HOW LONG TO CHARGE THE AUDI Q4 E-TRON?

EV Channels Review

The Audi Q4 e-tron offers a mixed bag when it comes to charging performance. While home charging via a 240V outlet takes a manageable 7.5 to 9 hours for a full charge, DC fast charging presents a more nuanced picture. Audi claims a 5-80% charge in 36 minutes, a figure the reviewer largely confirms, achieving it in 38 minutes. However, the reviewer notes that the vehicle doesn't sustain its peak charging rate for long, dropping below 100 kW after just 15 minutes and significantly slowing down after 80% state of charge. Despite this, adding 100 miles of range takes only 15 minutes, and 200 miles in 42 minutes. The reviewer suggests that while not the fastest charging EV on the market, the Q4 e-tron is adequate for road trips, with a strong recommendation to unplug at 80% to maximize efficiency. The vehicle's charging curve could be improved to hold higher rates for longer.
