Man I havnt watched this channel in like 3 months and y'all are still making "Doug is the type of guy" jokes
That's because he looks like a type of guy, who...
And also because he is so likeable.
how dare u skip doug demuro for 3 months

Not watching Doug for 3 months is his very own quirk and feature.
The real dirty dan even after he dies I’m assuming the “type of nigga” jokes will continue
I read this in Doug’s voice
🤣
Doug writes the S from the bottom up, an interesting little quirk!
I thought that was normal.
They don't teach it that way in schools..its weird lol
@@Wimbold What, no. You weirdo.
What implies that this is a quirk, and not a feature?! I dare disagree!
Probably one of the best quirks in the entire automotive industry!
Doug is the type of guest who starts looking around your house To find QUIRKS and FEATURES......

Very important
Doug the type of guy to make a hum sound whilst operating his cart in the grocery store......
And he makes the beeping sound when he backs his grocery cart, like a commercial vehicle.
This actually made me laugh out loud xDD
Doug the kind of guy to hum to let his girl know he coming
And ticking sounds when turning corners.
😆
When riding my bicycle I'm always humming a tune to make sure people know I'm coming. So I've had that hi-tech feature for 30 years already.
cool bro
I really wish you would include your opinion on every car’s speaker audio quality!!!
any stock system will sound bad, aftermarket is always the way to go if you are an audiophile. You should look into focal utopia line.
Yeah how’s the sound!?
AthletismeQc I guess you never scene the speaker system in Model 3!
@@AthletismeQc That's not true, in the Premium segment the sound is dencent if you haven't got an audio package. With audio option they are very very good in Audi, Mercedes etc.
@@AthletismeQc
Stock base sound systems suck yes but stock premium sound systems (jbl, b&o, ml) *can* sound very good. I had a 2007 Camry hybrid with the upgraded 8speaker JBL sound system and it sounded amazing, but my dad drives a 2013 highlander hybrid with the JBL system and it's meh. I currently drive a 2012 Audi A6 with the base Bose audio and it's definitely lacking, but I test drove one with the B&O sound system and it sounded great.
I’m still waiting til the day Doug says “and today I’m going to steal it”

So many things you didn't hit on that other EVs at this price point don't have. The interior at night with the lighting its amazing, the Premium sound system sounds incredible, and the adjustable air ride suspension awesome! Another cool factor is the Audi lights when you open the door.
These are a steal right now. Absolutely best bang for the buck in the used EV space.

I am waiting for my q7 that I just ordered, and while waiting I asked to test drive the e-tron. It was a sport back and fully loaded. Let’s just say my brain is still on the backseat of it somewhere. This isn’t a just a car, although it does drive like one. It just truly feels like a future form of transportation. Can’t believe we lived to see this! And future is very exciting I promise you that!
Doug the type of guy to review a bicycle and give it one for acceleration
Doug is the kind of guy to give an off-roader a 2 score for handling.
bad ones just ruin the good ones
Unless it's a hybrid bicycle! The electric motor certainly gives it some extra thrust!
Acceleration 1
Styling 7
Handling 10
Fun factor 9
Cool factor 3
With the weekend total of 30/50
Features 2 (basket, backseat and water bottle holder)
Comfort 2
Quality 5
Practicality 5
Value 8
Which gives it 22/50
Add it up and the Doug score is 52/100 which isn’t bad at all considering the fact that this was $100 dollars has only 2 wheels and doesn’t have any batteries nor an engine.
The bicycle has the same score as the Jeep Wrangler unlimited, the Ford F-250 platinum, the Ferrari 348 ts and the Honda Odyssey elite.

