With the introduction of the Q4 e-tron and Q4 e-tron Sportback SUVs in 2022, Audi will double the size of its EV-focused e-tron lineup, which reflects the company’s ambitious goals in the luxury electric vehicle market. The Q4 siblings have a footprint that is similar to the small Q5 crossover and are smaller than the mid-size e-tron SUV. While a single 201-hp electric motor and a 77.0-kWh battery pack serve as the powertrain’s foundation, an optional 295-hp dual-motor system with all-wheel drive offers greater performance. According to claims, the battery pack can provide a driving range of up to 241 miles per charge. When the Q4 e-tron versions go on sale, they will compete with other small electric SUVs like the Tesla Model Y and the Volvo XC40 Recharge. By the end of 2021, the Q4 e-tron should be available at Audi dealerships.

Is the Audi Q4 e-tron sold in the United States?
The Audi Q4 e-tron was available in the United States with two different powertrain options: the Q4 40 e-tron and Q4 50 e-tron quattro. Only the Q4 50 e-tron quattro is offered at the moment.
Rear-wheel drive and a single motor are standard on the Q4 40 e-tron. Its electric motor has 229 lb-ft of torque and 201 horsepower. Also respectable are the top-speed and acceleration numbers. The highest speed is capped at 99 mph, while the dash to 60 mph takes 7.9 seconds.
For aficionados, the Q4 50 e-tron quattro is the model to select. Due to the dual-motor arrangement, it has quattro AWD. The SUV can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.8 seconds thanks to the powertrain’s 295 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque. The top speed it can reach is 112 mph.
The typical battery pack has an 82 kWh capacity and can be charged at a maximum rate of 9.6 kW (AC)/125 kW. (DC). It takes nine hours to charge the SoC on AC at 9.6 kW from 0 to 100 percent. 80 percent of the energy can be added in roughly 38 minutes when using a DC fast charger.
The SUV has a heat pump inside. If necessary, the cabin can be heated using the heat from the high voltage electric modules. A three-stage brake regeneration is also present. The Q4 50 e-efficiency tron’s is the same as that of the Q4 40 e-tron. Only when the system detects low traction does the front axle engage. When the grip and conditions are good, it drives like a rear-wheel-drive SUV.
Customers can also select from a variety of drive modes with the Audi Drive Select system, including Efficiency, Comfort, Dynamic, and Individual.
Audi Q4: Is it larger than Q3?
However, there is some pleasure in accelerating. As with most electric vehicles, the numbers on paper don’t truly tell the whole story. The 0-62mph speed is 8.5 seconds (0.4 seconds faster than the EQA). The Q4 has a rapid departure from the line at low speeds, especially in Dynamic mode where the throttle response is at its sharpest, but that energetic performance is still present at highway speeds as well.
The fact that the electric powertrain is significantly simpler to package is one advantage of an EV platform. Compared to a combustion engine, an electric motor is far smaller, and the battery can be kept underneath the floor. Few vehicles are able to utilize space as effectively as those in the MEB family, thanks in large part to the Volkswagen Group’s effective utilization of this advantage.
The Q4 e-tron is the same. With 4,588mm, it is only modestly 104mm longer than Audi’s Q3 and 125mm longer than the Mercedes EQA, but the inside is much larger than any of those vehicles. The floor is almost entirely flat, and the rear legroom is a particular feature. As a result, it is more than ample even with three persons seated across the back row. Although the door bins are a touch small, headroom is also excellent, and there are many creative storage choices up front to help hide away various treasures.
Can I make a Q4 e-tron reservation?
The all-new 2022 Audi Q4 e-tron lineup, which includes the traditional SUV and the Q4 e-tron Sportback, is anticipated to arrive on the market shortly with eye-catching style. We believe that local customers will adore this electric vehicle alternative, which they may reserve by getting in touch with our company.
Is the Audi Q4 running late?
Due to the fact that many manufacturers had to halt or reduce production during the coronavirus pandemic, as well as the difficulties associated with the semiconductor shortage and the shipping delays made worse by Brexit, we are finding that reaching capacity and resuming supply chain activity take some time.
