CarTell take

We haven't driven the e-tron GT yet. On paper, confirm 800V-capable DC chargers on your regular routes, Chargefox and Evie 350 kW units can hit the peak in practice. The 22 kW AC charger option is worth specifying if you have 3-phase at home.

Why consider it

  • 800V architecture with 320 kW DC peak (10 to 80 in around 18 minutes), 97 kWh net battery delivering 609 km WLTP on the S, and the new RS Performance is Audi's most powerful production model ever at 680 kW.

What to know

  • RS e-tron GT performance at $309,083 plus on-roads overlaps Porsche Taycan Turbo S pricing.
  • 405 L boot and low rear seat are tight for taller adults on long trips.

Who it suits

Track-day fans wanting 680 kW boost with ceramic brakes, 800V early adopters wanting 320 kW DC charging and 18-minute top-ups, and Taycan cross-shoppers wanting the J1 platform with an Audi cabin.
