A day trip from wine country to California's northern coast showcases the ultra-quiet and ultra-comfy Q8 E-Tron (and its ultra-good Bang & Olufsen sound system)
tops out at the same 11.5 kW as many of today’s other EVs). All told, I would return after a day of driving – mostly leisurely, but some bits more vigorous – with 61 miles left. Good thing it got those 59 extra miles, eh?
As the Q8 provided the soundtrack, California provided the visuals as I mercifully managed to shake RVs on occasion in favor of aor Tahoe. Up here, California 1 hugs the coast atop gently rolling headlands still amply green after the winter’s many atmospheric rivers. Glimpses of sandy white cliffs and the beaches below appear at points as the coast turns, while the ocean below has a surprisingly almost Caribbean-like turquoise hue .
Scrumptious grilled cheese consumed, I climb back into the Q8 E-Tron and start running through the Apple CarPlay music app for my next selection when it suddenly dawns on me that no cars have passed by the driveway in quite some time. There must be a hold-up.
