Why is the range of the Audi e-Tron limited compared to other electric vehicles?

I recently purchased an Audi e-Tron and I've noticed that its range is significantly lower compared to other electric vehicles on the market. Is there a technical reason for this and is there anything I can do to improve the range?

Hello Samantha, thank you for reaching out. The range of an electric vehicle depends on a variety of factors such as battery size, efficiency, and driving habits. The Audi e-Tron has a smaller battery compared to other electric vehicles, which is why its range may be limited. However, to improve the range, you can optimize your driving habits by avoiding sudden accelerations and decelerations and using regenerative braking as much as possible.

Hi Samantha, I understand your concern about the limited range of the Audi e-Tron. One reason for this is because it's an all-wheel drive vehicle, which requires more energy to power both front and rear wheels. To improve the range, you can try driving in Eco mode or turning off unnecessary features such as heated seats and climate control. This will help conserve energy and extend your range.
