This is the Audi e-tron S Sportback!
It’s the sporty variant of Audi’s first all-electric SUV, and Mat’s got his hands on it for the first time! The question is, how much will it differ compared to the usual e-tron?
Well before we even look at how back seat & boot space is effected, we need to talk about performance! Given that this is the S edition, it’s graced with THREE electric motors to produce 503hp and almost 1,000Nm of torque!
So it’s clearly not lacking in power! But how does it the sloping roofline effect headspace in the back? And more importantly, even with that mammoth amount of torque, is this S edition actually worth the huge £89,000 price tag?!
There’s only one way to find out… Keep watching for Mat’s latest long-term review!

Looks like bmw x6
I’d choose Dacia sandero or taking the bus
Tesla is given compatition
Audi has taken the headlight tech to the NEXT LEVEL
Facts
Audi was alweys pioneer in lights technology.
Bmw : we've made our cars cheaper
Merc : we've added power and improved the infotainment
Audi : we have lazers for headlights
@@sentientspaghetti1898 bmw made them cheaper because now a lot of their cars are fwd
Audi does more than headlights
They have 4 wheel steering on their bigger models so they don't sundersteer anymore
Audi hasn't came with new generatons in a pretty long time so there's nothimg they can improve yet
@@sentientspaghetti1898 BMW had the first production lazer headlights.
Sportback without frameless doors is like Matt without the stick of truth
Pointless car
@@visionist7 Whats pointless about it?
Sportback is just audi’s term for 4 door/sloping roof line. First audi a3 sportback didn’t have frameless windows either (nor does it now).
@@neitusp8546 it costs the same as a Cayenne S and has the solutions of a Tiguan
@@visionist7 Whats Tiguan about it?

"It's ok" is NOT what I want to hear when I spend 90000 on a car.
Well its super comfortable and quite sporty at the same time, thats what I would expect from a 90k SUV
90k ill buy a 12c 🤦🏼♂️
Well you have your own brain so have your own opinion abt the car just like he has his own opinion
it's German he was going to love it regardless lmao not to say this car isn't good just that he is willing to overlook things here
Imagine spending that much and still physically move the steering wheel by hand.
I don't care if its faster than any Tesla or has more range cause all e-trons look sooo much better than any Tesla
Facts
Most cars in general look better than any Tesla lol
Anything that isn't Tesla is wonderful
Doc: what brought you here today, Mat?
Mat: when you reach a bit further down, things do get a little bit scratchy 😬
4:49 this hand motion should be a recognition signal for carwow fans
Personally I like the front grill. It makes the concept of an electric car a lot less alien and different looking, versus doing so by removing a lot of conventional car features
"...and you've got lights that do all kinds of funny dances and stuff and scrolling scrolling indicators..."
I felt that.
Great review as always Mat. I did 4.41sec with the one I tested with Dragy. You're faster 😜 Btw, the normal mirrors look SO much better. Cheers

