The 2023 Audi Q4 e-tron is an electric SUV that offers a premium driving experience with a range of powertrain and design options. Whether you prefer the standard SUV body style or the sleeker Sportback variant, you can enjoy the benefits of Audi's e-tron technology, such as low-anxiety driving range, high-speed charging, and abundant features.
The Q4 e-tron comes in two powertrain variants: the 40 e-tron and the 50 e-tron. The 40 e-tron is a rear-wheel drive model with a single electric motor that produces 201 horsepower and 229 lb-ft of torque. It has a range of 265 miles per charge, which is more than enough for most daily commutes and weekend trips. The 50 e-tron is an all-wheel drive model with two electric motors that deliver 295 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque. It has a slightly lower range of 236 miles per charge, but it offers more performance and traction.
Both powertrain variants use a 77.0-kWh battery pack that can be recharged in about 36 minutes at a public DC fast charger from 5% to 80%. As an added bonus, Audi provides complimentary, 4-year access to the Electrify Canada charging network for Q4 e-tron buyers, which is the nation's leading public charging network of cross-country stations.
The Q4 e-tron also impresses with its interior and exterior design. The cabin is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of cargo space and technology features. The Q4 e-tron comes standard with a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and an 11.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system with navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and SiriusXM satellite radio. Other standard features include a wireless smartphone charging pad, keyless entry, a power-operated liftgate, and a four-way power-adjustable passenger seat.
The exterior of the Q4 e-tron is sleek and modern, with LED headlights and taillights, a large single-frame grille, and aerodynamic wheels. The Sportback variant adds a coupe-like roofline and a spoiler for a sportier look. The Q4 e-tron also offers the S Line appearance package, which adds unique wheels, additional exterior brightwork, and special badging.
The 2023 Audi Q4 e-tron starts at $48,800 for the SUV model and $56,800 for the Sportback model. It competes with other electric SUVs such as the Tesla Model Y, the Volvo C40 Recharge and XC40 Recharge models, and the upcoming Genesis GV60 and Cadillac Lyriq models. The Q4 e-tron is a great choice for anyone looking for a premium electric SUV that combines style, performance, and practicality.
