Q4 Sportback e-tron 45 quattro (MY21-23)

The Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron 45 quattro (MY21-23) is a 5-seat SUV with all-wheel drive, sold new from 2022 to 2023, when it cost €55,900 in Germany, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 6.9 seconds, slower than 56% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 249 miles (400 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 46% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 131st of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 3.2 mi/kWh (192 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 76.6 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 103 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 269 miles (433 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L). The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand in Germany, a 2022 example is estimated at €18,100–€21,100 and a 2023 one at €21,200–€23,500, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2022 car should still manage about 229 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
