Audi E-Tron (2018-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Refined and roomy	Not as enjoyable to drive as the Jaguar I-Pace
Superb build quality more than lives up to the price	Tesla Model X has a longer range
Class-leading infotainment system	More expensive than a Merc EQC

Quick Summary

The Audi E-Tron (2018-present) is a pure electric SUV, larger than the Audi Q5, offering impressive passenger and luggage space with a 605-litre boot. Available with 95kWh (E-Tron 55) or 71kWh (E-Tron 50) batteries, it delivers a refined and comfortable cruising experience. Its cabin boasts superb build quality and a class-leading infotainment system with large touchscreens and digital dials, supporting Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

While the E-Tron 55's 402bhp provides ample power, it doesn't offer the thrilling dynamics of some rivals, and real-world range for the 55 is around 180-200 miles. Running costs for electricity and servicing are generally low, although insurance is high and large tyres are expensive. In 2023, the E-Tron was renamed the Q8 E-Tron, coinciding with updates for larger batteries and extended ranges.

Best for: Drivers seeking a luxurious, refined, and spacious electric SUV with a premium interior and advanced infotainment, who appreciate lower fuel and servicing costs.

Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising thrilling driving dynamics, maximum electric range, or those on a tighter budget concerned about high insurance and tyre costs, or who find its real-world efficiency disappointing.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the E-Tron if: You're seeking a luxurious, refined, and spacious electric SUV with a premium interior and advanced infotainment, who appreciate lower fuel and servicing costs.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise thrilling driving dynamics, maximum electric range, or are on a tighter budget concerned about high insurance and tyre costs, or find its real-world efficiency disappointing.

Competitive Position: The Audi E-Tron establishes itself as a luxurious, refined, and spacious electric SUV within the premium market. It excels with its superb build quality, plush interior, and advanced infotainment system, offering a comfortable and sophisticated driving experience. However, it doesn't match the dynamic engagement of the Jaguar I-Pace or the outright range and practicality of the Tesla Model X. Its appeal lies in its strong brand prestige and emphasis on luxury, making it a compelling choice for buyers prioritising comfort and premium aesthetics.
