After owning a 2021 etron for a while now and I am impressed. The air ride is top notch, and on long trips is as good as my old A8. Around town I love the fact that I don’t have to wait for my engine to reach operating temps to drive normally. I only wish I could have about 50 more miles of range out of a 80% charge.

[@nicu3661]

Don't understand all the bashing. They are obviously not going to say the rival is better. It's a promotional video. Get it. And what they mentioned about Tesla is actually not too far from the truth (two years waiting time for a Model 3 can surely be seen as "production difficulties"). Maybe we should just take a moment to appreciate that someone is putting tons of money into a new tech, which is ultimately going to benefit the consumer. If you ask me, while the car might not be as revolutionary as the model S was, it's still helping to improve electric mobility. And just look at those amazing rear-view mirrors...

[@CybertuxSpain]

And the build quality...

[@istt]

I'm reading all these pro-Tesla posts. I drove a Tesla and it was like driving a Lego toy compared to the e tron. The Tesla was whistling in the cab at 70mph. By comparison, the e tron was completely quiet. It's why I purchased an e tron after test driving all the EVs.

[@JohnSmithExtra]

We're hardcore Toyota/Lexus and never thought about ever purchasing a German vehicle, let alone an Audi. We found this EV out by accident 2 weeks ago and I'm so glad my wife bought it. It's amazing on snow and ice over here in Central Texas during our snow storm/freeze, blew my mind, it's like driving on asphalt. I am positive these Continental SportCross XL also play a good part of the dry/wet/ice/ and snow grip. The interior is very good, finally got rid of the laptop screen above the vent and has more touch interface. This car can easily obsolete all my purpose built vehicles (all in one vehicle, E-Tron). Wish it had the dual motors in the rear for Torque Vectoring though. :(

[@benceujvari960]

The E tron s has tri motors, but i guess it comes with a higher price...

[@anthonycbrown1952]

Thank you Audi for illustrating why Tesla engineering while interesting has numerous shortcomings. The quality assurance techniques illustrated throughout the video are illustrative as to why Tesla will have profitability problems. The root cause of the higher than normal quality assurance issues and service / repair costs at Tesla can be traced to their need to rush cars to market and the limits of their automotive expertise in engineering and quality assurance.

[@mikeybthepilot]

Maybe if Audi got rid of the giant, useless fake grill on the front they'd have fewer aerodynamic issues...

[@khanyithegreat]

Pretty sure the Germans know what they are doing. As you can see they are testing rigorously and they have a shit ton of resources to get this shit right not to mention the production capability

[@pepstein]

I don't know if it's the grille, but I agree they need to improve coefficient of drag in order to compete with Tesla.

[@LaszloTanczos1]

They shrink the intake size on e-tron. The intake is still needed if you want to cool down your vehicle in hot weather. Of course you lose some coefficient, but I prefer the temperature comfort over +20 miles. That's why they developed the side mirrors, to compensate the drag coefficient. They would be able to create better drag coefficient, but they didn't want to sacrifice comfort and audi style.

[@mikeybthepilot]

Ladislav Tánczos I understand there is still a need for a grill and cooling as EV’s still have radiators. But radiators in EV’s are much smaller than their gas counterparts. A small opening or slit would do which is effectively what the car has hidden in the giant fake grill but it’s pretty obvious that the big ugly grill on the E-tron is mostly fake. Why have an ugly fake grill? Why not a small practical grill instead with a much cleaner front end? They’re using oil car design language on a whole new type of car. It would be like having all of today’s cars still look like horseless carriages. Tesla and Porsche have moved on from fake grills already. An electric car with a giant, non-functional grill is just dumb.

Really funny: Reinventing a new side mirror for aerodynamic reasons but bringing a suv on the market! I would say a suv isn't a matching car for 95% of the customers because of just city traffic, but let's do a little bit of green washing.. what's about the idea of making a real efficient car? Less than 10kwh per 100km?

[@conradpaul489]

Range is all about number of batteries... and cost of the batteries that is why Teslas are more expensive, you are just paying for the batts

[@David_Journey]

@@conradpaul489 not true, compare Rivian and Tesla. Both of them have comparable range, but Tesla can squeeze out those miles from a smaller battery. Smaller battery means less weight - which improves handing and cuts down on wear and tear plus increases useful payload of the car. So efficiency (# of miles covered per 1 kWh does matter). If battery degrades these inefficiencies just get more pronounced

[@DS-pk4eh]

The problem is we are still talking about very expensive 100K cars, people want 30K electric cars with some fair range

true, but need start somewhere. prices will go down by the time and when they start make other models than SUVs. Also adds more electric cars to secondhand market

[@pangrac1]

Video camera side "mirrors" are rather nice gimmicks. The responsiveness (lag) of picture and dynamic range of the sensors is not yet there. Also there is the another problem, when you are looking down at the screen in the doors your are missing what's going on behind side windows with your peripheral vision and therefore you are not aware of any danger from side space at the same time. 👀🤷‍♂️ Audi, rather improve air drag of the whole car body before you cut off side mirrors. 👈 Camera mirrors cloud be big improvement for the driver if used like helper with traditional mirrors.
