2023 Audi RS e-tron GT review

1. Incredible performance 

The Audi RS e-tron GT is the high-performance version of the already impressive e-tron GT. The 2023 RS model has two electric motors that produce a total of 590 horsepower and 612 lb-ft of torque — and that’s just in Normal mode. There’s also a Boost function that increases power to 637 hp, helping the 2023 RS e-tron GT reach zero to 60 mph in just three seconds. Despite these performance credentials, it manages a decent range from its 93.4-kWh battery pack. When fully charged, the 2023 Audi RS e-tron GT can manage an EPA-estimated range of 232 miles.

2. Well-equipped interior 

For a high-end performance vehicle, you’d expect a lengthy feature list and Audi doesn’t disappoint. You get everything you might expect including smartphone connectivity, a premium audio system, and a beautiful panoramic sunroof. On top of this, there’s also wireless device charging, an available Wi-Fi hotspot, and satellite radio.

3. Comfortable ride 

It’s not often that performance vehicles come with a comfortable ride but Audi manages to find a balance in the 2023 RS e-tron GT. Some might feel like the handling is compromised by the focus on comfort but it makes the RS e-tron GT so much more practical for daily driving. To add to the comfort levels, you get spacious and supportive front seats with 14-way power adjustments and available Nappa leather upholstery. 

4. Quick charging 

To give you more time out on the road, the 2023 Audi RS e-tron GT has ultra-rapid charging capabilities. If you’re plugged into a 350-kW DC fast charger, you can charge from 5% to 80% in just 23 minutes. That’s enough time to snap a few photos, grab some snacks, and stretch your legs before getting underway again. 

5. Distinctive styling 

With a body-colored grille, sleek lines, and a ferocious-yet-high-tech look about it, this is an Audi you’ll love to park up just to look at — and stopping to charge gives you plenty of opportunity. Look out for a range of colors from understated monochrome tones to the more vibrant Tactical Green Metallic, Tango Red Metallic, and Ascari Blue. There’s also a Carbon Performance package to look out for that adds carbon-fiber side skirts, black exterior badging, and illuminated door sills.
