AUDI E-TRON S - IS THIS THE BEST E-TRON AUDI MAKES?

EV Channels Review

The Audi e-tron S is presented as the performance flagship of Audi's electric SUV lineup, boasting a triple-motor setup and enhanced dynamics. While the reviewer acknowledges the car's impressive build quality, distinctive styling, and significant chassis improvements over the standard e-tron, these positives are overshadowed by critical drawbacks. The steering is described as numb and unengaging, a stark contrast to the otherwise capable handling. More significantly, the e-tron S suffers from a "ludicrously high price" and a "poor range" from its 95 kWh battery, achieving only around 221 miles, which is deemed disappointing. Despite its performance credentials, the reviewer concludes that the e-tron S fails to justify its cost and limitations when compared to more compelling alternatives like the Jaguar I-Pace and Porsche Taycan Cross Turismo, which offer similar capabilities with better range and value.
