Thanks for a really useful and informative review. Too many reviewers focus on how long it takes to get from 0-60mph or how it's engined, when most of us want to know about range, whether there are buttons or touchscreen, and how easy it is to get people or objects in and out.
Had this car for 7 months, love the car, looks great and very practical. Charging over night you can run this for about £12 a month for 300 miles. Octapus go, 7p per kw overnight. Cons, the buttons on steer wheels you touch by mistake when driving!!!! Number of times the volume keeps going up. I’ve had it break on me twice and Audi were totally horrendous trying to fix it. It just stopped on me in a multi storey car park and said battery fault. Audi dealership said there was nothing wrong with it. I’m hoping the new update takes care of all the bugs (version 3.2).
One of the best reviews I have seen, even though I am waiting for my 2024 Q4 S line 44, so might be biased. I am going from an A6 Avant to my an ev and so looking forward to it. Many thanks.
@@GoksCarLounge Damn, busted!😁I was actually looking for a review on the new DJI Air 3 drone. Go figure. Apologies for the delay in responding, been busy with work on the apartment (in case wife reads this, lol!). Anyway, great review.👍
Hey Gok, Great review, and I like the way you clearly alternate between the subjective and objective. You’ve addressed some of my concerns with EVs but one (a sticking point) remains. IMO they are less convenient than ICE because; 1- a home charger (as you highlighted) is crucial. 2- public charging points don’t receive the same care/attention as a fuel station. 3- driver style aside, the parameters that are recommended to drive within (including cold weather constraints) are greater than a typical ICE. I wonder if infrastructure dissuades more people from purchasing EVs, it definitely does me… Good job 👍👍👍
Hey Mike, thank you very much for watching! :) I agree, there is a long way to go for EV to win over the court of public opinion. I am a long way away from owning one, with better regulations with regards to charge points in the coming years... maybe. Just maybe. Regardless, its made the industry rather interesting :)
Im seroiusly looking to get one of these Q4's on my work scheme...you answered every question I had in my head. Its gonna be a different way of thinking and driving but i'll give it a whirl.....whats not to like 👍👍
Thanks for this video, very interesting as I'm currently thinking of buying a Q4 or a Q6 although I'll probably go for the Q6 as it's a newer platform.
Great review. 7:28 As much as the design is appealing, the lack of a rear wiper is a deal-breaker. Thankfully there are others in the Audi range that fit the bill.
I used to work for Mercedes so what I can tell you is that it’s refined and comfy with decent tech, however it’s a little more expensive than it’s competition and they offer more for your money. If you want value for money I would go with others. If you have any questions let me know 👍🏼
That’s highway robbery! Pricing options for EVs here in the US, VW is giving away 3 years of free DC charging with the ID.4… here though the issue is driving through rural America there are few chargers and half are already broken. Audi doesn’t have the financial incentives currently of the ID.4 ($7500 govt rebate, etc) but definitely seems like the better vehicle in terms of comfort and build quality. Is the infotainment system any good?
I’m not 100% but I think they’re on the same chassis. I was really impressed with the build quality as a whole considering the class of car. Infotainment can do with some streamlining. I just used Apple car play most of the time and worked perfect.
It could have been a great car but isn't. Having come to the Q4 from an Audi saloon the fit, finish and quality of the interior is not in the same league. The standard equipment is woeful, 1 reversing indicator, 1 fog lamp, no front parking sensors, you dont even get springs/clamps in the cup holders! Rear camera is essential, but not standard. The standard headlights are terrible on country lanes. The software just beggars belief that something so buggy and fault ridden got through to production and it doesnt get updates! As a car though, it drives well!
And it’ll cost twice as much as it would to cover 500 miles in an EV, not sure how often you climb into a car and drive 500 miles in one shot, but in the UK that’s going to take you the length of the entire country.
Another really good review. I can’t wait for what’s next… we are coming with you on this one!
You sure are! Need a +1?
I ordered the quattro version last week. Out of all the cars I’ve tried, Q4 45 Quattro Sport was a far better option in its segment.
Congrats! Thanks for watching!

Thanks Dave. Glad you enjoyed it :) thanks for watching 👍🏼
I recently test drove this car. I love it so much.
Had this car for 7 months, love the car, looks great and very practical. Charging over night you can run this for about £12 a month for 300 miles. Octapus go, 7p per kw overnight.

