2023 AUDI Q4 SPORTBACK 50 E-TRON QUATTRO REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The EV Revolution Show's episode provides a comprehensive overview of the 2023 Audi Q4 Sportback 50 e-tron quattro, highlighting its appeal as a premium, yet accessible, electric SUV. The reviewer praises its comfortable ride, quiet cabin, and user-friendly controls, particularly appreciating the physical HVAC buttons and the intuitive digital cockpit. The build quality and interior materials are noted as excellent, characteristic of Audi's German engineering. Practicality is a strong suit, with ample rear-seat legroom and a usable cargo area, even in the Sportback variant. The vehicle's performance, with 295 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque, is deemed adequate for daily driving and Canadian winters thanks to the Quattro AWD system. While the EPA-estimated range of 380 km is mentioned, the reviewer acknowledges that real-world range can vary, especially in colder temperatures, but emphasizes the vehicle's strong fast-charging capabilities, with Audi advertising 5-80% in 36 minutes. The reviewer considers the starting price of CAD $59,950, which qualifies for federal incentives, to be a good value for a luxury electric crossover. The Q4 e-tron is positioned as a strong competitor against vehicles like the Tesla Model Y and Genesis GV60, offering a compelling blend of luxury, technology, and practicality.
