Audi has come a long way with its EVs since its first one, the under-whelming E-tron SUV of 2018. That car's heavy design hobbled the subsequent Q8 e-tron. The e-tron GT quattro Gran Turismo-style model that followed it was a bit niche and the smaller Q4-e-tron has sold well, but isn't quite premium enough. With this Q6 e-tron though, Audi's got it just about right.
Familiar looks disguise a PPE platform 800V engineering revolution here; this really is a fresh stage of EV development for the brand. Which you get a better feel for in the luxuriously redesigned cabin. True, in the Porsche Macan Electric, you can get a slightly more dynamic-feeling version of this same basic design. But if you don't feel an upper mid-sized EV crossover like this really needs to be that sporty, then this Q6 e-tron might be for you.
It's not particularly arresting to look at and could be better value in terms of what you get for the money. But it's slightly cheaper than its most obvious premium-badged German rivals and offers the kind of polished driving experience we've come to expect from the brand. For the future, this Q6 will need longer range and sharper styling, but otherwise all the fundamental things you really need in an upper mid-sized premium electric SUV are here. At last in an e-tron-badged Audi.
