What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the Q6 e-tron is quiet, roomy and comfortable, especially on air suspension, with a competitive range and fast charging. The common criticisms are a high price, interior quality that falls short of older Audis and of the price, and a brittle ride on standard or sports suspension; Parkers also recorded poor efficiency and software glitches.
