A7 e hybrid

[mjt2470]

Hello, for my next car I really want either a full EV or a hybrid. While I like the e-tron and e-tron sportback (don't want to pay the high $ for an e-tron GT/Taycan) I'm curious about the Audi A7 e hybrid. I don't see much information about it and I wouldn't know what to expect from the turbo 4 cyl. Heck, I'm not even sure what kind of overall mileage the A7 e provides.

Just wanted to ask the forum if anyone has bought one and what their impressions are.

I haven't owned a Hybrid but I have the displeasure of working on them. The complexity it adds to the powertrain is pretty ridiculous(Battery, cables, DC/DC, a complete second cooling system, and if you're really lucky, an actual clutch-automated of course, which I don't think the C8 A7 has..dsg?)

I would never own one. I have one apart right now; it's not fun. I'd hate to be the person paying to repair it. I suppose yours will be under warranty. This one I'm in, has only 80,000 miles and the engine and trans has already been out, at least once.

Gas, or EV...I just can't see utility for a hybrid.

I haven't seen a 2022 A7 hybrid yet, but everything I'm seeing shows them to still use the DLZA (3.0 Turbo). Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
