I drove the Audi Q6 e-tron and BMW iX xDrive45 for a week — here’s mid-size luxury SUV I recommend
After driving the Audi Q6 e-tron and BMW iX xDrive45 for a week each, there's one all-electric, mid-size SUV I'd gladly spend my money on.
For luxury vehicle enthusiasts, the debate between Audi and BMW often heats up. This time, I compared two mid-size SUVs from each brand, both priced around $80,000 and featuring all-electric drivetrains. The 2027 Audi Q6 e-tron Premium quattro showcased Audi's signature athletic proportions and tech-forward refinement, while the 2026 BMW iX xDrive45 embraced BMW's bold, avant-garde styling and executive-level treatment.
After driving each model for a week, I found the Audi Q6 e-tron to deliver a more compelling overall driving experience.
