Uploaded 3 years ago by Top Gear

Video Summary

Here is the summary of the YouTube video review:
- The Audi e-tron GT is based on the Porsche Taycan, but has an Audi interior and punchier looking body.
- The e-tron GT is longer, taller, and narrower than the Porsche.
- The Audi is intended to be a more relaxed GT, whereas the Porsche is more sporty.
- The reviewer notes that while it gets many admiring glances, the “dopls not a grill” piece makes it look like the car is wearing a gum shield.
- The taillights are a genius piece of Audi design.
- The standard e-tron GT’s battery has 93 kilowatt-hours with 85 usable; the RS version has a claimed range of 293 miles.
- The non-RS edition e-tron GT costs £81,000, and the RS version costs £113,000 and has 637 horsepower.
- You can get an 80 percent charge in 20 minutes with a 270-kilowatt rapid charger, but a home wallbox will take 13 hours.
- The car’s weight with options is 2,347 kilograms.
- The car is shaped more favorably than the Taycan, but its space is not generous.
- There is too much wind noise due to the lack of acoustic glass, and the rear visibility is rubbish.
- The tech in the e-tron GT is easier to use than the Taycan.
- The E-tron GT has Matrix Headlights with Laser Beams in the middle. They only turn on at over 43mph.
- On a test run the e-tron GT went from 0-60 in 4.19 seconds and 0-100 in 9.85 seconds, with top speed over 150mph.
- During a test run, it achieved 1.3 miles per kilowatt-hour, but taking it to a racetrack to make use of the handling the rate goes down to 1.2.
- The car can still be operated on Belgium pavé, due to normal buttons as opposed to touch-sensitive ones.
- The e-tron GT Quattro is balanced and fun to drive, and is probably the most enjoyable Audi made.
- For those with the money to consider it, it's a cool car.
