with wing mirrors (one of the 1st production cars ) if you want to check it out? ua-cam.com/video/svq4GO_7yas/v-deo.html
what is the point of this car especially when you for same or lower price you can get Tesla X with much better performance and range and more room inside and so on!!?'!! this car is for rich and stupid only or stupidly rich
Mr11ESSE111 , well, then you might as well say; what's the point of buying a BMW X5 instead of a volvo xc90, it's basically the same car but with half the price of the bmw. And yet people still buy bmw and audi. They always will. And honestly, as long as it's electronic, i dont see why they shouldnt.
@@drakemartin1580 x5 and volvo have around same price but perfornance are on bmw side while this here cannot compete vs tesla x in almost anything especially in performance and range but prices are almost same
@@drakemartin1580 whoever buy this shit it is stupid or rich or stupidly rich !! with this e tron you must drjve very carefully to have some range of 250km and that means 70-80km/h and i woyld not go on some longer journsy while in italy some italian manage to have 1040km range with p100 tesla
Mr11ESSE111 I guess you’re the stupid guy here... Range is only one thing of many things that are important. I had a Model X for three years and I really liked it but the e-Tron is better for so many reasons. I have this car for two months and the first thing you’ll notice is that the e-Tron is so much quieter than the Model X. The next thing is interior quality... The Model X is like a typical American car, looks good from the outside but the interior is trash. Cheap materials everywhere and even the steering wheel feels like plastic. Also, range doesn’t look to bad when you compare it to the standard range Model X 100 (e-Tron 417km WLTP vs Model X 100 375km WLTP) which costs 15000€ more! Audi Cruise Control is actually better than the Autopilot because it reads the traffic signs and automatically increases/reduces the speed limit. I don’t make many long trips but Ionity is there for you. Munich to Berlin and Hamburg to Munich were no problem at all, when cruising at 135kmh you’ll get about 340km of range.
@@lorenzmuller4000 where is audi e tron better?? range is most important thing on electric cars and recharging /speed recharging you fool!! you are in those who are stupid and rich!! where do you go and how far away from home when you go with e tron?? will you go somewhere on 1000+km away with stupid electric car especially stupid ones as e tron ??!! i think that with scooter i will get faster then you with e tron !!! e tron and similar garbage from mercedes and audi exist only to get down emision for all cars while with electric cars generally they are on lose only
This car is PATHETIC! Why? Only a 200 mile range?!?! And that is for a car priced $75,000...and for that price they couldn't even include the at-home fast charger - they want you to pay extra for that. Pffftt.......This car suffers from the same "Trio of Troubles" as all EV's do - overpriced and unaffordable for your average consumer, extremely limited range and slow recharge time. I doubt you will see these flying out of the showrooms at $1200 monthly car payment.
People like information including these kind of details. Having said that, he didn't even talk about the different brake regen levels and how they feel....
Buy anything BUT the Audi eTron!!!!! It is a gorgeous automobile, but the dealer support and customer support are quite bad. The charger that they supply with the car CANNOT be used for charging in a condo building, as the highest voltage that is permissible in commercial buildings is 208 - the Audi charger is programmed to NOT accept that. So you can charge at the 110 volt level, which gives you 1 mile of charge per hour. That's right, charging overnight for 12 hours allows you to drive 12 miles the next day. All of the other electric vehicles have chargers that accept and will charge at the 208 level. When I complained, they offered a bunch of other vendors to purchase a different charger. I think that for $90,000 Audi should give you a f***ing charger that works wherever you live. OR they should at least warn you of this problem and let you make an informed choice. Spend your money on a Tesla. . .
That sounds more like a problem with your condo than the car. Have you considered a different EVSE? What amperage for 110v? At 15A/120V you should be getting 5 mph, unless the car is outside in the freezing cold.
Because most of the tesla haters are retards. They prefer to drive on inificient car just because he looks good. Most of the new Tesla with the same battery as the Audi made 600km, if the Audi make 250km will be a miracle, that car drag 2.5t. So any day give me a Tesla. Autopilot better range and the most safe car in Euroncap.
At best, this video is a shameless move to garner more page views. Renaming an old 2019 video a "2021" review. At worst it is misleading, as this is not the most recent incarnation of the e-tron. This is the type behaviour I would expect from a teenager that is addicted to UA-cam statistics. Not from a reputable publication like What Car?
So in summary, it is more expensive than the competition, as well as slower, has a shorter range and is less pleasant to drive - what a winner from VW. The cabin is however quite nice so long as you like grey. I suspect VW just grabbed one of their current SUV platforms, ripped out the stinking diesel and replaced with an electric motor and batteries. The market is probably limited to mums who need to drop the kids off at school before going to her job at a nail bar, with perhaps a trip to Lidl at lunchtime to collect pizza and red bull for the children's tea.
Price - no problem for many who appreciate quality and luxury, Speed - who the hell really NEEDS to drive a car faster than the e-tron? Range - a return trip of 196 miles is more than enough for millions of people except on rare occasions, Less pleasant to drive - Whaaat?? What are you on? The e-tron is super luxurious to drive and so incredibly comfortable and so smooth on that air suspension, and ultra ultra quiet (especially with the acoustic glass) - ooooh lovely! Yep it's the winner for me alright!
EV CARS SAVE 60 PERCENT ON MAINTENANCE PER YEAR AND OFFER ATTRACTIVE TAX CREDIT S. SO WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT ? U PROBABLY ARE JUST A PAID TROLL WORKING FOR BIG OIL.
Brian Kirby lmao I swear you people are worst than religious people. We are not at a point where electric cars are more cost efficient yet because if that eas the case everyone would buy them. 60% of yearly maintenance? Ok?? All I do is a oil change which means I would save $40 per year big deal that’s not enough to offset the initial inflated cost over 10 years of ownership.

So in summary, it is more expensive than the competition, as well as slower, has a shorter range and is less pleasant to drive - what a winner from VW. The cabin is however quite nice so long as you like grey. I suspect VW just grabbed one of their current SUV platforms, ripped out the stinking diesel and replaced with an electric motor and batteries. The market is probably limited to mums who need to drop the kids off at school before going to her job at a nail bar, with perhaps a trip to Lidl at lunchtime to collect pizza and red bull for the children's tea.
Price - no problem for many who appreciate quality and luxury,
Speed - who the hell really NEEDS to drive a car faster than the e-tron?
Range - a return trip of 196 miles is more than enough for millions of people except on rare occasions,
Less pleasant to drive - Whaaat?? What are you on? The e-tron is super luxurious to drive and so incredibly comfortable and so smooth on that air suspension, and ultra ultra quiet (especially with the acoustic glass) - ooooh lovely! Yep it's the winner for me alright!
Doesn’t look quite nice? D’you need glasses, mate?
tesla is so unreliable
waste of money
Not cost effective
EV CARS SAVE 60 PERCENT ON MAINTENANCE PER YEAR AND OFFER ATTRACTIVE TAX CREDIT S. SO WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT ? U PROBABLY ARE JUST A PAID TROLL WORKING FOR BIG OIL.
PERHAP S UR RIGHT !
@@briankirby6714 Is talking about the 97kw battery have less range that same 100kw on tesla model X.
Less more.
Brian Kirby lmao I swear you people are worst than religious people. We are not at a point where electric cars are more cost efficient yet because if that eas the case everyone would buy them. 60% of yearly maintenance? Ok?? All I do is a oil change which means I would save $40 per year big deal that’s not enough to offset the initial inflated cost over 10 years of ownership.
Dear Audi stop chasing fads with screens, buttons are safer and easier to use. I like it otherwise.
VW will kidding you . . .
Bagain
