Audi Q4 E-Tron (2021-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Plush cabin is packed with tech	A Skoda Enyaq has a longer range for a lot less cash
Capable of charging at 100kW or 125kW, depending on the model	Irritating touch-sensitive controls on the steering wheel
Roomy enough for a family of four	Doesn't really stand out from a crowded field of rivals

Quick Summary

The Audi Q4 E-Tron is a mid-sized premium family electric SUV that sits between the Q3 and Q5 in Audi's line-up. Available as a standard model or sleeker Sportback variant, it's the brand's most attainable pure electric vehicle. The Q4 E-Tron is built on Volkswagen Group's MEB platform, shared with the Skoda Enyaq iV and VW ID.4. Battery options include a 52kWh unit (208-mile range) or 77kWh unit (316-mile range), with a four-wheel-drive 50 E-Tron variant offering 295bhp and a 298-mile range. The mid-range Q4 40 E-Tron delivers 201bhp and represents the sweet spot for price and driving range.

The Q4 E-Tron is a well-rounded electric car with excellent charging speeds, a plush tech-laden interior, and sufficient space for families. Ride comfort is composed, steering is precise, and the regenerative braking system is intuitive once mastered. Running costs are competitive, with home charging costing around 5p per mile and significant tax savings compared to petrol or diesel equivalents. However, it fails to stand out from an increasingly competitive field, particularly when the Skoda Enyaq iV offers similar build quality, longer range, and comparable driving dynamics at a considerably lower price.

Best for: Premium brand-conscious buyers seeking a capable family electric SUV with advanced technology and strong charging capabilities.

Not ideal for: Budget-conscious EV buyers, those prioritising maximum range, or drivers wanting a vehicle that truly stands out from rivals.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Q4 E-Tron if: You prioritise premium branding, want advanced technology and strong charging capabilities, and seek a capable family electric SUV.

Consider alternatives if: You're budget-conscious, prioritise maximum range, or want a vehicle that truly stands out from rivals.

Competitive Position: The Audi Q4 E-Tron is a fine premium family electric SUV and a well-rounded EV with excellent charging speeds, a plush tech-laden interior, and sufficient space for families. However, it struggles to differentiate itself in an increasingly competitive market. The Skoda Enyaq iV feels similarly well built, offers a longer range, drives comparably, and costs considerably less. The Ford Mustang Mach-E is also quicker for a similar price, whilst the VW ID.4 provides better value. The Q4 E-Tron is thoroughly recommendable if you can secure a competitive price, but it fails to stand out as a clear class leader.
