Audi e-tron 55 quattro in-depth review | What makes this one of the best premium electric SUVs?

[@anttiranki3690]

I have owned the 2020 e-tron now for 3 weeks, and I love it. Yes, the consumption is high on motorways. I've done one two way trip of 140 km+140km on the way there I drove with other cars roughly 126km/h on the cruise control with an average consumption of 27,9 kwh/100km. On the way back with same speed (no elevation change) I drove mainly alone at night time with a consumption of 32,7kwh/100km. Don't know about wind direction, roads were dry. On a trip of roughly 260km trip with mainly 80-100km/h roads speeds plus some town driving the average consumption was around 22-23kwh/100km. The car doesn't yet have the software update which should drop highway consumption slightly. On both occasions temperatures were around 13-20 C.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

@anttiranki3690 did the update happen? Any changes if it happened?

[@anttiranki3690]

@@15uj It was updated but I haven't noticed any major changes. After about 16 months my average consumption is around 24,6kw/100km after roughly 38000 km. During summer time range is around 340-400km and winter range around 240-340km

[@15uj]

@anttiranki3690 24,6kw/100km isnt that a bit on the high side? Im considering a used one at the moment - cant decide whether or not to buy.

[@CultOfMU]

@@anttiranki3690 my tiny e-Soul has about 19.6kwh/100km average over 18 months and 55000km. The only thing I really don't like about that car it is LOUD inside at higher speeds. Naturally I'm comparing it to my old cars, I've had couple A6's before :)

I own this actual car . Love it.

Hi there, great review, Is this the Mythos Black, and what trim level is this model in ??

[@daveiwhittle]

Love my 2021 Vorsprung and the virtual mirrors :)

[@CompletecarIe]

Did they take much getting used to?

[@daveiwhittle]

@@CompletecarIe not really, it took a day or so, in some conditions they are a little more difficult when reversing but with the 360 cameras it's easy enough :)

[@IrishEVOwnersAssociationIEVOA]

Great review!

[@CompletecarIe]

Thanks!

[@p1xiegirl]

Do you prefer this to the new Model X due out?

[@CompletecarIe]

This has better build quality than we have experienced in the Model X, though the Tesla battery provides great range.

[@thescallytrader]

What a dumb question. The New X will eat this for breakfast.

[@p1xiegirl]

Turn off the screen Haptic and the screen is way more responsive

[@CompletecarIe]

Thanks for the tip

[@paulhayes2189]

Just to say that the "330km range ...and in the real world it's about 300km" ....is BS. Get about 260km and 220km in winter

[@meridiancrap]

HOW MUCH!!

[@CompletecarIe]

New cars (even electric ones) aren't that cheap in Ireland. Especially when you compare to other European countries. ^Dave

[@conradmilson6654]

WTF are kilometers.

[@CompletecarIe]

It's a unit of measurement that we use here in Ireland.

With a click of a button you can raise the suspension higher and it will be as high as Q7

@Shepard Leroy I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@bradeneliseo5497]

@Shepard Leroy It worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thanks so much you saved my ass :D

[@shepardleroy6036]

@Braden Eliseo happy to help xD

[@maxant4285]

So your height is foot and inches and the distance you travel is kilometers?

[@CompletecarIe]

Yes, we're an inclusive lot here at Complete Car. ^Dave

[@sildipaskos8135]

Which black is this ? The mythos?

[@BatteryOnBoard]

Hm... 260km on the GOM at about 85-90% charge?

[@norwegianzound]

95kw/h is 86kw/h usable.

[@CompletecarIe]

👍🏻

[@nordle8325]

where is the battery "sandwiched" between?

[@CompletecarIe]

Between the underbody and the cabin floor.

[@richardw5375]

In between a q5 and a q7 that makes it a q6? 😂

[@CompletecarIe]

Almost, but Audi doesn't call it that!

[@frankcosgrove9958]

@@CompletecarIeit’s now called the Q8

[@stevencampbell1150]

Granted it is a premium EV but 90k is ridiculous and that's in the Republic of Ireland, in the north where I live it's not going to be that much cheaper plus as I'm travelling more so on motorways means I'll stick with my diesel thanks.

[@CompletecarIe]

If you're doing a lot of motorway miles, diesel is still the more efficient (in overall terms) option in most cases. ^Dave

[@radarsh1967]

Do larger EV's have good residuals in the second hand market?

[@CompletecarIe]

The residual values of EVs are firming up as demand increases. ^DH

[@paulhayes2189]

No lad. About 40 percent value after 3 years