Why did the Audi E-Tron in "Avengers: Endgame" make engine noises? I want answers!
jalopnik has those answers jalopnik.com/heres-why-the-electric-audi-e-tron-gt-in-avengers-endg-1834423004
According to an Audi Spokesperson:
"The filmmakers requested a sound for a specific scene in the new Avengers movie, a sound that actively supported the drama of the scene, including the gag when Tony Stark deliberately drove by.
On the basis of this request from the filmmakers, Audi experts developed a digitally-generated sound for the car. This sound was then further developed together with the sound experts from the filmmakers in order to fit perfectly into the scene.
As well as teasing the series production version of the E-tron GT in the movie, Audi is also teasing the topic of sound for its up-coming electric cars. In the near future, regulations will require that electric cars make a sound in many markets around the world.
The sound that Audi developed for the E-tron GT concept in the new Avengers movie is not the actual sound of the E-tron GT series production version - which goes into production in 2020."
@Lexus Troller He posts the videos in his autotrader column before they show up here.
53 minutes ago and this video was posted 11 minutes ago🤔 what sourcery is that
For drama.
That humm is the most terrifying thing I’ve ever heard
Yea so move out of the way when you hear it.
Finally somebody is talking about it
Watch Endgame when Tony decides to help the time and drives to them.
Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has similar sound when it goes fully electric
Avion and Joshua hear
I live in Norway, and its E-tron's on the streets!
Tesla's V2 chargers are 150 now. V3 (of which there are only 2 right now) can charge a long range model 3 at 250kw.
also, teslas batteries will actually endure this whereas audi did completely insufficient testing with their outdated chemistry
From personal experience.. it only charges at 250kw for like 3 mins at the start then flattens out on about 120-140 depending on the charger.
@@unlucky5442 thats how a charge curve works, the 250kw for 3-5 minutes is a massive change. it should charge at that rate for longer though, try charing when your battery is at about 15-20% and warm from driving.
@@drkastenbrot except the etron will hold 150 up to 80%. Model 3 drops off after a few minutes and continues downward.
@@wsrobert32 yeah thats not true on audis part or they dramatically reduce their battery lifetime. the few minutes with the model 3 is because of the physical ESR of the batteries, not because of overheating.
Im putting my money on VAG trying to make EVs "bad" so people go back to diesels, because that is simply a strategic decision to keep them dominating the market.

its 100% customizable pal. Up to 7 presets can be saved for the entire vehicle. Menus, seats, driving dynamics and all. Hit a button and the entire vehicle becomes exactly how you had it.
Those are shortcut buttons that have not been customized yet
I think it would help if they just took away those dividing lines. That way it wouldn't be obvious, but yeah these blank buttons are ridiculous.
Porsche is worse cos a fully set cayenne (idk the spelling) still has blank buttons cos of the hybrid version

Quick note Doug, the Tesla version 3 superchargers (4:45) can go up to 250 kW per car and they have recently updated to 145 kW for version 2 superchargers. The info you read may be a bit outdated, love your content Doug!
This! If you are going to make comparisons I think it's crucial to get your information correct.
It’s actually 150 kW now. They updated again
^This^
75 miles in 5 minutes. 1000 MPH charge rate for the model 3 on V3 super chargers at 250kW. 150kW on V2 super chargers. Facts are facts.
Is the v3 even out yet? Whatever it is, 800v taycan will beat it all. After Porsche has its fill, that will filter down to Audi, VW etc

I'm the type of guy who watched Doug Demuro videos and laughed at "Doug is the type of guy" Comments
Same here
About charging you are incorrect. The model 3 is now the fastest in production with charging at 250KW with v3. Also the model S has been updated to the same 150KW which is rolling out
And even if a model 3 was charging at "only" 120 kW, it would still gain range faster because it's way more efficient than the E-tron
Also doesn't matter how fast if the fast charging network infrastructure (and integration, reliability) isn't there to support it. That's a big advantage for Tesla, at least for now.
All good points. I'll add that empty to 80% charge time is a useless metric. What matters in the end is how much time you have to spend charging on long drives. Model 3 easily wins on this metric, since it's so efficient and since Superchargers are plentiful, allowing you to avoid filling the battery too much.
Here's a Model 3 long range charging at a v2 Supercharger, adding 200 miles of range in less than half an hour: th-cam.com/video/iE8kkfPlUv4/w-d-xo.html.
Before you buy an EV, try out www.abetterrouteplanner.com to see how practical it is for the routes you travel.
LA to Vegas requires over an hour charging in E-tron, and you have to stay under 62 MPH for 3 hours: abetterrouteplanner.com/?plan_uuid=df481524-7434-4d4e-ac46-e9a325f6b2f4.
Tesla Model X LR takes only 12 minutes to charge: abetterrouteplanner.com/?plan_uuid=d865ada5-6d6d-4b41-bb1c-484cdbd421c9.
Even the Model X SR needs only 16 minutes to charge. Model 3 is even faster, taking 10 minutes.
Conclusion: Doug is way off on the practically score.