verified youtuber
Watch his last review, defo not 'as always'
4.4 so poor for electric car...
I did a consistent 4.2, 0-100 with the racebox (video on my channel 😊)
Haha watch his last Tucson review, defo not great as always
Finally showing the ambient lighting!!!! Great job Mat (and editor)
it feels overwhelmingly average. but better than most EVs were a few years ago, so in the right direction!
With that orange... definitely not. But the rest... perhaps...
@@georgedowns4034 i do like the color a lot
You feel overwhelming average
You mean it's in the direction the globalists want us to be headed....
@@deejayimm man , so insecure about a car, if an alternative is better than electric they will go for it , solar cells/ synthetic fuels are already being developed, stop crying mate , we don't want to know how much you are afraid of those" GlObAaliStS!!"
Way too heavy and expensive. Fancy lights don't make up for no cup holders in the rear.
Ikr also only 503 hp and 240 miles range which is garbage compared to teslas. I don't want a tesla but the competition is taking sooo long to catch up its annoying. Audi basically put bricks in it to make it weigh 2.7 tonnes. And for the price anyone would want to get a petrol car instead
@@raymondsouza7097 wait for the Q4 E-tron to come out. It won't be as sporty, but will be a lot smaller and lighter than this tank. I still like the Sportback though.
@@snakeeyes9246 but it'll be a lot smaller tho. There really should be other options for 7 seater electric suvs other than the model X. Imma wait for a good Japanese or Korean large suv. Hopefully I'm rich enough to buy one tho lol. This reply doesn't make any sense since the etron is also a 5 seater.
An absolutely stupid and pointless car. I’m all for EVs, but nobody needs these giant SUVs no matter how they are powered.
@@raymondsouza7097 bricks in what? Are you ok?
That looks wicked! Audi making the best steps towards electric with this and the e-tron GT!
Looks cool yeah but with that range&performance VW failed a bit
Hilarious ^
@@mastodon5220 Give them some time, they are the Germans after all. They invented the car
@@straightbusta2609 First of all Daimler AG invented it ( Mercedes-Benz 1886 ) ^^ wtf
second with that price tag dude its a joke Tesla all the way:)
@@mastodon5220 nah that would be Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot 1769. Mercedes just gave it gas combustion engine.
Light across the back on an Audi, Mat: that's lovely
Light across the back on a Hyundai, Mat: WHY ARE THEY COPYING DESIGN FEATURES??!!
Well they are
@@iconsumedmt1350 Yeah of course but so is Audi. The problem is Mat only mentions it in a negative way when it comes to Asian cars.
@@FLRSKLVR there is no shame in admitting that when Asians design their own cars, it always ends up being very boring. In my eyes, that actually represents how much the Japanese value form over function. It’s like how the Germans actually make Italian sports cars but let them design them. It’s just that copying is something I will always frown upon.
Audi have been nailing styling for the past few years, for a chunky car it's actually really good looking.
too bad AUDI cant nail ELECTRONICS and WIREING , they are made like eTron = like SHIT.
@@markplott4820 you literally spelt wiring wrong and you are saying Audi can’t perfect the electronics and wiring
I wonder if the car brands watch these videos and takes notes
There is only one thing to say isn't there.
We gotta see a drag race.
Not a drag, but a track race. Cause a X is good on a straight line, but how does it handles..?
@@djrobhan its got a rlly low centre of gravity bcs of where the batteries are, but yeah, a track race would be cool.
Of course there is also the review on the Model X
@@qasidkashif7175 the Long range version of the X got beaten by 6 seconds by a standard e-tron in a race done by 5th gear a year ago. Would be cool to see a new race with P100D against the Sportsback S.
@@djrobhan oh I get it now yeah that would be entertaining
I don't like the drag races, but too silly
I’ve got an Audi e-tron 50 Quattro, beautiful car. While it isn’t as quick as a Tesla, or doesn’t have the range, everything else about it, is on another level IMO. Build quality and ride comfort far superior. Looks better too.
Autopilot and Supercharger and other Features (summon, Software Updates..)
@@badema2638 And still I’d choose an Audi
It is more expensive, does not fit 7, no supercharger, no autopilot, much lower range, lower speed, no videogame mode, no Netflix, no camping mode, no DOG/BABY safe mode, no panoramic glass top, no fart mode... for me the math is very simple... it is 6 years behind Tesla if you consider the new models being lauched right now.
@@renatob2482 dont forget everything is an extra. Its gonna be expensive af
@@renatob2482 lol at no fart mode. Goes to show the maturity and priority of Tesla owners
Matt, thanks fir the quality content!
Please do comparisons between the g wagen and the new model x when it comes out off-road and trip practicality!
Thanks
You forgot to mention the virtual mirrors that replace the standard mirrors in favor of screens on the inside (also reduces drag and increases range slightly). Really changes the look, when I first worked on those it was a bit strange but now its just funny.
Loving the way you mock the colour yet spec'd a Green RS6😁
Slightly looks like an enlarged ford focus from the side, though overall seems to have many design cues from the Urus; not surprised here as they've been borrowing from their imported brands a few times.
It’s an SUV, it’s always going to look like a melted block of cheese no matter what “extra trim” they fit on to it.
Audi knows how to make a good looking , feeling, driving car.
Why don't they do it then?
Glad to see that in this case, unlike the Tucson, the light bar was "not" copied from Seat Leon, and the tail lights where "not" copied from Peugeot 3008.
I was thinking exactly the same.. 👍
After Tucson video, I just want to dislike all of his other videos
@@asadabdullaev8804 me to!
I'll guess, Hyundai never copies design. There designs are also what they are known for.
Cuz both of them copied it from Audi in the first place
One of few Matt's videos that we can actually SEE the ambient lighting

