2022 Audi RS e-tron GT Review: The Wall of Sound
At the time of writing, there are some 275 vehicle models on the market. Each year, some depart, and some debut. Over the next few years, with the emergence of new electric models from both legacy automakers and start-up companies, that number will surely grow and undoubtedly pass the 300 mark.So how does one stand out? The ingredients may change, but the recipe is the same. Eye-catching design, performance, price and reliability are what consumers are looking for.
And what does that change, exactly? Nothing, and everything at the same time. These days, if you’re into performance cars, you have to throw out some parameters and establish new ones. And also accept and embrace a completely different reality.It’s funny, the designers who produce the most breathtaking models are often the humblest. That said, they usually have the refreshing honesty to acknowledge their masterpieces as such.
In my view, the cocoon of this e-tron is just right. You're not overwhelmed when you see the dashboard, but you recognize the quality of the work done. And the seductive elements are numerous. I’m thinking of the materials used, the contrast they offer, the uncluttered centre console with an electronic shifter , the screens that keep you informed of the model's every heartbeat, whether it's at a standstill or in full acceleration.
Comparisons between the two models are inevitable, and since the goal here is not cannibalization, each vehicle has its different strengths and weaknesses. The Porsche leans towards sportiness, while comfort is th dominant theme in the Audi, not to mention that the interior of the e-tron is more interesting than the Taycan's. On the other hand, the prestige is higher with Porsche... but don't go telling that to an Audi representative, who will bring you strong arguments for the contrary.
With a beast offered at $179,900 in base configuration and $194,890 in this case with the options selected, it's not even a question; you pay cash or you take on the monthly payments of $3392.42, with a 0 cash offer and a 4.98-percent rate.