Umm, coefficient of drag! That's why Teslas look the way they do. It's not just for attention, it's functional.
That's just not accurate - there are a number of sub-0.30cD vehicles that just aren't styled like Teslas at all.
The C6 Corvette was of course rather noteworthy when it came out in the mid-2000s for achieving a 'crazy' low drag coefficient - 0.287cD
Modern cars are significantly better though, even family sedans achieving much superior drag coefficients than even a performance-focused sports car like the C6 'vette...
The current Audi A6: looks like, quite literally, a 'normal' sedan - 0.26cD
The current Mazda3: also a 'normal' sedan - also 0.26cD
Mercedes B-class: a quite upright 'normal' hatchback - again 0.26
The current Hyundai Sonata hybrid: 'normal' sedan that doesn't even scream 'HYBRID!' in such form - 0.25cD
The Tesla Model S: looks like a Tesla, because why would you not want to make it obvious that it's NOT a 'normal' sedan(re: Apple commercial "what's a computer?") - 0.24cD
Heres one for you, the current M-B S-class, a notoriously huge car(granted, it's all in length) - a Tesla-matching 0.24cD
Even better, the gorgeous M-B CLA: it looks like a gorgeous CLA, but still a quite 'normal' 'coupe-sedan' - 0.22cD
No. High coefficient of drag automobiles DO NOT have to look like Toyota Priuses and Teslas - they absolutely CAN still look like "normal" cars, "normal" family sedans even.
@@RyTrapp0 you stated all cars, I'm only referencing the topic at hand. SUVs normally don't fair as well as cars. The Model X has a .24 drag coefficient. Do you watch other TH-camrs? Bjørn does great videos, and when he compared other SUV type EVs, one of Teslas biggest advantages was its slippery drag coefficient.
@ewanok except you know nothing about me to make that assertion, and people have always touted specs when comparing cars. Infiniti used to brag about how flat and aerodynamic the undercarriage of their cars were. They also would brag about their drag coefficients. This is nothing new in the automotive world. It's just nonsense Tesla haters parrot to act like Tesla fans are doing something new. Fans of anything will compare specs. As long as there is competition, then we'll always break out a spec sheet. Losers complain about specs, when they find out their specs are inferior.
surface area * DC is actually what matters
ewanok I love that morons act like drag coefficient is inconsequential to range.
The hum should be a v12 at idle, not a bad wheel bearing
You want to scare pedestrians or what?

I much prefer Tesla's range, Supercharging stations, always up to date OTA updates, much faster acceleration and lack of maintenance. Audi is trying to sell regular maintenance contracts on these eTrons as if they had oil changes... The 204mi range is horrendous when it's packing a 90kwh battery.

Great. And I can fill up my gas tank and get a range of 350 miles in about 3 minutes. Kicks ass compared to electric charging.
Cameron how many days a week do you go more than let’s say the 310 miles on the model 3? I thought like you did but I wake up to a full car in my drive way every morning and spend considerably less time refueling than with a gas car. On road trips there’s usually restaurants at the super chargers. I plan it so I stop when I would have stopped for food anyway and I’m on my way for another 250 miles after 30 minutes. It’s all better and that argument is only valid for people regularly drive 300 miles + on most days of the week.
@@camel717 doesnt matter, electric cars are still superior in every way possible compared to the combustion engine.

Great video with tons of interesting information. The only question I have left about this vehicle is does Audi sell a home charger for this vehicle and what are it’s performance specs? Thanks and well done!
They provide one for free with the car, in the us model it comes with a 120v 15 amp cable and a 240v 40A cable (requires a NEMA 14-50 receptacle in your home). You can get a bracket to mount it in your garage for a semi permanent install.
The 120v cable will charge in 80 hours, the 240v in about 9 hours.
Finally a car with enough room to get some head 💦 14:07

Seriously you ever try to get head in a camry guaranteed charlie horse
I'll be getting head in my Cybertruck, with my babe's ass on the marble dash.

"Doug Score"
Crazy coincidence, I just test drove this car last week! The silent acceleration is a little unnerving at first but once you're used to it it's a ton of fun. I'm fully convinced that electric cars are the future!
Lol and the carbon footprint powerplants leave behind to charge all these vehicles and the chemicals to make the dangerous battery cells not any better it's a gimmick and when will u make you're money back on this car by saving on gas it's so expensive
@@panagiotisf7228 "All of this really comes down to your electricity source, which is fairly easy to find out if you don’t already know. Depending on where you live this can change drastically. Looking at data from the U.S. Department of Energy, in Massachusetts we’re 69% natural gas, 16% nuclear, 8% renewable (solar, hydro, wind), and 4% coal ... and a few other random things round it out. A gasoline car produces 11,435 pounds of CO2 equivalent each year vs. an EV in Massachusetts at 3,533 pounds of CO2 equivalent each year. If you take a step back and look at the national average, EVs step up slightly to 4,453 pounds of CO2 equivalent per year. Move to a state like Missouri, which is 80% coal, and EVs produce 8,135 pounds of CO2 equivalent per year. Still better than gasoline cars, but nothing close to what we’re seeing in states like California at 1,974 pounds of CO2 for an EV each year.12 Even a purely coal electricity driven EV will pollute less than an average conventional gasoline car over its lifespan.13
It’s the emissions saved from using the car day to day that pull EVs way ahead of gasoline cars, and as more states and countries move into cleaner electricity, those numbers will continue to improve over time. Norway is nearly 100% renewable energy right now. And some surveyshave shown that between 28-40% of EV owners have solar panels on their homes, like I do.
And finally, the end of life of these cars. Lithium ion batteries can be recycled, which will keep hazardous materials from entering the waste system. Some car companies, like Renault with their Zoe EV in Europe, are taking degraded batteries and repurposing them into their whole home battery storage system.14 Tesla already has partners for recycling spent battery cells, but is planning to build out it’s internal recycling system to make all of the Gigafactories a closed loop system. It’s not only good for the environment, but it also makes financial sense because they can recoup a lot of valuable materials without having to dig for more.15 In the end, both gasoline and EVs put out just under one ton of CO2 during disposal." Please kys this is literally the future

