previous gen e-tron GT had physical buttons, which was a welcome change when I went from my RS7 which was just touchscreens. Shame they've moved away from proper buttons on the steering wheel (excluding the boost button)
Thanks for the video. Insightful walkthrough. I have the current RS e-tron GT and so enjoy it. This new version is appealing. Only feature giving me pause are the haptic steering wheel buttons. Still, I’ll be visiting my Audi dealer when it arrives in the states. 👍🏾
That's so fast about the like taycan turbo gt version, the three electric motor is 1100hp is the absolute power house, that is kick ass, that Audi RS e-tron gt performance version from 2025, i like that but this car coming to electric power of the Roar, this thing it's wild
Raz…this is just wonderful….the best EV of them all. I would not choose that dreadful carbon pack which looks just lie the Fablon on my Grandmothers kitchen worktop in 1958! Properly optioned and in that colour…and with a huge depreciation price cut, that is some purchase. Tyres might do 5000 miles…but a car to savour in so many ways.😀😀😀😀🙂
Beautiful car until you get inside, dont like the big red button for boost and I really don't like that I think its carbon , I'm assuming that is an extra and you can go for the plain black option. I would find it a distraction
This is such a beautiful car. I couldn't help but notice the door jam trim and steering wheel buttons they have also changed the RS logo. it looks terrible! when you showed the infotainment the RS there is the signature look and it is just so much better shame.
I have a 2023 RS5 Vorsprung coupe & after I move into my new house which is due to complete in the next couple of months I'll be looking to upgrade. I love coupe style & Audi has now dropped all of their coupes in the standard ranges - what to buy?? I'm even considering an EV now....mommy, I'm scared!
I own the current e-tron GT, but once the lease is over im going to need to go for the RS Performance version if available in the UK. Otherwise i'll go the RS. I love the current base version, but always yearned for the RS.
Interior still looks a little 'cheap' and plasticy as compared to the more premium interior of the RS6/RS7. Hate how they use the dickie switch for a gearstick. And yes, ive driven the etron RS GT, as recently as yesterday at an Audi Performance Driving course. Amazing acceleration & stopping power. However, id still choose the RS6/RS7, especially new "Competition" versions for similar $$$
If Audi could fit a real ICE in this with just 400 HP it would be cheaper, more engaging, and it would actually sell! This-like the current version-will sit on lots
What ever happened to men who worked on their own cars with pride in knowing they could modify it and go show off their own creations ? Who wants to go to a car show and lift up a hood and look at a battery 😆😆😆
the badging is a disaster. why is the RS not connected directly to the red rhombus? it's ugly and looks like they purchased a plastic badge from Temu. I've also seen that they are putting the red rhombus on A models! Talk about destroying brand legacy!
Why oh why do they use forged carbon? It always looks like dirty plastic. Yet normal carbon on the roof? Mix n match. Should be able to option normal carbon on rest of it. Suspension trickery would freak our dog out when getting in and out! Never understood why they have never put a hatchback bootlid on this? I would be so tempted by one if it had that practicality, but they dont so I will stay with my Vorsprung RS5 sportback until they do!
It’s a shame that this model doesn’t have a dirty V8 in it.. Seems to be a lot of companies AMG’s etc are downsizing.. Taking away cylinders from a top sport model is like slapping God hard around the face
I guess it could be considered a poor mans taycan turbo s or turbo gt. Other then price its worse then the new taycan in 0-60 , quarter mile, from a roll, handling and braking, interior, and doesnt look near as good. The new taycan has more range and faster charging. New taycan has all new suspension tech thats insane and audi has to buy its patent from porsche. Their isnt one single thing the audi does better. The front is cool but that rear end got way too much going on.
This Audi got the same suspension as the Taycan. And most agree that it looks slightly better, especially considering Taycan got uglified a bit. As for as 0-60, quarter miles go, there really isn't much of a difference either. It's the same with price. In my country they both cost almost the same, with the Taycan only a 20k USD extra..
Never desired an EV until this. I think its beautiful. The forged carbon is a no. Other than that... Yes.
True. Just wait 1-2 years and buy a used one. Depreciation is/will be insane for this model.
The Germans are quickly stepping away from minimalistic design and back to knobs and buttons
That's Great ！
No not at all, this interieur is just couple years old.
@@timwin7155yeah that guy is confused

