What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the Q6 Sportback e-tron keeps the Q6's comfort and fast charging, adding range and a sleeker shape for a small loss of headroom and boot space. The common criticisms are a high price and a cabin that feels cheaper than an Audi should; Auto Express and What Car? found rivals such as the Porsche Macan Electric more engaging to drive.
