Great build
It was fun to build. I enjoyed it very much. I thought it was going to be a little to easy to build but it did challenge me some.

Great Lego build with added bonus of remote playability
This was the first Lego Technic Remote Controlled Vehicle that I’ve built and it was absolutely awesome. The detail of the vehicle on its own was perfect, especially the shocks, but the fact that you can actually drive it via an app on the phone was the icing on the cake.

Impossible Sticker Build
Instructions were not helpful, ended up not being able to fit several pieces on. Too many stickers

Broken
The box it came in was smashed. So inside there was a bag that was ripped open. I really don't have time for this. I have cancer and I'm not feeling very good.

Great build but….
My son and I have taken apart and rebuilt because the vehicle will not move…Bluetooth connection is fine and it says it is moving but it will not move. When lifted tirés rotate fine but once down on the floor it will not move. Replaced batteries with new ones but still does not move….suggestions…my son is disappointed

Beautiful Product
As someone just getting into LEGOs, tackling this was no joke even with my girlfriend. We managed to complete it in just under 5 hours together and we both had our ups and downs during it, making sure to crosscheck each other's work before moving on. Once completed, it was absolutely magnificent to look at. It does seem a bit slow for what it could be, and that was a little disappointing, but then again it is just so beautiful to look at! Absolutely recommended for many car enthusiasts or someone wanting to tackle their next LEGO build!

Looks great, fun to build, but it doesn't perform.
This set looks cool, but its performance and strength are underwhelming. One of the technic beams in the rear of the vehicle collapsed after the car repeatedly backed into an obstacle, and the piece's counterpart is showing signs of stress. This vehicle has minimal torque, so if you want a car that will be able to drive on rough terrain, this is not it. However, if you only want to drive it inside, I would recommend this set.

Good build for displays and play
Challenging build at times, but worth it. Lots of decals, I mean a lot, 2 full large sheets. Driving functions are easy to learn and the sound effects from the smart device control make it a better experience. Wish it came with lights (like the Porsche GT4 e-performance kit) There are aftermarket kits that I’ll be adding later

Great build but could be a little faster
The set was filled with interesting details such as the circular gear racks, it was pretty fast, but maybe there could have been a 1:5 gear ratio instead of a 2:1 gear ratio which would have made it faster.

What a superb build, play, and overall experience!
I purchased the LEGO Audi RS Q e-tron (42160) is superb! The build was a joy and I was excited to complete it in just a 24-hour period while on vacation. Total build time was approximately 8 hours. I look forward to many hours of driving this set around the yard and in various settings!

First step is to paint the wheels Gold. Then wait for Cold weather to start building it.

Not worth for money
It does not work as remote control car. The wheels are spinning fast in the air, but once I place this car on the floor, the wheels not spinning well so it won't drive. Lego asked a lot of questions when I asked for help, such as what brand and which version of the phone I am using, or the brand name of the batteries I use for this car, are they all new? and how many of the batteries (!) If it is working only with particular phone or particular brand batteries, it should be stated on the package. Huge disapointment

Too heavy to drive
After completing the product we wanted to drive it, but it turns out the vehicle is too heavy for the engine. The motor and controls works, but it doesn't have enough torque to move the car. We also tried replacing all batteries with brand new Duracell batteries. My son got super disappointed... 😢

Hmm, something doesn't sound right! A bit of rebuilding might be in order, while making sure that each part is in the exact position shown in the instructions. It's also super important that the gears have extra room to turn. If that doesn't get it moving, reach out at LEGO.build/Service-BV so we can help!

Very unique Lego
This is a very advanced in unique product. I'm not aware of any other motorized Lego that could be controlled for the app on your phone. Building is not for the beginner or even the average Lego enthusiast. This is a difficult vehicle to build and you really need to use your three-dimensional skills and study The diagrams and pictures to build it correctly. I had one of the front wheel hubs on upside down as I didn't realize from the picture that they could be oriented with the two tabs towards the top or towards the bottom in the car was sitting on an angle, and the suspension was not working symmetrically. It took quite a while, but I finally figured it out, I have not finished the product and tried it with the app so I really can't comment on how much fun it'll be to drive and how much control you'll actually have over speed and turning in maneuvering.
