The Audi E-Tron GT Has A Monster Charging Curve! DC Fast Charge Test From 0-100%

Kyle is in Germany with @KrisRifa and his Audi e-tron GT. This car is built on the same platform as Taycan and therefore has the same 93.4kWh (gross) battery pack. In this video Kyle analyzes the DCFC curve of the GT and shows how it’s really the benchmark of production EVs today.

0-80% in what 20 minutes? That’s just awesome really, all we need now is the charging network to catch-up and become totally reliable.

Man this Audi is a thing of Beauty. I like it much better than model S looks

[Miata]

Great explanation of the charging curve. So many people new to EVs are just starting to tune in to the idea of owning their first EV. They need to understand you don't DC charge for a "fill up."
What an Amazing car. I look forward to the Lucid test.
Bring on the Nerdy!

Honestly thought we were years from this kind of performance.

[Jacob-ukkl]

I think you're neutral when you assess cars - thank you for that

[ronaldlife]

2 years later and this is still one of the best curves in the market!

[irfanhusein]

Kyle and kris both post very informative and enjoyable content. Thank you both.

Dude, love your.... "energy" and play by play commentary on charging!

[BillB]

Great to see a legacy automaker take top spot on charging.

[aussieuGA]

Great results. Make me wonder though what we will see a few years down the line. Are they reformulating the equivalent of the “lifetime fluids” promise where things are designed to last just until the warranty ends? I’d lease it, have that great recharge experience, then evaluate the buyout as time goes on.

[alexmeliss]

would be interesting to see how those batteries degrade over time, there are probably some long term impacts of such a charging curve

[jull]

Curious what the implications are for battery longevity

[bnkwupt]

Really impressive charging curve and it does appear to have hit some thermal limits in the 80s. If you have time, a 50-100% test would be great.

[vidarwaagb]

Do you guys have any information on how to precondition the car?
After a 20 minute drive and 25% I barely get 88kW, only once have I maxed a 225kW charger.

[zfullthrottled]

Question for you: I use my car (2024 eTron GT Premium Plus Performance) primarily for daily driving so I really don’t need to charge it up above 80% ever. Should I charge it to 100% every now and then to use the whole battery and drain it all the way down as well or just go to 80% twice a week like I usually do? My daily commute requires me to charge to 80% twice a week, usually Wednesday and Saturday/Sunday (to be ready for the work week). I want to maintain my batteries as long as I can.

[SirHackaLt.]

Awesome charging speed! Nice one Audi. 👍

[teslafudge]

Great curve. Bullish charging. Really great that the Audi gives you all the info.

[Ducatista]

Out of curiosity, How does the charge curve look if plugged into a 400v charger (like a 150-200kW unit)?

[IgorChumakov]

Guys, first of all, thanks for the video! Just recently bought my RS e-tron GT 2022 and I'm now a glad fan of EV 😂. Question: do you have this charging curve as a graph? Thank you!

[jakobwidmaier]

Wow is that in Unterhaching, Munich? That's like 5km(3mi) from where I live