@@8ilalx Relax buddy.
@@8ilalx wtf?
The grill looks like the a old Audi grill
Looks like they’ve copied it from somewhere..
Saw a black one just now on the street, looked really good.
This is easily the best looking electric SUV in the market.
For me it just doesn't look good. It looks heavy and over-designed, like the designers didn't know when to stop adding bits and pieces everywhere. I'm not a big Fan of Teslas super-minimalistic design too, but a middle-ground like the new C-Class for example just feels way more desireable for me personally, it looks more "naturally elegant" and well thought trough.
i love it personally. Far more interesting than the blobby eqc and almost toned down when compared to the ix or whatever BMW's equivalent is being called. That said, to be fair to it, people will buy the Sportback for the slightly more aggressive over-styled look in comparison to a standard non s line e Tron so i think the added styling parts is justified to a certain degree. And I am not a fan of the c class, the outgoing model yes, but the brand new one no thanks. Feels like Mercedes is going backwards with its design philosophy lately which is a shame. Brilliant cars but styling wise internally and externally its not for me but again brilliant cars. Sorry this is long, could go on for hours talking about design
It looks pudgy.
The normal etron can Look incredibly good, much better than this sportback....
It looks way different in person too, More of like a A6 than a Q Model as its pretty low
The normal etron in dark Blue with the black pack looks way better because youre right, this just looks overdone in this spec
Better still, buy a second hand small hatchback for about £5,000 and spend the remaining £85,000 on property and investments.
Not an Audi fan but they’re bringing the heat right now, just like Mat
What heat? Lol
@@Rezcuz at least when the heating breakes, you won't freeze :D
But I like Audi lol
Audi has always had nice looking cars, but i don't think i'd buy one myself. However this car looks cheap and i don't know why. The grill and all the sideskirts looks like cheap plastic, but they aren't the only one guilty of doing that.
i like how he tests materials and functions of a screen like a true end-user, scratch the hell out of this, poke the shit out of that
Why is the volume for the car wow advert at the beginning turned up, nearly burst my fucking eardrums wearing headphones
imagine having the money and picking this over a Taycan.
I can't imagine anyone picking either
@@robertcook2572 shit comment, try again.
If you get the non sportback s, then its just as fast as a taycan for the same price but a lot more practical
Imagine buying a taycan and then seeing the model S plaid
@@herkiee1 if 0.2 sec faster 0-60 is the only thing you care about sure
8:42 First time I saw mat is not sitting in front boot.
I hope lots of people spec this color! Looks amazing 😍👌
I like you Matt, personally, you're really funny. But why is the Carwow intro YELLING at me? It' quite rude.
I think its the first time i see you recomend avoid a car, thanks for your honest opinion

