Audi E-tron GT

The cabin of the 2024 Audi e-tron GT is the most opulent in its class. The leather interior can be had in different colour options. There's also a leather-free package that uses recycled materials. The entire dashboard surface seems to be vacuum-packed around the 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment unit and the 12.0-inch Audi Virtual Cockpit for the instrument panel. The standard GT model can be fitted with a nice wood trim. The touchscreen unit is connected to a Bang & Olufsen premium sound system. The display on both units is crisp, and the icons are easy to operate. The entire cabin gets soft-touch materials and there's almost a total absence of hard plastics. Unlike the Q8, A8, and A6, the 2024 Audi e-tron GT doesn't get a touchscreen for climate control. The physical buttons allow easier operation. There's space for cargo behind the back seats as well as under the front hood since there's no engine.

The 2024 Audi e-tron GT is the company's first all-electric sedan. The car shares its platform with Porsche Taycan. Long, low, and wide, the 2024 Audi e-tron GT looks stunning. The homogenous flow from the front to the back makes the car look very attractive. The Tactical Green colour scheme particularly looks great on the car. The car gets new matrix headlights. They use a chip of one million micromirrors to precisely steer the illumination. The front is dominated by the traditional Audi grille, which is now merely a blacked-out panel. The car runs on massive 20-inch alloy wheels that look sleek. Both sides get charging ports. The doors are big and wide. The highlight of the 2024 Audi e-tron GT is, of course, the oversized rear-end. The taillights are like a figurehead and are connected by a light bar. The roofline slopes down sharply at the back to forge a fastback-style appearance.

The cabin of the 2024 Audi e-tron GT is the most comfortable among all its competitors. Tall drivers will have no problem on the front seats. The environment is deliberately snug and emphasises a coupe-like feel. The space on the back seat is much better than expected. The headroom is a bit tight but three occupants can fit just fine. The room is particularly good because the big scallops have been taken out from the backs of the front seats. All sets get excellent under-thigh and lumbar support. The air suspension makes the ride comfortable even over the worst urban pockmarks. The suspension also cures the battery-related stiffness, a problem that's common in most electric cars. 

The 2024 Audi e-tron GT is equipped with two permanent magnetic motors that produce a combined output of 667 PS/830 Nm. The motors are powered by an 85.0kWh liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery pack. For a big car with small windows, the Audi e-tron is surprisingly easy to drive on city roads. The steering wheel is light, and handling is nimble. On highways, the car comes across as a great cruiser. There's a rumble, though, because of the low-profile tires and the big wheels. 

The 2024 Audi e-tron GT is packed with driver-assist features. In addition to the standard safety equipment, it gets a radar control system, a high-definition surround-view camera, parking sensors, and Audi's live internet service that feeds real-time traffic data, forward-collision warning, and automated emergency braking.

The 2024 Audi e-tron GT is the most expensive car in its segment. It is still early days for electric cars, and investing in such a pricey car may not be worthwhile. But those with deep pockets who are looking for a full premium travelling experience in an opulent cabin will find the 2024 Audi e-tron GT a great option.
