Nothing beats my four wheel drive diesel during the winter, I get three times the range of this Audi and all the cabin heat you can wish for. But I love your tests!
are you seriously comparing your diesel to a super saloon with 925HP? You might as well be commenting that on a video about a Ferrari F12 or an Aventador? You'll probably get three times the range as those cars 🤣
Wonderful test! I am rewatching a lot of your tests because i am buying used used e-tron Is there a link to a spreadsheet that contains cars further down the leaderboard?
Would be nice to see comparison between this measurement method and the “cheap” and also some other cars, for example the Model Y which is often mentioned as noisy.
I’m always perplexed at how low the speed limits are in Norway, but then when it snows, everyone keeps going at the same speed which just seems way too fast!
@ I have been living in Oslo for the last 4 years, but I’m from Denmark originally :) Anyway keep up the good work, your videos are really interesting 😊
HI! Has the noise level measuring any difference if the microphone is placed forward next to the head rest? I see it is facing the seat now, but i dont know how good a microphone is detecting noise from the sides or how directional it is. Kris thanks for making good youtube content. You seem to know a lot and share your honest opinions about cars which I like a lot 👍👍
That was just to show my microphone, I don't measure the noise levels in that position. I measure the noise levels at the headrest position on the passenger side. The microphone is omnidirectional, which means it picks up equal in all directions.
Love the E-tron GT, but the winter range aren't good enough.. Same as almost all other EV's.. Really bad winter range. I'm so glad I'm driving a Plug-In Hybrid during winter.. Got double the range as this GT.. And you also used Efficiency mode. Guess that's not AWD either.. Wonder what the range would be if it was locked in awd.
Do you really get 700km of range at -2c when there is snow and slush in the road going a steady 120kph? That would mean a consumption of 8,5/100km. Sure, you could probably do that in summer, but under these conditions? I find that hard to believe, so We should do a test. I hear diesel people claiming great range under similar conditions and speed as my test all the time, but when I try to find any videos about this I come up empty handed. So please link anything that supports these claims :) This being an EV it can engage that front motor in a fraction of a second when needed, just like your S60 T8 is FWD until the rear motor is needed, so same same. Another thing to remember is that this Audi has 21" wheels in winter and more than twice the power as your Volvo. A more fair comparison would be an S E-Tron GT on 19" wheels.
Congrats Audi, another machine without big tablet!!! 👏👏👏
don’t know that having a dated infotainment is something to congratulate
@ why dated? What do you need that the infotainment doesn’t provide?

Diesel for the win 🏆

you think you don’t get all the cabin heut on an electric car? 😂 you live under a rock, you can even preheat any electric car
I really like the addition of noise. I’m looking forward to the testing of more vehicles. Keep it up!
Wonderful test!

Absolutely! As soon as I retest cars we will get those results.

Haha! Where do you live and what are the speed limits there?

I think it is time the new 800 V 2-speed Mercedes CLA appears 😅

design is really only for enthusiasts
