I don’t how isolated from EV land you have to be to get in a 55 etron and expect it to be underpowered biggrin
Not at all isolated. For a big suv (the biggest ev suv after the MX?) it’s laugh out loud quick.

Looking on AT I was surprised to see etron prices as low as they are. My 2019 55 with P11d value of £76k could be bought for low 40's with hardly any miles. Makes me glad my company is only paying £23k to lease it for 3 years / 45k miles.

Is it sad that I enjoy hypermiling?

I'm considering an e-tron at the moment as a private purchase, probably a 2019 one. There seems to be lots of stock (150+) on Audi site which must be pushing down the prices, together with competition from the ID.4 platform cars on range. Anyone been watching the market - have they gone up with COVID pricing? I'm guessing a lot have just come off 2 year lease when they launched Q1/Q2 2019.

Is this a horrible idea to spend £50k on one of these? Given with spec they were £80k+ 2 years ago it seems good value against other premium EV SUVs. The only fair comparison is the Model X and the value on those has gone crazy, I guess with limited supply. Even though the range is not brilliant the super solid charging curve I think makes this still one of the best long range EVs, especially as now there are a lot more 150kw+ chargers.