As a result, many new cars’ lead times for delivery are growing longer than anticipated. We are closely monitoring the situation and will continue to proactively update our clients on developments. As a resource for people who might be considering to replace their automobile soon, we have put up a list with the help of our core brand partners. The best course of action is to speak with the professionals at Pike + Bambridge for the most recent, unbiased advice and assistance!

- Stock for the Korean brand had generally been good up to 2022. With factory order lead times now extending upwards of six months, this is rapidly dwindling and options are becoming more scarce.
- The well-liked Kia e-Niro models “2” and “2 Long Range” are no longer available for ordering, but the higher-specified “3” and “4+” models are.
Commercial vehicles
The lack of microchips has had a significant impact on producers of pickup and van brands. Brands used to produce bulk stock vans, but now they must modify similar automobiles and produce set orders. Since almost all brands no longer operate on a “first come, first served” basis but instead wait until they have enough of the same spec to create, prioritization has become suspect. Pickups and vans typically take 9 to 12 months to arrive, while some arrive significantly sooner. To talk about your fleet possibilities, speak with your account manager right away.
Pricing
The recommended retail price (RRP) and on-the-road price (OTR) of the Audi Q4 e-tron 50 quattro are 52,445 and 53,160, respectively. The OTR Price includes delivery, VAT, the first year of VED, the initial registration charge for the vehicle, and number plates.
Drivetrain and Performance
A fully electric vehicle, the Audi Q4 e-tron 50 quattro (BEV). The Audi Q4 e-tron 50 quattro has a 220 kW maximum power output (295 hp). 339 lb-ft of torque is the maximum. All-wheel drive Audi Q4 e-tron 50 quattro has a 6.2-second 0 to 62 mph acceleration time. It can go as fast as 112 mph.
Battery and Charging
The Audi Q4 e-tron 50 quattro’s battery has a total energy storage capacity of 82 kWh. The available energy is 76.6 kWh. A fully charged battery has a potential range of roughly 240 kilometers. The actual driving range will be determined by a number of variables, such as the environment, the topography, the use of climate control, and driving habits.
For instance, maintaining high speeds in a chilly environment might result in a range of about 170 miles. However, if you drive slowly in good weather, you can go an additional 345 miles.
The Type 2 connector is used for charging, and the on-board charger can produce a maximum power of 11 kW. This takes about 8 hours 15 minutes to fully recharge a totally discharged battery. To do this, though, a 3-phase grid connection is required. Currently, this link is absent from the vast majority of houses and charging stations. The average maximum charging power is 7.4 kW, which translates to a charge time of 12 hours and 15 minutes and a charge speed of 20 mph. The typical wall plug will take about 39 hours and 15 minutes to fully charge the car.
A CCS connector enables rapid charging. 135 kW is the greatest quick charging power. At this power, the battery cannot be charged continuously. The average charge power during a rapid charge session will be close to 103 kW. This takes about 35 minutes to fully charge the battery from 10% to 80%. This kind of quick charging will increase range by around 165 miles.
Energy Consumption
The Audi Q4 e-tron 50 quattro’s estimated combined (city and highway) energy consumption is 319 Wh per mile. In contrast, 127 mpg of gasoline would be consumed by this amount of energy in a conventional petrol vehicle.
The actual energy use will vary on a number of variables, including the climate, the topography, if climate control systems are used, and driving habits. For instance, maintaining high speeds in cold conditions may require about 451 Wh of energy per mile. However, efficiency will rise to roughly 222 Wh per mile when traveling at modest speeds in comfortable conditions.
CO2 Emission
Driving the Audi Q4 e-tron 50 quattro results in no CO2 emissions. Only the vehicle’s own direct emissions are included in this. The usage of fossil fuels may have (partially) produced the energy required to charge the battery. CO2 emissions from internal combustion engines are a constant while driving. Additionally, fossil fuel production and transportation result in CO2 emissions.
