AUDI S E-TRON GT - IS IT STILL THE BEST GT CAR YOU CAN BUY?

EV Channels Review

The Audi e-tron GT, particularly the revised S model, continues to impress as a premier Grand Tourer, even with a significant price increase. The reviewer highlights its stunning design, which is considered Audi's best since the original TT and arguably superior to the Porsche Taycan's. Performance is significantly improved with up to 680 PS and a 0-60 time of 3.4 seconds, coupled with a larger 97 kWh battery offering a WLTP range of up to 375 miles. Real-world range is estimated at an achievable 300 miles in mild weather. The chassis balance, refinement, and standard air suspension contribute to a comfortable yet capable driving experience, especially on open roads. However, the interior is criticized for feeling dated and not special enough for a six-figure car, with a notable issue being the touch-sensitive steering wheel buttons and a persistent dashboard rattle. Despite these drawbacks and its high price point (starting at £107,730 for the S model, with the reviewed car listing at £134,261), the reviewer concludes that the e-tron GT S is still the best GT car available, even questioning the need for the more expensive RS variants.