Yay I really wanted this review!
Same
@@aidenjoseph3069 No I’m not, I really wanted to see this.
Yeah agree the headlight system is cool
I got one in October20 fantastic car!
Only Matt Watson would recommend us to buy this car through their trusted dealers and save almost 10k pounds just to finish the video and say not to buy it.
Batteries are still too heavy and expensive, which this model is making a great example out of.
I mean not really mate in 10 years the batteries will be fucked
I love how mister Watson just swipes left right up and down, the Entertainment screen
3:50 nice "Demolition man" ester egg. 👍
10:30 Meanwhile the driver in that car in front is wondering what a collapsed Sun is doind behind him
Beautiful design and interior, marred by extremely un-competitive range and performance. You can do better Audi!
And price ....very expensive
Idk, in that colour with the silver trim it looks super hidious
audi can't really do anything about the range tho. They use lg chem batteries, not their fault they have lower capacity than in house tesla batteries.
@@kirilmihaylov1934 yeah, but you get what you pay for
@@unlucky5442 not always
2.7 tons used for carrying 70 kilograms, now that's efficiency.
Great review Mat!😸
Doesnt matter who is first, Mat is a god at his job
True
Yes yes case closed,now let's all get back to the video😁😂😂😂
Mat must have done some serious blow before this one. Everything got slapped around xD
6:55 not sure where you got your figures from but the I pace boot is not larger, it is 557l. I think you might have looked up the f pace stats for boot size
I think this sportback etron is quite a looker especially in S guise!
Why haven’t you demonstrated the headlight projection animations ?
2:57
@@koumagnonable thats not the animations
he did, go to the 5 cool features and it is demonstrated there from other sources
you should definitely lower the voice of the Carwow promotion, because is so big difference between when mat talks and the promotion.... I hate it!

Nice review....
i love how he touches everything he points out
£95,000 for second-rate plastic in the back?
lmao exactly. That used to buy a Ferrari 25 years ago. Now it buys a mediocre invisible SUV
When you think about it, you can get a new Mercedes S class sedan for almost the same price...

Hey Matt
Do you know Wheels24 in South Africa is using your Videos in their articles ?
Matt clearly having a hangover 🤣🤣🤣
ill take the model x for sure
Or Model Y performance, both way more value packed.
That silver trim looks so cheap
My 2014 sq5 floded the rear seats from the back, it’s like they making everything backwards now days
Thanks for doing the baby car seat test!!! Is that behind your seating position?
“Very responsive” as the infotainment visibly lags
Mat didn't like the light bar on the Tucson though. It was from a Seat Leon right?
Not all light bar's are created equal.
At least the Tuscon's wheel arches lined up correctly and didn't look tacked on. 02:11
Even that “consider” Tucson has reclining seats and softer material on rear doors, rear climate zone, fully opening rear windows with blinds & levers to fold seats from the boot...be good if Audi copied it into their car 3x the price
@@akshaypatel3338
Yeah, but the Tuscon copied all of that from other vehicles, so 🤷♂️

Ahh they put the bloody s line badge on the boot oh my god foooked the whole thing up mate
Please make a video for Q8 60 TFSI-e . Regards
I just realised they have been using the same carryon bags for years 😂
They got new ones after he broke the pink and blue ones in the (white)Range Rover review
And they've never been on a plane

We need an all electric drag race - teslas and taycans and e-trons and shit
Today full fun video mat! 😅😅😅
I would love to see a review on the new vw arteon hibrid .
Lets be honest, all of the silver should be black.
Yes, and fortunately you can order it with black details. 😊
The grill should be black, it would look so much better.
Yeah that will make it better otherwise this colour looks hideous.
That will be an option, probaly an expensive one
I was looking for this comment. The silver is hidious in my opinion... Looks so cheap lmao. Imagine this monster in full black with yellow/red brakes. Oh my that would be sexy. Beautiful car tho!

So misleading when you say you can charge it in 30 minutes. The amount of true 150kw chargers in the wild is tiny and most of them share multiple chare points.
"Quicker and better than Model X?"
No.
Model x definetely quicker only when the battery is above 80% whereas these Germany EV's power is always constant even the battery is at 10%. Tesla needs to improve on their interior and exterior design it's just dull to look at it.but still it's a great car
3:57 Yoda has taken control of Matt
ive been watching carwow for a year and I still dont know which team mat suports
BMW all the way.
What happened to the “Camera mirrors” they were deffo rubbish coz everyone was n is complaining about it!
Got them on my Etron S Sportback and regretted choosing that option. Flat image doesn’t help understanding the surrounding plus, condensation between the camera and the glass creates glare and « fog » on the screen. No wonder why you don’t see them on the new GT or upcoming Q4 Etron
It's an option and I don't think they're available in every country due to regulations.
They're a good idea just put in the wrong place, the screens needed to be higher up
