How's your new phone Matt?
It's good but not as good as BMW's iDrive
Unlike e-tron quattro = Motorsport proven, iDrive = XDrive = Unproven in Motorsport
this is good
What's this joke gotta do with the audi huh??
JU gave you a dislike your welcome
@@amoddedblueteslap100d7 oh no! Anyway…
Love the humour that goes into these reviews
Matt, that edit at 1:07 is not as good as BMW's iDrive system
does not support android...lol
Acually bmw's digital dash is the worst in the industry. It doesnt have a descrete GPU so it can't show nothing but simple vector graphics and fonts. Unlike audi who is using nVidia gpu since 2010.
Bmw system is shit
And Audi is a glorified VW
@@crossocean5663 yeah with triple price lol
Matt whenever he touches *any* plastics in *any* car:
"Oh my God that's the cheapest bit of plastic I've ever seen."
@A real bisexual petrol-head Its more to the fact that if you're playing upwards of £70,000 you don't expect and hard plastic
@A real bisexual petrol-head No its because soft touch materials don't rattle and wear out like plastics do
@A real bisexual petrol-head Like I said when you're going through a very bumpy road hard plastics tend to rattle and are pretty annoying wherever they are. Its not about being soft to the touch per say, its more about how a passenger can feel comfortable in a cabin by reducing the noise and annoying tendencies of things rattling along when you're driving. Again its upto each. If you're paying what you think is high and see different cars removing hard plastics but not this one, you feel that they have invested less on basic things as compared to more on the technological aspect
A real bisexual petrol-head BMW manages to sell cars like the three series without plastic as nasty as the one in this e tron. The cheap bits are mostly only around the rear AC vents.
@@dhananjayvenkatesh3361 I don't think they'll rattle and wear out if it's a part you never touch in an electric car
Do tesla x vs audi etron vs jaguar i pace vs Mercedes eqc in a drag race
Why? That's irrelevant for normal use. It's only relevant if you want to brag at the bar, and we know what people like that are called....get a race car and go racing if that's your thing.
@@Audidude yep true
@@Audidude it's highly relevant... you save hundreds of dollars per year from not having to buy tickets to the amusement park. ;-) Tesla acceleration ftw
“Audidude”, I see you feel the e-tron won’t succeed and is why you’re a little butthurt. This channel is full of drag races and yes there is a point in doing it, it’s a measure of seeing how strong the motors can kick in to give that instant torque.
@@Audidude You are saying that because you know that the etron Is going to loose 🤣🤣🤣
Surprising what does and doesn't come standard on this car, like soft close doors as standard but keyless go is extra
I have the the launch edition of Etron Quattro - it doesn’t have soft close doors.
Well its Audi... ridiculous extra Option lists
I’m guessing keyless go is standard but keyless entry is the option. Otherwise they would have to produce too many parts differently. Also most newer cars have keyless as standard and keyless entry as an option (inc most Audi’s).
The verdict is correct, this is the most luxurious electric vehicle available at the moment however you do feel a bit shortchanged with some of the things you get. I have the launch edition which is the top end version (£80k+) that comes standard with the camera mirrors, panoramic sunroof, 360° cameras but even that doesn’t have soft close doors or rear heated seats or even a 4 zone climate control which is a bit crap. Also the audio system is just adequate in terms of quality of sound. That being said on a daily basis, it’s a good cabin to be in. If you are looking for the most efficient electric vehicle -Tesla is still ahead though it feels like a school bus when you’re sitting in the model x- they really need to work on the fit and finish.
@@vismaysharma4351 definitely not the most Luxurious when you consider the Tesla Model X is still being produced.
Normal person: The cars very comfortable.
Mat: It’s like sitting on a bench
😂😂
Mat, for Volkswagen Audi group vehicles in order to make the passenger side mirror go down automatically you have to leave the switch for adjusting the mirror on ‘L’ or ‘R’. R for left-handside vehicles and vice versa.
4:27 , Matt flexing his gains! 💪 I like it
Mahad Sean in true Abercrombie fashion 😍
Do a comparison of all those EV SUVs listed at beginning.
GAV321 probably they won’t, the Model X Max Range 2019 is quicker, faster, has more range, charged faster and has more features than any of the other cars, while being by far the largest (and most practical) of them. Probably wouldn’t look to good for carwow, who seem to love Jaguar a little too much.
@@LarsRR
Even better, the Model S LR.
It's bigger internally than the Jag or Audi and has even better range for less money.
Roger Starkey people always argue that it’s not an SUV so doesn’t count. I agree with your point however.
@@LarsRR Sold our model x for the e-tron earlier this year. Range and acceleration isn't everything you know. The E-tron is overall a better "car", both more practical, comfortable and better handling. -speaking from personal experience.
