After spending time behind the wheel of the 2025 Audi Q4 e-tron quattro, it’s clear that Audi has crafted an EV that leans into the brand’s strengths: sharp styling, a tech-forward interior, and a composed, comfortable ride. The Q4 e-tron’s exterior looks every bit the modern Audi, with crisp lines and a premium presence that stands out in the compact luxury EV segment. Inside, the cabin is a showcase of Audi’s latest technology, from the sizable 11.6-inch infotainment touchscreen angled toward the driver to the digital gauge cluster and available augmented reality head-up display. The materials and fit-and-finish are what you’d expect from Audi, though the seats could use a bit more cushioning for long-haul comfort.
On the road, the Q4 e-tron quattro delivers 335 horsepower from its dual-motor setup, providing brisk acceleration. The ride is smooth and the handling is tidy, aided by a tight turning radius and revised steering that feels more precise than before. While it’s not the most engaging EV to drive, it’s certainly competent and easy to live with, making it a practical choice for daily commuting and family duty. Cargo space is generous, with enough room for luggage or groceries, and the rear seat offers decent passenger space.
Range and charging are where the Q4 e-tron finds itself mid-pack. The all-wheel-drive 55 version is EPA-rated for up to 258 miles, and real-world highway range comes in a bit lower, but still competitive. Charging speeds have improved, now supporting up to 175 kW DC fast charging. Audi’s suite of standard driver-assistance features-including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automated emergency braking-adds peace of mind, and the Q4 e-tron’s warranty coverage is in line with other luxury EVs.
The 2025 Q4 e-tron excels in design, technology, and overall refinement, but doesn’t quite lead the segment in range or driving excitement. It’s a safe, stylish, and practical choice for buyers who value Audi’s reputation for quality and want a luxury EV that feels thoroughly modern.
