I got an e-tron in brochure in the mail (they probably targeted me because I drive a 530e). It says that e-tron owners get 1000kWh free charging at Electrify America stations. That's great, but the nearest location is 30 or more miles from me. And I live in a large metropolitan area.

These 250kW charge capable cars (e-tron, Taycan, etc.) sound good, but it appears it will be some time before they have the majority of the population covered. Tesla, on the other hand, has charging stations everywhere. Audi should not be pushing the e-tron's fast charging if recharging stations with that capability barely exist. Anytime I might need a remote charge I would have to wait for a long time. That is not how its advertised (sounds a lot like "clean diesel").
