As you can see from my Avatar I have been an Avant guy forever. I begged for the RS6 Avant to be brought back to the US.

One test drive and I was hooked. Then COVID delayed my custom paint car delivery and I just went and grabbed an e-tron that was not moving from the dealers lot. I only worry now if driving a crossover/SUV has converted me to a higher stance guy. But YES, bring the Avant back to the US!

The "Avant" and "EV" combination could be REALLY great.

So it seems the Macan EV is launching in Singapore on Jan 25th, wonder how far behind the Audi will be given that the Q6 was supposed to launch ahead of the macan.

As a followup to my last post, I ended up with the Genesis GV70 Electrified Prestige. It's an amazing vehicle! The infotainment and remote control app is so far superior to Audi, I couldn't even begin to put it into words.

When this lease is up, I may consider coming back if the Q6 is as good as it seems. But, they also need to get their remote app issues fixed, as that system is so just so broken...

Congratulations!

I gave up waiting on the Q6 too, got a BMW i5 M60.

Cibgratulations! How does it deal with regen? Is it One Pedal, Coast/Regen, have paddle shifters, etc?

All of the above. With the paddle shifters you can go from zero regen (coast), through three levels of regen, and finally I-Pedal, which is full one-pedal driving. I'm liking the I-Pedal mode, but it does take a bit of getting used to.

I don't blame you, and I'm sure that BMW is great! I test drove the iX, and it was a great vehicle, but bigger than I wanted, and definitely a BMW premium price.

It woutd be nice if the Q8 had the I-Pedal equivalent, but with the very dynamic way I use the padde shifters, I don't think I like to have it as a click on the paddle. A separate button, or something, would be nice.
