Great Car, a little work

So cute and a nice ride. Only problem is the charging. It takes so long as a plug in and then you only get 16-20 miles. But I was dying for this car and it is so cool!

Snagged an Audi A3 Etron on Carvana. Limited supply and high demand. Love my sporty wagon. Very peppy. Drives smooth and similar to my hybrid Jetta. Plug-in option gives you a bonus 25 miles just on EV, Lots technical Bells and whistles even on the premium trim.

Good but needs more miles per charge

I thought I can live in the short distance in the charge but it is very lacking. My dash shows 24 miles per charge, I drive 3 miles to my destination and then 3 miles back, all while the needle is in the “Efficiency” range and I will be left with about 6 miles on the dash. I’ve owned this car for about 4 months and am already looking to trade it in. The rest of the car is fine. Enough room for two kids in the back, the sort back makes the trunk have enough space for any normal errand. The gasoline engine alone when you’ve ran out of electric juice leaves a lot on the table for anyone that expects any type of “fun”. The braking is absolutely horrendous. You either don’t get enough pressure or it is coming to a complete stop immediately. I took it to Audi and apparently it’s working as designed. The car looks great inside and out, but I would not purchase this vehicle if I knew yesterday what I knew today.
