What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the updated e-tron GT is hugely fast yet refined and comfortable, handling with real poise, and that the bigger battery and faster charging make it a genuine grand tourer. The common criticisms are the high price, limited rear space and access, and an interior that feels less special than a Porsche Taycan's; Auto Express found its tech behind the class standard.