Audi etron: *has 3 screens*
And STILL we aren't allowed to look at our Mobile phone screen
You should be the presenter at BBC Top Gear 👍🏾👍🏾
Is it me or is Matt gaining more muscle every review? 😂

You mean MATtel :p
@@Danne6und8zig you don't get the joke do you
@@charliebrice5569 yeah I don't think he did
I dont get the joke
@@FriendlyNeighbourhoodSpidey was that a joke , cause your account is Spider-Man
Have you guys got the 2020 CLA Coupe review coming soon? I have 1 on order and you always learn more about the cars in these reviews that you never would normally find out.
Yeah I didn’t know that on my m4 you can fold rear seats until I watched and old review carwow did
@@zainmunir4324 I love the m4, what colour is yours?
Can you charge from both sides at the same time?
Nope
Yeah
No. It says so in the description when you go to this option on the audi configuration website. Also the dual charge ports are an option. You only get one as standard.
“E-tron been charged for an hour by two wires without even knowing, watch full ...”
no and to prevent people trying you can only have one open at a time
Matt 'Click At The Top Right Banner' Waston
Anyone else happy that geek mode is gone?
Nope!
Yes👍
Nope
Yes
BLACKFIRE _X yes
Hi Matt will you give a review on the new Merc GLC?? Thanks!
When I went to Germany I rented an Audi A8, we drove all over Germany and the navigation I think is one of the best,
Was waiting for this review ..thankyou mat watson and carwow team..u guys r te best...
Very lovely car, but I feel like features such as electric operated steering wheel should be standard.
For the one time you adjust the steering wheel.
I always thought I’ve wanted an electric steering whee but you literally only adjust it once
@@leeeinfield that's true 😂
@@leeeinfield unless if different people will be using the car.
@@embakubmotoring And have the time to sit for ten seconds every time they get in the car whilst the wheel whirs into position?! Same with electric seats - it's like they think we've got all the time in the world.
11:43 i also like that the ambient light changes to red so that other people see you 😯
Just love how he throws/slam's things!!
All I can say is, e-tron is the benchmark car in terms of ride quality! And I am speaking about a very very large range of competitors.
One of the most awaited videos so far 😍
Lankaweda?
@@manujaalwis5853 ow bn 👍

Been waiting for this carwow review for months!
"This is the new Audi etron" love it
“A sort of frunk, or froot!” - Mat Watson, 2019 🤣🤣🤣. I agree with you Mat. Well said 💯
Thats been around for ages..
I commented that it should be Froot on the McLaren 720s video... I think Matt got the idea from my comment "I think"... Cuz Carwow hearted the comment and said it in the Tesla Model 3 video...
Iv just ordered one of these. Seems like a really good ideal family car. Your review really helped with the decision. Thanks.
How do you like it? Are you happy with it? Curious to hear.
Want a comparison with model x❤️
3:12 - " seperate u from ur cash" LOL
0:01 Correction according to the French dictionary: 'this is the new Audi Turd'
imagine its mid 2019 and youre so lame that you still make that "joke" because you think youre funny and original.. imagine being you.. yikes
To be honest with you guys ( CARWOW ) channel , is one of the best car reviewer channels .. who agrees with me ?
Finally!!! 😭😭😭 I've been waiting for this review!
Ive been waiting for some new electric car reviews, love the funny entertaining and informational videos, Love you mat, car wow and cars in general 😂❤️👍
Huge fan of Carwow and how you approach Automotive Journalism. But you guys should really repair that zip on the suitcase. It's driving me nuts since quite a few episodes. #mildocd Keep up the good work!! :)
sorry, but the e-Tron is not build up from the ground as an electric car, it's just a hardly recognizable Q5, that's the reason for it's unbelievable high weight,
the e-tron 4 door coupe is the first real electric car, based on the Porsche electric platform as you know ;-)
Amazing job done by Mat!
Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this video??? So hyped that it’s here. Cheers.
Cannot wait for the e-tron GT review
Looking forward to seeing it in the next Marvel movie
please review montero sport 2019 sir..please
Try putting the wing mirror adjustment knob in the position to adjust the near side mirror when selecting reverse. If it works like my Q7 then the left mirror will dip down to view the kerb. This design then gives you a choice if you want this feature or not e.g. when reversing down a narrow street I want to use the mirrors in their normal position...
Excellent test, didn't know about the unsafe rear window design.
Now it is time for tesla model X vs jag i-pace vs e tron vs Mercedes
Classic Mat Watson. They had some spare plastic so they just had to stick it on
Great review Matt as always.
Great camera work, as always! And while it's more about the camera person than the camera, I'm wondering what cameras and lenses do you use?
Great review as usual !
PS: would be great to display the numbers with SI units for the none-imperial system people (basically everyone ;) )
Doug DeMuro does that for Canadian viewers.
