They look pretty decent. Way better than the Mercedes EQE.

  I agree. Looking better than the EQE is about the lowest bar there is

I’m thoroughly enjoying the mental workout this discussion provides. It’s like a gym for the brain.????

The interior design is a very huge deviation from their former designs. I might have to see one in person to see if I like them or not.

Performance wise I hope they have some range on that thing. The only downsides of many other Audi EVs were their ranges.

I own an Audi etron and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE It. It is not this model. Top build quality plus the Audi ride. I will purchase another one when I need one.

I’m halfway through the video, and all I see is showing off characteristics that do not improve the drivability and experience behind the wheel.
Again, EVs are only targeting Rich customers.

1:15 complete waste of use, no one needs that and will distract other drivers because they will not know if they are going to turn signal because that’s where you’d expect it to be .

  The normal light assembly already cost almost that much. Many times Audi vehicles are totaled from accidents that don’t look very severe at all.

  way more than that. on a q5, they have upper and lower tail lights. the lowers have no leds and are $900. idk how much the uppers are but probably 2-3k per side. some of the headlights on higher trims like say an rsq8 can be close to 10k for one. with this new technology and the light bar only one piece id guess possibly 15 maybe even 20k.

  This is an example of a car company that focuses on stupid stuff to distract consumers rather than safety and import tech. Be like Tesla, way better

If animated LEDs and the hefty price tag is all that sets this car apart then that’s a very expensive set of animated LEDs.

There is no such thing as the perfect pitch. But you can get close by implementing a few research-backed methods to your delivery, deck, and message.

In this episode of Build Mode, host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Dr. Eike Gerhardt, who has aPhD in pitching and spent nearly a decade studying the science of startup pitching before starting Autopoiesis Sciences. And he’s joined by Demetri Maxim, co-founder and CEO of Nephrogen, who came in second at TechCrunch Startup Battlefield 2025.

Together, they break down Demetri’s actual Startup Battlefield pitch to unpack what worked, what could be improved, and what research tells us about how investors respond to founders. Eike explains why credibility signals matter, how technical founders can simplify without oversimplifying, and why Q&A should be treated as a second pitch. Demetri shares how he learned to explain complex biotech to generalist investors, how redesigning his deck changed his confidence onstage, and what he would do differently today.
They also explore how body language and authenticity affect a pitch, how investor questions can reveal bias, and how founders can use AI to prepare for difficult Q&A.
