First ever 'brand new' car with 7 miles on the clock, straight from the factory! I've moved from a 2018 SQ5 TFSI
Initial review so far:
First ever 'brand new' car with 7 miles on the clock, straight from the factory! I've moved from a 2018 SQ5 TFSI
Initial review so far:
- Comfort 10/10 - By far the most comfortable car I've ever experienced to drive. The air suspension is something else and despite only being the normal leather seats, they're somehow more comfortable than the SQ5.
- Handling 8/10 - Subjective 8/10 but of course I've come from a background of the sports end of the scale in cars so it does feel somewhat like a lumber beast but not as bad as I thought it would. Not much difference again from the SQ5.
- Speed 9/10 - Somehow, it feels just as fast as the SQ5. It does have more power on paper but of course it weights an awful lot more so I wasn't expecting the same level of speed but I guess the combination of electric motor + 6cyl lump does a good job! More than enough speed for a car this size.
- In-car Tech 9/10 - Amazing tech on board and it feels like you're in a freaking space ship. The haptic feedback on the screens is superb. Minus 1 point for having one physical knob (Volume). Perhaps it'll get easier over time but trying to navigate the MMI whilst driving is dangerous. I knew this going in but hopefully it'll be a case of muscle memory.
- EV Mode 6/10 - One of the primary drivers for this particular model was the EV only mode. Most of our travel at the moment is very local (Shops, childcare etc) which are all within a 10-15 mile radius. The EV range is only around 25-30 miles and so far we've managed a few trips on EV mode which will save us a whole heap of money in the long run. Using combined mode we managed 78mpg on a short 20 minute run.