Skøut and every other person on the earth too... Matt shall listen to daddy Doug
@@Sayua-chan *for the 95% of the world.
Or the plain lazy?
@@rogerstarkey5390 yes sure we can convert the units, that's peace of cake but on fly during the video... not so practical.
Just like when i drive in the UK, then i put the navigation in in meter because i prefer to focus on the traffic than converting units.
*the air intake also serves another purpose, it produces a dinosaur like sound to alert pedestrians because its too quiet.*
New camera you guys are using ? The video is legit !!
Love your reviews Mat!
12:34 So it has two charging ports. Someone please plug them both in at the same time 🙏🏾. It’s in the interest of science.
I've tried it and got an error message stating I should remove one of the cables to continue charging!
@@CheddarB0b Well, that's a rip. What's the point of having 2 when you can't use them at the same time?
RainMirron convenience
@@harrx0 I suppose. What would be super convenient is a charge time cut in half. I think it was an opportunity wasted.
RainMirron yeah sounds good but I think that would degrade the battery a lot
Could u please Review new Jaguar Xe 2020.....
No lol
Aleksandar Zivkovic Very Funny...
I want to see this!
I saw one recently, in my opinion it's really taking the competition to Merc/BMW, much better than the old XE!
Will Baker I went to jag’s showroom and saw new jag. It was looking really aggressive and this month I might order it :)
Another fine review Matt, keep going!
I think you can dip the mirror automatically. If you have power folding mirrors then you have the mirror dip in reverse. Set the parking brake, lower the mirror to what you want, release parking break, put in drive, then go forward. It should work
greatest review of this on RUclips nobody gets in to this detail yet thanks
Doug DeMuro does
I would like him if he didn't have an accent :)
hudaifa hayder absolutely right
Matt definitely got bollocked for throwing load covers.
Finally the review I was waiting for!
Has anyone noticed he says the pop-up banner for the website but its never actually there?
Someone's been hitting the gym. Good lad proper gains.
Mat can you review the new glc please!!!
I like these reviews; well balanced (negative/positive & serious&humor). Keeps the attention, I am subscribing now 😎. Keep on the good work!
I like how the suitcase kept outside comes back in again at 7:47
AUDI E-TRON = LOVE IT
Did you know that “étron” means turd in French! Well done Audi, great research!!
Lol
Who cares about France?
I don't know what étron mean and I am french
the name is actually based on the word Electron. - E-Tron.
I don't know where he learnt his french.. c'est quoi étron ???
Eccellent review but I think that you should do more of that front view. From the inside out it gives a little bit more of a look of what is like to drive the car.
Matt, if you put the mirror adjuster to the nearside mirror and it will automatically dip in reverse. I spent ages in mine to get it to work
Is that not the car Iron Man invented?
Matts got some complaints about broken load covers lol
Can you use both charging ports at the same time to double your charging speed?
For fan speed etc. you can slide the +/- to the right and manually control it when you’re driving
Have you heard about the e-tron recall in June where it was recalled due to risk of fire?
better safe then sorry. even with this fault it would have been safer than an ICE
@@jojodroid31 *Possibly safer. No one knows because we don't know where the fault was or if it affects the fire safety and contingency systems.
@@jojodroid31 chants classic EV zealot mantra without actual facts.....
yes in the United States, but they recall everything all the time.
@@jojodroid31 batteries are a step away from bombs yuh twat 😂😂😂
Easily the better looking suv out of all of its rivals!
Yeah, the Tesla Model X is fucking ugly and it looks like a blob, but I would rather have the Mercedes EQC because it's a Mercedes and the interior looks better. I don't really like electric cars but if I had too choose one it would be the Merc.
its ok, audi grills are too big, especially for an EV.
@@owengee7415 I'm ok with big grills on recent Audis but the interior with two touchreens is so stupid. They should bring back traditional knobs for controlling the AC and infotainment (the infotainment screen having a touchscreen option also). They removed the MMI knob on the A4 facelift 🙃
The jag looks really nice in real life.
I tested one recently and it drove like a super fast milk float. Really dissapointing.😔
2:18 😂🤣👌🏻 that was too funny
could you do a dragrace between all vw suv's and a review of the vw t-cross?
The model x starts from 83k pounds in the UK and it is better in every way and has most of the options of the e-tron as standard and autopilot included too, so for me the model x is way better
I assume the windows in the back don't come down fully so children aren't able to stick their hands out the window.
Really funny sound effects 2:18. Good review
I'll take the Model X which has more seats, more storage, is much faster, has a fast charging network, is more efficient and offers more range.
DoubleClutchOnline worse quality, cheaper interior ( except the screen ), bad customer support*
thicc that's old news, the quality of the e-from is much closer to the tesla model x than you think.
