    New Audi A3 eTron Owner

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Last week I added another Audi to the stable.
    Its the new electric plug in hybrid A3 Sportback eTron. I think its still an avant...

    According to the dealer I am the first person to buy the A3 eTron in Florida.
    Here are some pics of the new mule:

    Congrats! I test drove the same color e-tron and liked it, but talked myself out of the hybrid since I was coming from a MK6 GTI. I also felt too much info was going on in the gauge cluster.

    Congrats Boomtime.
    Are those the pic's of your car?
    What trim did you get? When do you get your e-tron delivered?
    Sorry, e-tron owners are around but we're a small group compared to the other PHEVs.

    Mine is Daytona Grey with the sport pkg.
    Had it since end of Feb, 2016 and already put on over 6,000 kms (3,700 mi) since then, and I truly love driving the car.
    My last fossil fuel purchase was over a month ago, there's still 1/2 tank left and I've driven over 1,600 km (~1,000 mi).

    Well, I'm another one of the few. Picked up a Premium Plus to replace my Jetta Sportwagen TDI. Loving the car so far, and I got 60mpg on my first tank. I'm able to commute back and forth to work on battery alone.

    Unfortunately our e-tron didn't survive hurricane Irma, it got salt water storm surge up to the windshield and was declared totaled.
    We will miss little etron and our 70+MPG combined...

    For anyone looking to buy another charger, its for sale.
    I have both the 240V and 120V pigtails and the original carrying case. The charger was upstairs in our stilt home during the storm so it didn't get water.

    Shitty pic..sorry.

    Too bad there isn't a dedicated space here for just eTrons.
    Trying to figure out best way to mount the charger on the garage wall. And def not sending ECS $85 for a lame ass mount they offer.
