In front of my house where my garage is located is that slope. Its lenght is around 6 meters and the difference between top and the bottom high is somewhere around 1.7m so it is pretty steepy. Brand new tyres, X-ICE michelin. I made it without a slipping tyres. This winter, with same tyres but a little bit worn, it was having a struggeling moment to made it. Same test was done from the same position, in the middle. Tyres always matter, weight also, audi e-tron is nearly 400Kg heavier than my A6 or 300kg heavier than RS6 and it has two motors, no torque converter, direct connected to the rear and front axle, that's bennefit or unfair let's say.

    Having owned a 4wd with twin electric motors, electric is indeed very good at getting you moving and the weight helps. But the catch is stopping where the weight is against you. This video should have done a brake test going down the hill and applied halfway. I suspect the EV would have stopped somewhere in the Cafe.

      ​@@simonhenry7867 E tron doesn't engine brake much at all unless you hit the wheel paddles, it just gives a slight regen or slight acceleration by standard to coast at a fairly constant rate no matter if it's a slight decline or incline. As someone who lives in a place that gets LOTS of snow and shitty weather it feels very well thought out for winter conditions but at the end of the day a 2500kg SUV is still sketchy when you break traction particularly in a downhill on sleet.

      Not really surprised to be honest. The extra thousand pounds in weight help tremendously from a dead stop on packed snow. There is a reason why snow plows will add weight when plowing snow.
