I don't know how I never got that idea. I've always complained that a panorama roof is mainly a feature for the rear passengers - well, this is actually rather excellent.

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Don’t know where you get the “bad” from. I owned one and they were amazing EVs. They took the approach of being first and foremost and Audi that just happened to have an electric drive train and that was perfect. Also I know a lot of people shit on them for their 220mi range, but I had a L2 charger at home and only used it around the metro and occasionally small trips and never needed to use a charger anywhere else but home. I enjoyed the power and looks too. The brakes did an amazing job stopping it down because of how heavy it was. Too many lower end EVs forget about that and feel “squishy”. All in all, you made a great choice.
It really uses a lot of energy and it doesn't have V2L or thermal preconditioning for the battery or super fast CCS charging or any of the other niceties that more modern platforms have.
That said, all of that is just fine for me, I just pull my trailer when working in the forest and very occasionally go on longer trips which are fine as well, to be honest. Chilling a bit at the charger every 2 hours is okay, usually my dog tags along so we're taking a break anyway.
At home it gets charged from my solar panels for about half the year, so that's cheap driving at least in summer.
Nah, you're right, it's a nice but not very modern thing that has been overtaken by time. I like it though, but I also use an IBM Model M, so take that as you will.
