Just bought 2016 e-tron. Was afraid to charge the battery last night due to the rain. Can the car be charged in the rain?
 
If charging in the rain were a problem Audi would not sell any e-trons in the UK!

Yes, it's fine to charge in the rain.
 
Good point. The materials are clear to not have the charging unit submerged in water, but never clarify if there are any issues with charging in the rain.

only if your singing in it as well..... :oops:
 
The charger supplied with my e-tron has been exposed to rain for a year (thankfully it has not been raining for the whole of that year) with no problems so far.
It sits outside my house plugged into an external domestic socket and happily charges my car overnight.
