Getting some peace and quiet in Audi's big EV

Peace: one thing this car does very well. While we like our EVs to have some kind of character and sound signature that links with progress, the e-tron’s total lack of it and the acoustic glazed side windows (a £595 option which add even more kilos to the corpulent kerbweight) make it a truly peaceful place to travel. You progress silently on a raised perch totally isolated from the world. Engaging, no. A relaxing way to cover distance, yes. And in 2020, there's a lot to be said for stress-free moments of bliss.
