Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Improved dimensions with more cabin and cargo space
Significant upgrades to standard equipment
Quiet interior and great ride quality

Cons
Sluggish initial acceleration from a stop
Inconsistent electric motor "boost"
New Traffic Sign Assist needs refinement

By:

For 2021, Audi introduces a more affordable base model that features the Premium designation. Available on both the regular and Sportback e-tron, it costs about $9000 less than the mid-level Premium Plus. It can also be equipped with the Convenience Plus package, which includes driver assists such as adaptive cruise control. Audi also improves the e-tron's available battery capacity and efficiency. The regular e-tron now has an estimated driving range of 222 miles—18 more than its predecessor.

Pros
Whisper-quiet operation,
luxurious state-of-the-art cabin,
tows up to 4000 pounds.

Cons
Other luxury EVs have more range,
not very engaging behind the wheel,
none of the flashiness exhibited by rivals

Doesn’t look like an electric car,

Doesn’t look like an electric car,
electric mirrors an acquired taste
