Got the car in 2-2016. About a dozen times, it went from electric to Hybrid with no warning and with plenty of charge available. Audi said I was going too fast. How fast does one go when one is going thru the driveway to the garage? Three times the radio just stopped playing. Had to stop the car and re start it to get the radio to work. Check Engine light went on twice for no reason (Yes, I did check the gas cap). I paid extra for an electric car and got a hybrid about 1% of the time.

We have had a 2016 etron for 2 years now on its way to the 3rd and final year of the lease! This car handles great! Fun to drive! Nothing like my 2010 Prius! but also does NOT get the mileage either! My wife drives around town the battery only last 10 miles or so since we live in the hills! she gets about 27MPG , I get about 45 so I don't know how they can come up with 86MPGE! Had to take it in twice for check engine, first time was Gas vapor canister and 2nd time was a bad Inverter . I was amazed when the dealer said they have them in stock! This is a part that suppose to last as long as the car! So far we have 18000 mile and tires are still OK.!

Bought a used 2016 and it still gets great mileage and the Sporty mode is fun. Love my first AUDI! Incorrect review, there are a few USB ports to charge my stuff.

For a hybrid it is the best on the market next to a Tesla. Luxury feel, fuel efficiency, responsiveness, and a good looking car.
