I thought we had this somewhere, but someone had unpublished the car by car entry, possibly because it had no photo. So I revived it here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/audi/a3-e-tron-2014/ The theory is good, especially if you can get a £5,000 grant towards its price (which depends how much is left in the grants kitty). But the Chevrolet Volt and Vauxhall Ampera were market failures.
