Edmunds Senior Reviews Editor Mark Takahashi trekked all the way to Abu Dhabi to drive one of the most anticipated EVs to come to market: the 2019 Audi e-tron. In this review, he evaluates all the features that are important to shoppers in this rather exclusive luxury EV class.

Q: How much range does it have?
