I believe the E-Tron is rear wheel bias only in dynamic/sport mode. Tesla Bjorn review. Also, you spoke incorrectly when shifting gear. Back is drive. Forward is reverse
on 1:10 you said motor instead of engine, this is a very common misconception. motors are electric, engines are combustion. so this car does not have an engine, but indeed has a motor(s) instead. Good video.
DigitalYojimbo Depends on which tesla it is. If its the base tesla model X then maybe. I dont know if the tesla without ludicrous mode is faster or slower than a Etron with boost. The base level tesla model X does 0-60 in 4.4 seconds with ludicrous mode. But theres notering written about how well it does without it. The Etron 55 does 0-60 in about 5.4s and it has 408 horsepower.
The recharge rate is not an Industry first as there aren’t any U.S. chargers that powerful except Tesla’s SuoerCharger V3 which is 225Kw per hour or 80% in 15 minutes .
Rick G I am aware of all that but what car can accept 350kw. From what I understand... nothing has been out yet with that type of recharge ability before the etron
Rick G Yes. I get all that . My question was what car are you driving that charges at 350kw. From what you wrote Tesla will be the first to charge at above 200kw tomorrow ? You said you charge above 150kw often ?!
ABSOLUTELY! Was invited to an Audi preview event in my city and configured my Prestige edition Etron and deposited on it. Can’t wait for it to be shipped from Europe. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Nope! The battery isn't better. And I don't think the motor is either. But I stand corrected on that one. Battery and motor is the heart and soul of the all-electric car. And so, in my opinion, the car that has the better battery and motor is best. But the interior of the eTron is no doubt better than the Tesla.
If you compare it to the Model X Long Rage which is almost the same price as the Audi E Tron Exclusive, model x got about 350 miles of range and the audi about 250. The model x acceleration is 4.9 seconds while the audi uses about 5.6 seconds... The model x's trunk and frunk is bigger pluss the model x tow hitch capacity is about 2400kg while the audi about 1800kg... am i done yet
As much as I love it, there is only one CCS charger in the state of Mississippi, and it’s on the coast, so I cannot make this my next car unless several more CCS chargers are implemented in Mississippi.
The Germans are conservative. My '16 e-Golf is EPA rated at 87 miles but it sees 110 regularly. EPA also under rates diesels. My'15 Golf wagon is rated at 42mpg highway, but I average 59mpg. That converts to 800 miles of range per fill up
Charge stations is missing for Audi. BlueLA is an all-electric car company. New company and have many charge stations. Please Audi do something, add your own charge stations.
@@alexalexander5777 Yes you are right, they still have a long way to go compared to Tesla, but its not like Audi is doing nothing, they are making efforts and they have a relatively good infrastructure by now as well as expanding it every day.
By the end of 2019, Electrify America will have 400 charging sites, with 2,000 charging stations, with 150 kW and 350 kW charging capability, and about 80% of the Interstate will be strung. More Charging stations to come in the following years.
No, I have not. However, you should give Alex from "Efor Electric" an eTron for a week or two. His Tesla lease is up in a few months and he loves the eTron. His channel is one of the best. Wishing you the best.
Audi has managed to totally ruin the interior design. They used to be slick and harmonic with wonderful lines but now they seem to go for the edgy 1983 transformer look. It's retro in a very clumsy manner. Not worthy a premium brand such as Audi. Well, at least they were premium looking prior to this sudden shift towards interior ugliness.
.... essential facts... good photography .... clear sound .... well done!
Appreciate the support, John!
Nice review , the calm voice keep me all the way . I will subscribe .
Thanks! Look forward to showing you more videos!
@@audiriverside Do you consider a red bow tie ?!?
Definitely something to consider for future videos!
Is it me or this guy looks like a younger Alice Cooper without hairs?
I believe the E-Tron is rear wheel bias only in dynamic/sport mode.
Tesla Bjorn review.
Also, you spoke incorrectly when shifting gear.
Back is drive.
Forward is reverse
No need for corrections.
I like it. Wish the best selling this vehicle.
Appreciate the support!
Wish the English this comment.

No one cares
Good precise to the point review.
Thank you!
I would wait till the camera mirrors are here too..
Design wise I like it better than model 3&y ...which are hideous to me. but still leaning towards a tesla (s or x)
Cool car. Looks fancy
It sure is! Let us know if you have any questions about it. Here to help!
1:20 Actually it has motors, but it doesn't have engines.
It was so annoying lol
Wrong.
doesn't non ludicrous mode still have more torque than the audi with boost mode ?

This particular option DOES not come with 20 inch wheels. You have 21 inch on this particular vehicle.
I currently have an i3S Rex, do you have one to test drive?
Not yet but we'll let you know when we do!
So, what's the rated range on a full charge?
204 miles

Rick G 350kw lol ok- where in California? What vehicle ?

Rick G.. you’re a clown! You just deleted your statements lol. Stupid troll!
I know it’s an electric car but does it also still take gas ?
100% electric. No fuel and no maintenance!
The first purely electric SUV from Audi. No gas!
Personally, are you excited with the big push towards EV's from luxury brands ?
Yes.
We are! So excited that electric has gone Audi!
ABSOLUTELY! Was invited to an Audi preview event in my city and configured my Prestige edition Etron and deposited on it. Can’t wait for it to be shipped from Europe. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
made it to 1:35. the car has electric MOTORS. Cars that burn gasoline have ENGINES.
Good man👍
Better that Tesla in and out.

So true
Power meter like the Rolls Royce.
Думаю, надо получать удовольствие от скачки, пока ты на коне.
Why would I want to own a vehicle that looks "menacing" when I approach other vehicles?
Because rich people enjoy terrorizing plebs.
I agree.
I love it
It's a beauty! Thinking about getting one?

Electrify America/Ionity (in Europe) Audi is part of it

Did the dog pee at the front wheel
I think these guys are in California and its been raining a lot lately
Nice vehicle. Verbose commentary.
Which there was a vegan interior option like Tesla.
i like the leather version. Might as well use that cow hide for something
Leather, not pleather!
let's hope not
Cows are vegan's, therefore... It's truly a vegan interior
Me too
Glad to see that this awesome EV does NOT have a huge, ugly, childish computer screen, like the Tesla! it's a proper luxury car!
It sure is! Have you had the chance to see one in person?
No, I have not. However, you should give Alex from "Efor Electric" an eTron for a week or two. His Tesla lease is up in a few months and he loves the eTron. His channel is one of the best. Wishing you the best.

To plastic.
the design is such a mess
Lines are so messy... probably designed by the same group of incompetent fools who did Q7.
I think if Braun made an SUV, this is what it would like. It looks like ugly, oversized Braun Electric shaver.
