The next electric model from the house of the four rings will be the Audi Q4 e-tron . It will arrive in dealerships in the second quarter of 2021, but reservations are already open on the dedicated website . Even if the official presentation is yet to arrive , with its final appearance, after having anticipated it a couple of years ago with the concept version .
Based on the MEB platform
The SUV will be produced by the German plant in Zwickau and will be based on the Volkswagen Group MEB modular platform , the one on which the Volkswagen ID.4 has already been based , arriving in dealerships from next April.
With its length of 4.6 meters , the Audi Q4 e-tron combines the external dimensions of a mid-range SUV with the habitability of a higher category model, thanks to the reduced dimensions of the electric powertrain and the absence of the transmission shaft.
Spy photos and features
A few weeks ago, we brought you the spy photos of this model. Even with still a fair number of covers, judging from these images, the final version will not differ much from the concept. Among the features there will be a larger grid closed, the wheels from the aerodynamic design and the lack of tailpipes, as well as the headlights seem to propose a new design.
The cockpit will offer a rather large screen for the infotainment system, as well as the digital instrument panel and some physical buttons, to manage the most frequent functions. In addition to a complete package of ADAS.
Over 400 kilometers of autonomy
The Audi Q4 e-tron concept was powered by the electric unit with a total output of 301 horsepower, for acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in 6.3 seconds. The battery was 82 kWh for an autonomy of over 400 kilometers and a recharge up to 80% in about 30 minutes, with a fast column. The features in the series version should be confirmed, if not improved as regards autonomy.
