    Great review. Gorgeous car, gonna get one at some point. Presently have a PHEV 2020 Q5 55TSFIe and I love it. With 45km’s on it my fuel average so far is 2.5L/100km. ❤Basically the charge gives me ~35km pure electric which means all those short/local trips never use any gas.

    Leased this Q8 ET SB white/brown prestige with black optic package and 10 spoke wheels (Jul 2023 in CA). Lease deal cap reduction = $7500 tax incentive + $3k from Audi + $3k from dealer. Chose it over rivals from BMW, MB, & Tesla (didn’t consider Jag). Each has their + & -. Q8 best interior, very quiet, and great ride. Poor range, so far 250-260 @ 100%, 205 - 210 @ 80%. So so charging infrastructure, but we charge at home. If we travel we need a break every 250 mi anyway.

      I would personally wait until they figure out a replacement battery that won't catch on fire, get better range, won't take as much room, faster charging, cost less, and for them to start using axial flux motors, which are more power dense, weigh a LOT less.
      EV's are STILL in their infancy. For a modern EV, they literally barely a decade old. Look how long it took the auto industry to pull as much power as they can from ICE engines. They pull 400 HP out of a 2L 4 cylinder engines in cars whereas 50 years ago, they barely got that much out of an 8 cylinder engine that's literally over 3x the displacement. I remember my father owned a Mercedes 6.3 300 SEL and it was a 6.3 Liter engine with 300HP. And at the time it was one of the fastest production cars on the market.

    When I was test driving and reviewing my 2 Audis the electric ⚡️ one was over $1000 usd per month !!! As a lease ! With 2k down. Every day people can’t afford these EV unless you choose Hyundai.
