They put air suspension in the rear

i dont believe they do - asked my dealler and it is only a stiffness option not the lower/rise one

It’s a pity that they didn’t put air suspension also in the front, so that the car could raise and lower as needed - as the etron or taycan. Maybe that will be an option for the i5 or upper segments in the future.

i don't agree at all - look at the prices of the two you mentioned - it is 2-3 orders of magnitude lower - plus a similar charging speed and better single range

I totally forgot the existence of that mode too!


Ragnerek, what is more desirable for you?
A lower ground clearance, so the car will look sportier and aerodynamics etc. etc.
OR a higher car which it will not ...hit its floor every chance it gets!

I live in a village area and my last 100m is gravel road that should answer your question

BTW in your 2 images the bottom car seems lower!!

Yes I see the same

According to this is 12,5 cm (or 12.4 if you do 4.9*2.54)

I've noticed that the regular version vs the M-sport have a significant difference in height (and in clearance?) when they are visualised in the configurator.

Yeah. - that is the one I have seen - I don’t think it’s reliable though- basing also on your observation on the hight, and for sure reading or hearing somewhere that it should be similar to 4GC or even better due to lack of muffler
