Used 2022 Audi e-tron SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2022 Audi e-tron is an all-electric midsize SUV sold in a number of trim levels. The standard e-tron is all-wheel-drive and is powered by two electric motors (one at the front, one at the back). Maximum output is 355 horsepower and 414 lb-ft of torque, with a boost to 402 horsepower and 490 lb-ft for up to 8 seconds when the transmission is in Sport mode. EPA-estimated range is 222 miles on a full charge.

This e-tron is available in Premium, Premium Plus and Chronos Edition trim levels.

e-tron Premium
The base e-tron Premium starts you off with:

  • 20-inch wheels
  • DC fast-charging capability (up to 150 kW)
  • Adaptive air suspension (adjusts for ride height, ride comfort and handling stability)
  • Hands-free liftgate
  • Panoramic sunroof
  • Digital instrument panel
  • Power-adjustable, heated steering wheel
  • Leather upholstery
  • Heated front seats
  • Four-zone climate control system
  • 10.1-inch infotainment touchscreen
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration
  • 10-speaker audio system
  • Navigation system

The Premium's advanced safety features include:

  • Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert (warns you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while reversing)
  • Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)
  • Front and rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of or behind the vehicle when parking)

In contrast to other Audis, the e-tron has a relatively light set of optional features. For the Premium, you can add:

  • Convenience package
    • Black-painted exterior styling elements
    • Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the vehicle and the car in front )
    • Lane keeping system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
    • Emergency assist (detects an unresponsive driver and brings the e-tron to a safe stop)
    • Turning assist (detects when a driver is making an unsafe turn across approaching traffic and automatically stops the e-tron)
    • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the e-tron and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
    • Rear automatic braking (brakes if sensors detect an imminent collision with an object behind the vehicle)
  • Towing package
    • Tow hitch
    • Seven-pin tow connector
    • 4,000-pound towing capacity

e-tron Premium Plus
The midtier Premium Plus adds:

  • Convenience package (minus the black-painted exterior trim)
  • Additional charging port on right side of SUV
  • Matrix-design headlights
  • Configurable ambient lighting
  • Ventilated front seats
  • Heated rear seats
  • 16-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system
  • Wireless phone charging and an onboard signal booster
  • Traffic sign recognition (alerts the driver to new road signs, including speed limits and stop signs)

The Premium Plus is also available with a pair of packages:

  • Black Optic package
    • 21-inch black-painted wheels
    • Black-painted exterior styling elements
    • Orange brake calipers
  • Towing package

e-tron Chronos
The new Chronos trim effectively takes the place of the Prestige trim from last year's e-tron. It's essentially the same trim, but it's available in exclusive Chronos Gray paint. Features include:

  • Black Optic package
  • Upgraded headlights
  • Dual-pane acoustic glass for a quieter cabin
  • Head-up display (displays important information in your sight line on the windshield)
  • Extended leather on dashboard, console and armrests
  • Massaging front seats
  • Rear window sunshades
  • Soft-close doors (catch as they're being closed and gently pull shut)
  • Intersection assist (warns you of cross traffic in an upcoming intersection)

The Towing package is also available with the Chronos trim.

Which e-tron trim does Edmunds recommend?

A case can be made for any e-tron trim, but most e-tron buyers should be satisfied with the base Premium trim. It's reasonably priced for a luxury EV, and you can further add the Convenience package to get most of the features you'll likely want and need.
