Driving experience
Audi Q6 e-tron
Quiet, quick and far more efficient than the old e-tron. The Q6 rides comfortably, steers accurately with decent weighting, and feels more agile and lighter on its feet than the GE, helped by the newer PPE platform. Rear-drive is the base; dual-motor quattro adds pace and all-wheel traction. The 800-volt architecture charges far faster on suitable chargers, and the larger battery delivers competitive real-world range. It is a more modern, more rounded electric SUV than the e-tron, with the same hushed refinement and without the efficiency penalty of the early car.
Peugeot 2008
The A94 is a 208 on tiptoes, and it drives with the same light, easy manners. Built on the PF1 bones shared with the 208, it keeps mass down, so the front axle turns in keenly and the raised body adds visibility without making the ride busy. The high-set driving position makes it feel secure and easy to place in town, while most versions ride on a comfort-tuned rear that copes well with broken tarmac. The 1.2 PureTech is lively, the 1.6 BlueHDi is frugal and relaxed, and the EAT6 automatic shifts without fuss. It is a nimble, easy subcompact crossover, not a sporty one.
