Q6 E-Tron. Anyone Considering One?

I’ve gone with one of these for the family wagon. Edition 1 with pan roof.

Felt that the mix of range, interior and size were better than anything else going.

Will test drive one when available which should be in time to cancel if it’s terrible, hoping Macan reviews transfer enough for that not to be the case!

Test drove the EQB which I found terrible to drive, felt sloppy and heavy.

IX range was poor for the 40, really liked the interior and drive. Maybe controversial but I liked the looks in black with the big wheels. Got pricey as needed options for me.

Q4 was ok but reminded me a bit of ugly Tesla blobbyness and didn’t have proper one pedal driving.

Q8 etron was really nice and felt it looked the best but range, lack of one pedal and price for an old platform didn’t make sense.

Your assement of the competition is pretty similar to mine. The only real contender for me was the Macan EV. In the end the much higher level of specification in the Q6 swung it for me. The car will mostly be used for short trips locally and the occasional 5 hour motorway journey down South. Much as I like Porsche, having owned several in the past, I think the Q6 will be a better ownership proposition over the 4 years that we plan to keep it.

I had my spec confirmed by the dealer this week, and the delivery date has been brought forward to the end of August.

Ordered dealer saying 13 to 16 weeks from factory plus 4 shipping.So looking at Nov ( very puzzled )

This is from the email that I received from Audi corporate sales. I have seen posts in the EV forum of much longer lead times being quoted.

Thank you

It seems the road test review embargo has lifted, as a lot of reviews for both the Q6 and SQ6 have landed on YouTube today. The reviews so far seem very positive. Non on UK roads so far though.
