Why change? My e-tron blends in. It doesn’t say “hey look at me, I’m a Prius, or I’m saving the world in my Tesla”. My e-tron has been a joy to own. I traded in an Avant, and was able to go electric on the sly. I don’t need to virtue signal to others. At a recent stop at Electrify America, a Mach E driver saw me and said “Audi makes EV’s? I never knew.” That is me in stealth mode.

As an long time Audi driver, I definitely appreciate Audi sticking to the original values of the brand such as build quality, interior, noise cancellation, driving experience etc. as opposed to littering all sorts of irrelevant electric features all over the cockpit. Let's keep those tactile buttons etc. and I know several other Audi owners that basically are asking to only slightly modernize the car design etc. but do it on an all electric modern platform. We're obviously very conservative when it comes to car designs I guess.

Usually I agree more with Roman but Tommy hit the nail on the head with the styling, in a sense. One reason why I'm not the biggest fan of say the Ionic 5 is because I don't want something that looks like a spaceship, I want a normal looking car. As far as the shifter goes, I'm a couple of years younger than Roman but I'm still old enough to remember when most cars (at least automatics) had the shifters on the column. I also remember when more and more cars started moving them to its current location a LOT of people complained & guess what, people got used to it. The thing I hate though & where I agree with most auto reviewers is the removal of buttons for audio & HVAC mostly because it's just not safe. I don't care about not having a physical keyboard or something tactile on my phone but those knobs should be like a regular keyboard for your computer where you don't have to look to perform the function. This is something where NTSB, NTSA or whoever needs to step in because anytime you have to take your eyes off the road, even for a second, to make sure you are hitting the right button that is dangerous & it's also why you can't text and drive.

You are totally correct. My Rivian R1T will automatically disable cruise control when I unbuckle my seatbelt to remove my jacket while driving, thus slowing down like I just put the brakes on (due to quad motor regen), but at the same time the digital screen allows me to dangerously type on the virtual keyboard to search for a lengthy song name and or artist in Spotify, or screw around with the digital HVAC controls ad nauseum. Because the controls are not tactile they require you to remove your eyes from the road and thus your situational awareness. As much as Driver+ and Tesla self-driving claim to eventually remove the necessity to pay attention at all times, these software-based driver systems are currently horrendous. I was almost rear ended in my Model Y with my whole family in the backseats due to phantom braking, which if you look on the forums is a major issue, and of course Tesla isn't even acknowledging the problem. I took the car into service and they told me off. Oh and you can't turn off their terrible vision-based emergency braking even if you want to, as it re-engages the system every time you put the car into Drive mode. I'm currently looking to ditch the model Y and go back to a regular car that doesn't try and kill me and my family because it has a buggy software AEB system. Overall these car manufacturers are trying to deploy new tech faster than it is safe to do so, then when things go wrong they hide behind over the air updates or "prove it by capturing a video" excuses.

I am 100% with Roman, I am sick and tired of car companies reinventing the wheel and going against convention. The quintessential example is removing the AC controls and making them digital, which is a huge distraction when driving and makes me a less safe driver. Another example are the door handles on the Rivian: they tried to copy Tesla's funky door handles, except that when the truck or SUV is unlocked they protrude outwards, which is an open invitation to thieves, signaling that your vehicle is unlocked and screams "come grab me and steal what I have inside." Same thing with Tesla removing the turn signal stalk, and Rivian and Tesla removing door lock buttons, making you hunt and peck for them on a digital screen instead of pressing them where they should be--conveniently located on the door itself.

When Roman gets grumpy he starts hunting and pecking for arguments and lands on stuff that makes no sense. Like comparing it to vehicles that are in a class above or below, or the resale value when most evs have terrible resale values, or the conservative approach to design when there really NEEDS to be an option like that and it's the only one in the segment for those people that's left.

This "get used to it" is just an another way of say poor design. Modern car should not only be safer to drive, the should be simpler as well. And most certainly not more complex. I also agree with Roman's description of the cabin being claustrophobic. Like the trend to coupefy SUVs -- it defeats the purpose. An SUV should be open and spacious. The reason people are drawn to them -- over sedans -- in the first place. Between this and the Cadillac, I'd chose the domestic. Never thought I'd say that in a million years.

When it comes to a price above 90000 USD then on the North American market of EVs I would argue most folks would choose a proper SUV with on road and off road capabilities, good towing like Rivian R1S instead of a conservatively styled CUV looking Audi Etron. As Roman noticed the leg and especially head room in the rear is not enough for the price, prestige. I care less about styling vs practicality since I believe the buyer gets attracted by styling but after purchase LIVE with car's practicality or the lack of it.

I love Grumpy Roman for keeping it real. This thing is a throw-away vehicle to be leased for 2-3 years. The interior is too small for a Q8 as well as being too cold and austere. The lack of hard buttons is also an ergonomic fail. Overall 6/10.

Most all German cars make one grumpy. Wait 4 to 5 years and prepare to drain your wallet. Why anyone would buy German is a headshaker. My work van is a MB SPRINTER...already spent 3 weeks this year in the shop. Count on 1 to 3 weeks every year for something to fail. Epic junk boxes. No Toyota I have owned comes close to how bad German crap can be.

Needless complexity, lots of plastic, unreliable electronics - never own a European car out of warranty

Where I live all the Audi drivers seem to be women in their 70s. Kind of confirms Roman's view.

Ya that shouldn't be a q8 q8 is the flagship that seems a step down from the a8 should be q4 or q5

What a contradiction by Audi to maintain a conservative exterior while “reinventing” interior components and presenting multiple touch screens. A thousand thanks for pointing out the handle pinch point flaw, to me it means the designers are not actually driving home in the cars they help build. Rock on!

these are super cheap used. half price or less for a 2019 e-tron that is basically the same as even the 2024 Q8 e-tron