3:15 recorded directly from the pits of hell
Creepy as fuck lol
The battery is 95 kWh but only has a 204 mile range. The Model X has a 75 kWh battery and a 250 mile range. How is it THAT bad with that huge of a battery?!
Audi is the most impressive carbrand. They are playmaker in like every class.
Cause it's a dumb giant SuV shit that makes no sense and weighs 200 tons and has aerodynamics like a refrigerator
I test drove one, they understate the range, it's closer to 400km (~250 miles)
its rushed and i can guarantee you pretty awful longevity, especially with the risky charge rates. it took tesla years to carefully optimize the battery charging profile using data from all teslas on the road. audi used outdated chemistry batteries and didnt bother to test them.
i suppose they want it to be expensive to maintain after a few years since it will drive people back to diesel cars, which is audis strength
@@drkastenbrot I still think waiting at least 3 years to buy any electric car is probably a good idea. My favorite is the Kona electric. Much better range, smaller battery, lifetime battery warranty, and much cheaper / more reliable.
Doug: this car is incredibly fast 500 feet of torque
*Gives it a 4 out of 10 in acceleration* 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
xXMediaTrix Agree, his statement and score always not match 😴😴😴
It's based on a scale that goes from 1 point at 7 seconds or slower to 10 points at 3 seconds or faster. Every car since the beginning of the Doug Score has been judged by this scale.
Yea it’s stupid. A car that goes 0-60 in 7 seconds is a 1/10 in acceleration, but a car that goes 0-60 in 15 seconds is also a 1/10.
Also the E-Tron has the same acceleration as the Model X but the Model X gets a 6 and the Audi a 4
The Doug Score is as rational as the idea of sleeping with both Hillary and Merkel, at the same time.
Doug the type of guy to still have the Christmas tree in his living room.
Lmao who doesn't
I set up my Christmas tree in mid October and I live in Southern California, we have like no winter, or an autumn.
Doug, can you spray some water to set it on fire? Just to test it. Thx mate
That electronic board that you write by hand is a minblowing feature
The range should be at around 300 miles.... 200 is not that great... I hope the offer an extended range version
Kia, Hyundai, and check have gotten to 250 mile range. I know they are smaller but still. The biggest think holding electric back is the lithium battery is getting almost to the max on charge time and distance. Hopefully a next gen battery can come out in the next decade, maybe graphene.
@@letsgoOs1002 well the Tesla model x gets around 325 miles. With the extended range model... I just thought we were well past the 200 mile range...
@@daviddoughty4516 And the new Model S Long Range is at 370 miles, incredible!
Brent Bristol when I have to visit a Customer for works purposes, it averages a 320 mile round trip. Until these cars are getting 400 miles, I can’t consider. I’m not driving round looking for a charger just in case. I can’t turn up hoping I can plug in at the clients office. Sometimes they just don’t have the parking facilities. I’m sure a lot of other drivers are in the same boat. Hopefully they will get there with the battery tech in the next 5 years.
@@gbjwal1 I think they will. Battery tech has come a long way in the last 5 years. The benefit that Tesla has is the Supercharger network. You can plug in and then stretch your legs and enjoy a coffee and be ready to go. Granted, currently driving an electric car today longer distance takes more planning then a traditional ICE car, but it can be done quite easily.
as someone who has worked on designing this car, thx for looking at it, you are my favourite car guy, greetings from Ingolstadt!
@@sorinpreda5738 technically I am one of the engineers who are working on the electric power train, so the high voltage battery and the charging electronic, but I agree the idea behind the car is: it's a normal Audi SUV, it just uses electricity instead of gasoline
Audi did a solid job with this SUV, although, I don't expect it to sell very well.
because it looks boring...my Q8 looks much better...
By far better looking vehicle comparing to Tesla. Looks like real car and not like the one you get at amusement park with 1 iPad in the middle and ridiculous cheap trims.
@@j.bisbal4599 I don't think it's just that. The range here is just dismal
just took mine on a GA to FL road trip. wasnt bad at all. electrify america chargers are spaced appropriately so you can fast charge at the needed intervals
It actually sells really well in Europe. Consistently between 2k and 4k a month which, for a luxury car, ain't bad at all.
Doug's tan line is so strong I thought it was his undershirt 😂😂
