Audi RS E-Tron GT Performance: the villain that just gets better

Have you ever gotten into a vehicle and felt like you were in the future? I'm not just talking about aesthetic details or technological gadgets. I'm talking about the pure, unlimited power you can feel with every pedal stroke. That's exactly it Audi RS E-Tron GT Performance – an electric beast that combines Audi's prestige and innovation.

The first thing you notice about Audi RS E-Tron GT, is his astonishing speed. With two electric motors that together produce up to 475 kW (646 hp) of power in “boost” mode and 830 Nm of torque, this four-wheel drive machine accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds. Once you feel that boost, you'll find it hard to go back to anything else. It's like being catapulted into another dimension where everyday driving is a thing of the past.

The RS E-Tron GT was hailed as one of the most beautiful cars upon its launch, so it's no surprise that Audi didn't want to change too much when it came to design. However, they have added some subtle improvements that emphasize its elegance and sportiness.

The RS E-Tron GT boasts a powerful battery with a capacity of 93 kWh, which enables a range of up to 488 kilometers on a single charge. Charging is fast and efficient: you can charge up to 80 % batteries in just 23 minutes using the 270 kW DC fast charger. And since the car has two charging options – on the driver's side for DC charging and on the passenger side for AC charging – use is even more comfortable.

But it's not just speed. The RS E-Tron GT is designed for the ultimate driving experience. With four-wheel steering and air suspension, the car offers excellent handling and stability at high speeds. Imagine driving through winding roads where the rear wheels assist in steering so you can negotiate corners with speed and confidence. And even though it's an electric vehicle, you can choose the car's sound profile to satisfy all your senses, from a low hum to a deep roar.

But to be honest, not everything is perfect. RS E-Tron GT it shares a platform with the Porsche Taycan, which means they share many of the best parts. However, the RS E-Tron GT does not reach the same range as the Tesla Model S, which can travel up to 600 kilometers on a single charge. This is one of the key criticisms, as for some buyers range will be an important factor when choosing an electric vehicle.

Inside the RS E-Tron GT, you feel like you're in the cockpit of a spaceship. The seats are heavily padded and offer superior support, and the air suspension keeps the ride smooth and comfortable even on longer journeys. The cabin is quiet, without disturbing noise, which contributes to the feeling of prestige. And then there's the audio system – a 710-watt Bang & Olufsen 3D Surround Sound system with 16 speakers that provides a superior sound experience. Play your favorite song and feel the sound envelop you like the softest blanket.

The interior, however, is not entirely without criticism. The rear seats offer limited headroom, which may reduce comfort for taller passengers. Also, luggage space is quite limited for a vehicle of this size, which can affect practicality in everyday use.

Price for Audi RS E-Tron GT starts at around EUR 147,500. This includes extensive standard equipment such as 21-inch wheels and a choice of nine colors at no extra cost. For those who want even more, there are optional packages such as the carbon and black exterior package for €15,000, the Sensory package for €8,400 and carbon brakes for an additional €12,500. True, this is not a cheap toy, but it justifies every penny with incredible performance and luxury.

For those who think it is 150,000 EUR exorbitant price for such a beast, think again. In today's world, where technology is advancing rapidly, this amount for a high-end electric car is completely understandable. Granted, it might be worth half that price in five years, while gasoline cars hold their value better. But this is the price we pay for the future of mobility.

The Audi RS E-Tron GT is more than just a car. It is the future, packaged in an elegant design and equipped with state-of-the-art technology. If you are looking for a vehicle that combines the future of mobility with prestige and performance, the RS E-Tron GT is definitely the right choice.
