Video Summary
- The Audi e-tron is now the Q8 e-tron, a facelifted version of a familiar model.- The gross battery size has been increased from 95 kWh to 114 kWh, a 20% increase in energy.
- Aerodynamics have been improved; drag coefficient dropped from 0.28 to 0.27. The sportback model achieves 0.24 with virtual mirrors.
- Smooth plastic has replaced indented rings in the Audi badge.
- Classic e-tron had a 76kW net capacity.
- The virtual mirrors are clumsy as the driver has to move their fingers on the door panel rather than just turn their head to get a different perspective.
- The tires are not as quiet as Nokian tires.
- The interior is unchanged.
- The reviewer has an issue with the car asking to be charged when it's already hooked up to a high power charger.
- Sound-proofing is a little disappointing; the competition is catching up. The reviewer rates the stock sound system a 9 out of 10.
- With this more efficient e-tron, you still have that Audi, but is it still really worth it? Maybe one should now consider BMW and Tesla.
