Coupe-styled SUVs are expanding into further segments, and having a model like the Q4 Sportback e-tron in the popular electric SUV class is hugely important for Audi. It’s a brilliant option too, not least with its clever packaging meaning it’s hardly any less practical than the standard car. Offering an enjoyable driving experience, potential long range and all the technology, the Q4 Sportback e-tron is a remarkable EV that feels far more than Audi’s most affordable battery-electric model.

Design
Introduced as Audi’s more affordable EV, the Q4 e-tron sits beneath the regular e-tron and e-tron GT in the brand’s growing electric range. Developed around an EV-specific electric car platform, it allows the car to offer far more interior space than is typical of a car in this class.
Slotting between the Q3 and Q5 in Audi’s SUV range, this Sportback model adds a further pillar to this electric SUV thanks to its sleek, lowered roofline. It not only means this SUV looks more dynamic than the standard car, but enhances the electric range too – the Sportback travelling around seven miles further from a single charge.
The Q4 Sportback e-tron demonstrates a fresh new exterior design direction for Audi. Headed up by a closed-off version of Audi’s Singleframe grille, it’s also been designed with a special focus on aerodynamics, with a number of measures introduced to help manage airflow, and therefore maximise the range. Large alloy wheels are fitted across all versions, with the S line and Black Edition models getting a sportier appearance thanks to the more pronounced air inlets and redesigned grille pattern.
The Sportback only builds on the look of the regular Q4 e-tron too, with that sloping roofline helping to give it a particularly elegant appearance, and fitting the ‘coupe’ billing. One particularly neat touch is the rear spoiler, which not only adds to the look of the Q4 Sportback e-tron, but helps to improve aero too. The striking shade of Aurora Violet (previously reserved for Audi Sport models) is also a welcome addition.
Tech
In Audi’s line-up, the Q4 Sportback is a true tech pioneer, even introducing a raft of new features to the brand’s line-up. This EV’s 11.6-inch touchscreen is the largest fitted to an Audi model to date and is packed with features, including integrated apps and satellite navigation that is overlaid by Google Earth maps. It’s clever stuff.
High-spec Black Edition models are also equipped with Audi’s advanced Matrix LED headlights. Also including ‘dynamic’ sequence lighting at the front and rear, this Matrix feature works with a camera that can detect other vehicles, and it’s able to filter the beam around other road users while maintaining the high beam, all without dazzling those driving in the opposite direction.
Engines & Performance
Audi offers three powertrain options on the Q4 e-tron Sportback – the 45 e-tron, 45 e-tron quattro, and 55 e-tron quattro. The first model is rear-wheel-drive, with the flagship ‘55 quattro’ getting a second electric motor at the front, allowing Audi’s trademark quattro all-wheel-drive system.
Starting with the ‘45’, this produces 286PS and, with its 82kWh battery allows for a claimed range of between 324-339 miles^.
The 45 e-tron quattro uses a LG Gen1 evo 82kWh unit that allows for a claimed electric range of between 313-326 miles^.
At the top of the range, the 55 e-tron’s twin motors produce It also adopts a slightly punchier motor, producing 340PS, with the 82kWh battery also being used and allowing for a range of between 313-326 miles^ from a full charge.
Statistics
For maximum performance, the 55 e-tron quattro is the version to go for, with this able to sprint from 0-62mph in just 5.4 seconds thanks to the healthy power reserves. It has a 112mph top speed, where speeds like these are permitted.
With the 45 e-tron quattro, you can reach 62mph from a standstill in 6.6 seconds, while it will take 6.7 seconds with the ‘45’ model. As for charging, the Q4 e-tron is able to charge at up to 175kW, meaning a charge from five to 80 per cent capacity will take around 28 minutes with a quick enough charger.

Figures quoted are subject to change due to ongoing approvals/changes and figures may include options not available in the UK. Please consult your local Audi Centre for further information. Data correct in April 2023. Lithium-ion batteries, of the type used in most electric vehicles (including Audi electric vehicles) have a restricted lifespan. Battery capacity will reduce over time, with use and charging. Reduction in battery capacity will affect the performance of the vehicle, including the range achievable, and may impact resale value. New car performance figures (including battery capacity and range) may be provided for the purposes of comparison between vehicles. You should not rely on new car performance figures (including battery capacity and range), in relation to used vehicles with older batteries, as they will not reflect used vehicle performance in the real world.