@@thicc7972 Anyone who thinks that the Model X has a "cheap" interior doesn't understand minimal design. More buttons, candy colored LED lighting and shiny surfaces don't = quality. New Audis have about a million cut lines and textures with GM grade plastics in some areas. I have a last-generation Audi that is much better than the newer ones. The Model X is like a Scandinavian lounge, while the e-Tron interior is like a New Jersey strip club. Tesla's service is excellent... if you can get someone on the phone. I will say, that getting someone on the phone is more infuriating than dealing with the cable company.
Tesla Model X 90D (orP90D) vs Jaguar I-Pace vs Audi E-Tron DRAG RACE, ROLLING RACE AND BRAKE TEST
There's no 90 d and hasn't been for years. The base is 'long range' and the 'performance'
@@supaahflyy You are talking about the Tesla Model 3, I was talking about the Model X
@@datboe6560 No all Teslas come only in standard range, long range and long range performance now. They got rid of the numbering system.
petenice75 No bro, you’re wrong
@@datboe6560 look at the configurator lmao:www.tesla.com/en_GB/modelx/design#battery
Matt, the 12V outlet in the trunk is probably for a powered cool box...
PLEASE review the Opel Grandland X Hybrid 4
There’s an option for Camara mirros
A real bisexual petrol-head thing is it’s supposed to cool and be more aerodynamic
@A real bisexual petrol-head any particular reason for you? For me, The software engineer in me knows the software has been QA tested to death, but it also knows no software is ever perfect, and the car goes through a lot of unexpected environments. The moment one of those mirrors de syncs or the CPU buffers for a split second, that's when accidents happen. That might not happen in a new car, but an electronic mirror 200 000 miles down the road seems like a death trap.
I must say that I'm really impressed by the turd I mean... E-Tron.
The interior looks nice, there is rooms of space and things are just well thought-out.
I was a bit bored with Audi's line up the last couple of years but his seems very promising.
So do the doors have a mechanical lock as a backup or are the electronic switches that are destined to fail the week after the lease ends going to lock you in the car?
Mat have quite a big guns! Tossing load covers around seems to help!
I can't believe you pay so much and yet keyless entry and go is optional! My 2004 Nissan Micra had it as standard equipment!
Lol your Nissan looks crap and not as high tech
@Sky Nation
That’s the point, dumbass.
Keyless go is standard. Only keyless entry is an option. Still shouldn't be, but yeah..
@@ariqnabil8063 of you read my comment it's past tense. I don't own a Micra now.
@@CheddarB0b I have the new DS3 Crossback La Premiere which has proximity entry and door handle deployment. But all models have keyless start, but keyless entry is only on the top spec like mine.
If you're gonna put keyless start in a car, you may as well add keyless entry too.
Hey mat or carwow, my dream job is to become a journalist (hopefully car journalist!) do you have any tips? Im in the 8th grade (IB) and am a straight A student. Thanks!
Mclaren F1 get a life
@@LenniL-ob4ll i did lol check my video out
Yes man try your hardest to get to where u wanna be I also love cars and want to be a car journalist in my spare time 😁👍
If not mistaken I saw a video add with the car wireless charging in a car park. It has just parked on the top of the charger.
That Bizeps :O
did he jus talk about the infotainment system being better on the merc, someone's been reading the comments oor is it coz he's got the g. wagon now
oh wait, there is no electric bmw SUV
@Mihai thats what i said
@Mihai did you watch his previous review?.. he got a g63, long term contract thing..you clearly didnt get the joke so jus move on
Did you forget about the i3
@Mihai nah fam, you just don't get it
@Mihai "the joke" was he could be being sponsored by merc since he was given the g wagon nd thus complimenting them indirectly like talking about their eqc infotainment being better..
Me: Hey Matt how’s the GF?
Matt: She’s good but not as good as BMW’s Idrive
I like how he’s just throwing things around, slamming the pockets shut, etc. A proper test for a family SUV.
Matt's jacked look at those biceps 🤣🤣
Do people really believe that by buying a large 70k car - electric or not - they are doing something good for the environment?
If the powers of be wants everyone to go electric, then I ask, where are they going to extract all of the precious metals, needed for the batteries? The damage done to the environment will be huge.
@@nothingmuch.3014 not as harmful as gasoline and lithium mines are actually not all that bad. Its the cobalt that is bad but luckily tesla who actually take this seriously are constantly working to decrease the amount of cobalt their batteries take. In the 2013 model S 15% of the batteries material was cobalt, in the model 3 it is just 3% and the new cell technology they aquired through buying maxwell technologies is said to of eliminated the need for cobalt completely so things are looking good. Audi on the other hand is still at 15%, pathetic.
Looking for cheapest plastic and worst quality go for Model X
Where is the cameras in the place of the side mirrors?
Can you charge both side at the same time to get more energy go into battery pack?
I luv Audi Reviews.Anything to do with Audi 🤩
