Audi E-tron GT

Updated electric four-door is almost entirely new underneath, but is the recipe actually improved? Sitting serenely at 185kph in the outside lane of a glass-smooth autobahn, it occurs to me that the newly updated Audi E-tron GT might be the most invincible-feeling car on sale, at least before you get into the realm of Unimogs and literal near-indestructibility.The original E-tron GT, only recently retired, had a likeable sense of unflappability to it, but not to this extent. That said, you might look at its replacement here and wonder what exactly has changed. Aside from the bumpers, not a single exterior panel has been updated. The expansive, peaceful cabin of Audi’s electric flagship is fundamentally unaltered too, although there are some trim changes.However, underneath the fat-hipped, long-snouted body, this is, in the words of erstwhile Quattro chief Stephan Reil, who now leads Audi’s R&D division, “almost a completely new car”. Right now, there’s no reason to doubt that: the Mk2 feels freakishly advanced. Let's find out why that is.
