Hi all,
thx for letting me join the forum.
Since a month I’m driving a Manhattan Grey 55. Funny thing, I’m living 40 mi. from the Brussels e-tron factory?,
No problems yet. I was always sceptical about the range, and yes, on country roads my scepticism has been confirmed (330 km ). But I enjoy the smooth ride, the finish, the comfort and the silence. So no complaining yet.
BTW, my other car is an Abarth 180hp with rock hard suspension and a very, very loud exhaust. So, the best of both worlds, isn’t it?
Best regards
Paul

Welcome to the forum @PaulDv and congrats on the new e-tron! Have you owned other EVs before?

Side note - I love the Abarth, they're soooo much fun to drive!

Welcome. Whats it like finding places to charge near you? Are there enough?

Hi, I’m blessed with a 11 KWh AC box at home, allowing me enough juice for commuting. On the other hand, public 150 KWh DC are like 4-leaf clovers, very difficult to find. Now with the lockdown, holiday travel is not allowed. When/if I will travel the 550 mi. to Italy, it will mean planning from one charger to another and adding 25% charging/queing time. Perhaps I’ll rent a petrol car 🤣