Only Audi
Audi beautified the Etron GT, while Porsche uglified the Taycan...this thing is too gorgeous
Right? Its so beautiful. Not vulgar, just great looks.
Hot Damn!! I’ve always been an Etron GT guy but always loved the Taycan, but now the new RS Etron GT is hands down the best looking EV in my eyes.
Bro why Audi is not offering "Sunroof" in this car__???
Just to add, the visuals on this video are great!
The chopped carbon looks like a kitchen counter inside, the rest of the car is excellent!
Agreed, not a fan of that, but otherwise excellent
Probably the best looking EV, R/S model.
Thank you
😎😎😎👍👍👍
They should’ve just given this thing a number moniker (similar to the E-Tron GT becoming Q8 E-Tron). This would work nicely as an “RS9 E-Tron”.
That iron-man intro is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I can only aspire to to be as dope as you 🫡🫡
Now that’s a stunning EV. I’d probably choose one over a Taycan now.
design looks sick but I still haven’t warmed up to the rear end :/
when you see it on the road from behind it looks awesome
Insane intro !!!
The intro always sick on this Channel 🔥

Might be the best looking car for sale. 925 PS - lease one for 1.6k a month and enjoy it!
How Much?😂....£1.6k just to have a flash car on the drive?
That sound is like space ship, is UFO
B E A U T I F U L !!
LOL I thought the sill was all muddy! 🤣
Would be nice to talk in HP also not just PS as many of us have no idea at all about " PS " . Great video as always

