The Audi salesman on the other end of the line gives no hope: “e-tron? This year? Can you forget it,” he says, adding: “They’re sold out. The successor will be available around the middle of next year.” Madness, around ten months waiting time for a ridiculously expensive premium car. The culprit is the run on e-cars in view of tempting bonuses and disrupted supply chains. Many new cars are allocated rather than sold.
Auto subscription
Now the ID.3 and other models from €539 a month
Benefit from short delivery times, a low minimum contract period and numerous models in the VW FS car subscription.
In co-operation with
But there is a way out of the misery: the car subscription. With this acquisition method, the desired car is only used instead of having to finance or lease it in a complicated manner. Down payments, additional costs for insurance and winter tires are no longer necessary. Instead, there is only a fixed monthly rate that covers all costs. And the best thing about the subscription: The cars can be ordered online, many of them even with short delivery times.
Audi e-tron subscription: 759 euros per month – 1,500 kilometers included
Like2Drive offers the Audi e-tron in its “Fast Lane” – that means short delivery times of between three and five weeks.
The monthly rate for the 408 hp Audi e-tron is 759 euros. 1500 kilometers per month are included at no extra charge. The only catch: The Audi is not made available at a dealership close to home, but has to be picked up in Munich, Memmingen or Aachen. Those who live in Berlin or Flensburg cannot avoid a long journey. But that’s no different with a factory collection in Ingolstadt. As a rule, Like2Drive offers delivery to the home address for an additional charge of 249 euros.
In practice, the range is more than 300 kilometers
With a battery that can store up to 86 kilowatts of electricity, the e-tron achieves a range that is over 300 kilometers in practice. Even if it could only achieve its factory specification of 369 kilometers with an extremely economical driving style, the Audi is therefore a very practical one SUV with lots of power, space and comfort. The version offered by Like2Drive is the Advanced equipment line. That means: lots of pampering extras and assistants are on board.
The minimum age for the e-tron booking is 25 years. The Audi is insured with a deductible of EUR 1,000 for full coverage and EUR 500 for partial coverage. Anyone who drives more than the agreed kilometers must pay 29 cents per additional kilometer upon return.
By the way, the return date for this Like2Drive e-tron is August 31, 2024. So in two years. This makes it a perfect bridging car until Audi can deliver its electric SUV itself again.
