The full range of e-tron models consists of three e-tron 55 derivatives, the e-tron 55 Sportback, e-tron S Sportback, and the pinnacle of the line-up, the e-tron GT and RS e-tron GT.reports. We had a drive in the e-tron 55 S Line and e-tron GT and can attest to the exhilarating acceleration offered from both vehicles. The 300kW and 561N.m offered from the two electric motors located on either axle makes for spirited performance off the line.
The GT's low centre of gravity and precise steering proved to be two ingredients that made driving the brief test route entertaining. The four-wheel-drive system offers an exhausting amount of grip and the instant torque means it can provide mini-facelifts with a stab of the accelerator.