the camo carbon fiber looks like ass
it's like forged carbon
No mention of an avant version 😢
The Green metallic grows on ya ...
If this had a v8 or even hybrid v6 it would be perfect.
Fun fact : this was the original design for the C8 RS7
same car as the new taycan just a better looking face and other software to make it a bit slower than the porsche.
I you love it, lease it.
Great video mate. I'm curious... would you give up your Taycan Cross Turismo 4S for an RS etron GT?
SUPER AUDI RS E-TRON GT PERFORMANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s beautiful
waiting for the launch of this car soon
Beautiful car until you get inside, dont like the big red button for boost and I really don't like that I think its carbon , I'm assuming that is an extra and you can go for the plain black option. I would find it a distraction
Lovely looking car, and I'm tempted to upgrade my current one for it. But wouldn't opt for the camouflage carbon, looks like it's just dirty!
How much is this one? $140k?
Closer to $200,000 I’m afraid but in Europe it will crash in depreciation so for s €170/180.000 will be €100,000 in 6 months.
This is such a beautiful car. I couldn't help but notice the door jam trim and steering wheel buttons they have also changed the RS logo. it looks terrible! when you showed the infotainment the RS there is the signature look and it is just so much better shame.
Raz, your mic volume is too low on the videos away from your garage
Anybody noticed this car consumption? 99kwh/100km. Wthef?
*Love the front end*
I have a 2023 RS5 Vorsprung coupe & after I move into my new house which is due to complete in the next couple of months I'll be looking to upgrade. I love coupe style & Audi has now dropped all of their coupes in the standard ranges - what to buy??
I'm even considering an EV now....mommy, I'm scared!
Buy I use one guys. They depreciate close to 60k after the first year. So I wait.
liked the old Audi logo better too.
Love this car, but the front brakes cost over $20,000 US. Ouch.
Love it
Beauty
It looks lovely, but as said who's going to be brave enough to buy one given the shocking residuals.
I requested audi sports to install a v8 in my e tron gt.... 1 of 1 car...i called it v8 etron .... its 1250whp 1800nm torque....
the absolute best daily (and best EV)... just don't buy one.
Hate the forged carbon. Reminds me of a fake marble look on a kitchen worktop 😂
Design A1
The camouflage carbon is horrible - super tacky and very ugly!
Beautiful design for a v8 engine!
Sexiest car out right now.
I own the current e-tron GT, but once the lease is over im going to need to go for the RS Performance version if available in the UK. Otherwise i'll go the RS. I love the current base version, but always yearned for the RS.
Why hasn’t Matt Watson made a video on this yet.
When we going to see a RS6 Performance review!!!!!?????
If you want it, we’ll film it 🫡
Yes sir!!!!
🚀🚀🚀
wow
The real poor mans Taycan.
Interior still looks a little 'cheap' and plasticy as compared to the more premium interior of the RS6/RS7. Hate how they use the dickie switch for a gearstick. And yes, ive driven the etron RS GT, as recently as yesterday at an Audi Performance Driving course. Amazing acceleration & stopping power. However, id still choose the RS6/RS7, especially new "Competition" versions for similar $$$
Great car but that forged carbon is hideous
They also forgot to provide sunroof in this car, I don't know why__🤮
The carbon looks like a cheap kitchen counter.
so ten times better than you and your family members?
@@MaticTheProto You can't see. You are in the kitchen counter bin.
@@MaticTheProto Can we possibly keep family members out of youtube arguments please ... thank you 👍
@@Mike-1000 Nah, can't stand the crybabies under every single car review
@@MaticTheProto Haha, okay ...... no Mother's though
Etron means turd in French. How did Audi not know this before naming it?
Parce que le marché français est un "étron" dans les ventes globales d’Audi, ils s’en foutent royalement
If Audi could fit a real ICE in this with just 400 HP it would be cheaper, more engaging, and it would actually sell! This-like the current version-will sit on lots
Agree that old Audi logo was better. This looks cheap, especially on the steering wheel.
Think I'd prefer to get a Polestar 3 AND a Model 3 Performance for about the same money.
first !
Imagine if this car has a twin turbo V8…
Amazing car! Interior carbon is a disaster … looks like mould 😮
And it’s an EV so wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole.
What ever happened to men who worked on their own cars with pride in knowing they could modify it and go show off their own creations ? Who wants to go to a car show and lift up a hood and look at a battery 😆😆😆
i dont understand, why Audi still use this small screens inside.
Because it looks better than having a big ugly iPad plonked on there randomly.
Exactly that
Hard pass on that carbon fiber crap.
How people try to justify something that looks tastless
whoever tf okayed the camo and steering wheel need go back to hyundai or some shit
the badging is a disaster. why is the RS not connected directly to the red rhombus? it's ugly and looks like they purchased a plastic badge from Temu. I've also seen that they are putting the red rhombus on A models! Talk about destroying brand legacy!

wished it had a v8
Wow! I mean Wow! So much Carbon on that e Tron it’s was be really light ……Oh! It’s 2.6 tonne and still has a pathetic range.
It’s a shame that this model doesn’t have a dirty V8 in it..
Seems to be a lot of companies AMG’s etc are downsizing..
Taking away cylinders from a top sport model is like slapping God hard around the face
So basically it’s just worst new Taycan brother
The enterior is simply super ugly. No symmetry and that camouflage design just makes anybody puke
That intro is so bad
EVs are worthless used. Id never buy one.
No matter what electric car it is there useless
I guess it could be considered a poor mans taycan turbo s or turbo gt.

It's the same with price.
In my country they both cost almost the same, with the Taycan only a 20k USD extra..
Interior is awful
Who actually buy these overpriced evs?
Tesla Plaid is quicker 1.9 seconds 0-60 and half the price
Gli acquirenti sono: Rintron
Да это очень хорошо что Ауди сделали это электро авто да порви Ауди всех электромобили ❤
Nice looking car, shame you can not get with a real engine instead of a milk float engine. So will not be buying this ever.
