Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!!

Love the interior of the Audi, love the exterior of the Taycan

I won’t even consider new BMWs because their interior design looks so cheap with the big screen. But maybe BMW interiors have always been boring

Very wrong, Audi screwed up with the Two level Touch Screen setup on their older ICE cars. They put a 2nd screen in a lower binacel which replaced physical buttons and knobs. It has been widely panned critically. They didn't want to make the same mistake on this stunning eTron GT.

Precisely why I have one, they don't overdo it.

Taycan is easily better then this car in every way. Not to even mention the new taycan turbo gt that just posted a 7:07 around nurumbring

Thank you for that, I won’t buy one.

thanks for sharing!

I noticed the same … used one locally for $82K & it was listed for over a month with no takers.

Every EV going to be like this 😂

@@krasnaludek298EVs are like any new technological thing, every day news of a “new” improvement on battery tech or something makes the current version seem dated and not worth much like how much is an older IPhone worth?

great news for you and me haha

​@@TheStraightPipesTesla's still wanting top dollar for used. More than new. That's why I went new.

All the same

No, they are not. SanDisk is very reliable

@@xue8888Maybe not SanDisk as a brand, but their portable SSDs are failing very frequently. Look up “SanDisk portable SSD failures” there are many articles discussing the topic. Also SanDisk is preparing a firmware update to mitigate the issue, no mentions of refunds to those who had the drives fail already.

Im sure the MTTF is comparable in the industry … what numbers have you seen ? Or is this your opinion?

The 4TB is a disaster, I know at least 2 people lost their data and they are not recovering them, even Sandisk are recalling them @@xue8888

Have you found anything you don't like in the EV6? I'm looking at one this weekend vs used German luxury sedans that I can tune to 500+ hp. I have a 500 hp Audi A6 but it's now older and needs more maintenance. 90% I'm getting another car this weekend. I went and sat in one and the interior seems super nice but a bit creaky. I go Kitchener to London for work when I go, which is 260-270 kms total. Is the range enough? Kia said like 335 km real world, in summer for the GT AWD.

​@@OviWanKeno9i had mine for 15k miles now, done a road trip from Seattle -> Montana and back, and honestly, nothing to complain here, expect for the seats. I think they could be comfier. I don't pay for the subscription until it gets cold, remote climate control is great for that, but its too expensive for all year. Range in the summer can go up to 310miles (~500km), in the winter, goes down to like 250/240 (380km) at around 10c and below. I'm a pretty chill driver, so if you have a lead foot I can see that range go down by like 10miles (20km) atleast. I have the Wind AWD which is rated for 270miles (430km) average. GT will be way lower of course.

@@OviWanKeno9i I have had an EV6 for 7 months now, and just did a 5000+km road trip in Australia. It has been an excellent car, my wife loves it. Don't expect the interior or tech presentation to be on the same level as a proper luxury car, because it isn't. Plastics can be hard in places and the Infotainment is a little dated (probably going to be replaced with a new system at refresh). The seats in the GT are sporty and hold you well, but I think miss the point of the car. It would have been better with the more comfortable GT-line seats. But there is a lot that is excellent as well. The way it rides, handles, and drives. The driver interface is much more intuitive than some other EVs. Range is decent, I did some 300+km legs in my roadtrip with temps just above freezing (though mine is a longer range RWD) so it may work for your commute (I would do more research and confirm before buying, though), but if you find yourself short, it charges very quickly. One thing to be aware of, because of the battery chemistry, it is recommended that you generally only charge the car to 80%. Then charge to 100% for long trips or once a month to balance the battery. This helps reduce battery degradation over time. If your long commute is frequent and you plan on keeping your new car long term, you may want to consider other options, or at least be well-informed on the issue.

@@OviWanKeno9i EV6 GT AWD probably wouldn't have enough range for you in winter. I like everything about mine.. except for the lack of wireless android auto.

Shout out Barbados

We struggle in the US as well. I have 1 350kW charger in a 40 mile radius. I get higher speeds at the 150kW chargers. I'm not rich though. I have a lowly Kia EV6 GT.

🥹 Glad to hear the rest of the world is moving forward with electrification

Norway is the capital of Evs… Portugal has the same issues as in CA and US

It's going to be slow for us. Especially given the fact the over 70% of us charge from home. We'll get there. I hope. @@theklr

I think most governments know the EV thing is going to fall off a cliff before 2030

25,000 write would be absolutely mad

I was gonna say this lol

Ya coming soon

Seriously I would swap 100hp for an extra 100 miles of range any day, everyday.

I have one. I had the same anxiety. It has NOT been an issue.

@@pp8010same, i think people who have range anxiety are people who don't have an EV. it's just not a problem once you get past "a few hours on the motorway". That being said, my experience is european, and i believe that charging networks are far more dense here, and everyone uses the same plug, so i can use tesla as well.

Maybe regular etron gt’s but I can’t find a rs one for that cheap

This cost 3 times the Q4 eTron on a lease

Got it! Ballpoint - Real Phonk Anthem

One reason to prefer it might be that lucid doesn’t seem to be doing so hot at the moment. At least we know that Audi will be around in 10 years.

The most common issue people have with Lucid is how they look. Not an attractive car at all. They have amazing range that's helped out by their awkward looking body though

@@itcangetbetter I think they look perfect for the role they are. It’s a luxury limo. Styling queues echo most other sedans in the segment.

@@TomYourmombadil Lucid doesn't make anything like a luxury limo. It's certainly a luxury price, but the interior and exterior don't reflect that. Again, incredible take though

@@itcangetbetter none of the luxury brands exude luxury on the exterior these days. Lucid looks more reserved and stately than the current 7 series, A8, definitely the current EQS. Yes, the interior isn’t as nice materials wise as the EQ cars, but it is certainly very luxurious. Like the grand touring is objectively luxury limo style. I really don’t get people saying it looks atrocious because from a graphic standpoint there literally is not enough there to look bad. Not saying they’re perfect, but it looks like what it’s supposed to be.
