Safety
The Audi e-tron scores high in terms of safety features. All trims come with seven airbags, including front and side airbags for backseat passengers. Brake assist is standard, as are child-safety locks and daytime running lights. More advanced features include:
- Lane departure warning – to alert you when you're veering out of your lane
- Lane-keeping assist – to prevent the SUV from veering into another lane
- Blindspot monitoring – to keep you informed of cars approaching from neighbouring lanes
Safety packages are available on all trims.
Interior
Expect five spacious and comfortable leather seats in the Audi e-tron. Little details add to the interior's luxurious finish, such as the cockpit-style control centre and leather-wrapped steering wheel. All seats are ventilated and temperature controlled. A heads-up display is also available, which allows you to view some of your gauges on the windshield. True to its luxury brand, the Audi e-tron offers climate control for four sections of the SUV and keyless entry and engine start.
Technology
The Audi e-tron interior is loaded with high-tech features designed to entertain, navigate and provide a comfortable atmosphere. The brand's smartphone app, myAudi, is full of innovative functions that you can control remotely, such as setting the interior temperature and planning your trip. No matter what trim line you look at, you can expect a wide range of impressive technical specs, such as:
- Wi-Fi Hotspot
- Smartphone integration and wireless connectivity
- Dual touchscreen navigation and infotainment system
Space
The Audi e-tron has an impressive amount of floor space thanks to its underfloor battery pack. Getting in and out of the front and back seats is a breeze thanks to its wide doors. With 29 cubic feet of cargo space and up to 57 cubic feet with the seats folded down, there's a ton of room for those long-distance road trips. Both the front and backseat provide about 40 inches of legroom, making it a comfortable ride for passengers of all sizes.
Comfort
The Audi e-tron is a smooth, quiet and comfortable ride. Its two electric motors give you the power you need to drive up steep terrain. All-wheel drive comes standard on all models, giving the driver more control over slippery or difficult roads. The vehicle's adequate suspension and sizeable tires make for easy handling, and going over little bumps and potholes is hardly noticeable. While similar to the Audi Q8 in terms of design, the drive is noticeably different thanks to the Audi e-tron's all-electric system.
