Pros Drives well, comfortable, high-quality. Not as compromised as you might think
Cons Still a bit compromised. Plus it's pricier. More testing required to measure efficiency
The Q4 e-tron and Q4 e-tron Sportback are all-new models for 2022. They join the larger e-tron SUVs and the racy e-tron GT sedan in Audi's fast-growing electric-vehicle lineup. With a base price of $44,995, the Q4 e-tron is actually cheaper to start than the gasoline-powered Q5 SUV. We recommend the more powerful 295-hp 50 model, but those who prefer a coupe-like look to their SUV can opt for the swoopier Sportback model, which is offered with the same dual-motor all-wheel-drive powertrain setup.
Pros Efficient, rides well, refinement a strong point
Cons Pricey, polarising looks
Pros Interior styling Brisk acceleration Facial unlocking is seamless Color options inside and out
Cons Unsettled front suspension Limited geographic availability for this year Lack of steering feel