Hope it gets sorted! Being in the industry every car is prone to issues (ICE or EV). Hope that’s all it is :)

Thanks Thomas, thanks for watching and the great feedback :)
Another brilliant video from Gok! Keep em coming. 😁
On it! Thanks boss!
@@GoksCarLounge so its an EQB or a Q4 E-TRon.....Mmmmm, let me think about that one 🤣
How long did that decision take? Less than what the Q4 takes to get to 60mph I bet 🤪
Great video 😊
TESLA has been using the “get in, press the brake and just go” for ages.
Thanks Eddie! First time experiencing it, no need for buttons anymore!
Dude, loved your review. And now I'm subscribed 👊
Thanks John! Appreciated my friend 🙏🏻
Just stumbled on your review while looking for something else. One of the best, most practical car reviews i've watched recently. Subscribed.👍
Haha, did you google “handsome man reviews car?” 🤪 just kidding! Thank you mate. Appreciate the great feedback.

Thank you very much Colleen! :))
Another great video….hats off to you, again!
Thanks Tom! We have much work to do to get my bum into the Grenadier! 😍
Great video as always…. 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent! Thank you Gok!

Amazing! Glad I could help! :)
The Wife, got the Sportback; she enjoyed it. Solid build quality; no issues.
Good to hear!
Amazing review, you touched on some really solid points. I own a Tesla Model 3 which I love, but I think I'll get a Q4 next.
Hey bud, thank you very much :) much appreciated and good luck with your next purchase!
Great video !!! Awesome 👌
Thank you! 👍
Just wanna say that your intro feature regarding the brake-pedal start has been a standard in Teslas for years ;).
true... but at the time of this video i hadn't driven one.. now i have. Twice :D
Very well made…. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you very much!

Thank you mate! Appreciate you watching. Good luck :)
Getting genuine info about cars off of a genuine person is a privilege…
Thank you!!
Thank you! This was very informative.
Thank you very much :))
Amazing….. 🎉
Thanks a lot 😊
Great video
Thank you brother
Great video, well done.
Thanks Barry!
After a year would you still buy the Q4?
Im in between a new Skoda Enjay, Volvo EC40 or the Q4 Quattro Sportback.
It is still the one I would have yes. However I have not driven the others to comment on those.
I want to know what watch are you wearing? Can you write me the model..appreciate it. Thanks
Great review. 7:28 As much as the design is appealing, the lack of a rear wiper is a deal-breaker. Thankfully there are others in the Audi range that fit the bill.
Good point! Didn’t think of that, thanks for watching :)
Just go for the non-sport back Q4 which does.
"It's a Porsche". 😉
You’re not wrong
Please do a Q50 e-tron vs Mercedes EQA comparison.
Would love to but I’m a one band man so it’ll be really hard to do a head to head.
@@GoksCarLounge Understand. I shall look out for the EQA if/when you review one of those.
I used to work for Mercedes so what I can tell you is that it’s refined and comfy with decent tech, however it’s a little more expensive than it’s competition and they offer more for your money. If you want value for money I would go with others. If you have any questions let me know 👍🏼
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Good practical review....
Thank you Shahzad!
@@GoksCarLounge No worries mate prob going electric but there's so many things to consider and it's the little things ! Keep up the good work 👍
55quid to charge???
Yes mate. Hurt my heart. 0.79pkwh x 76.6kwh = £60.50 less the fact that it wasn’t “empty” hence £55 hope that made sense?

I wish they made the q4 In petrol..I prefer it look wise over the q3 sport back..But I refuse to get a electric car 😏
Electric cars are mint, you don’t know what you are missing!
You obviously haven't owned one.
If I put £55in my diesel car I travel 500 miles
Electric ( much more expensive car) 240 miles
Case closed 😂
I know… I know
For balance, I've done about 7500 miles this year at a total cost of £341.53. All data off my home charge app.
However for a company car driver it's about 1/5 of the price of a diesel
And it’ll cost twice as much as it would to cover 500 miles in an EV, not sure how often you climb into a car and drive 500 miles in one shot, but in the UK that’s going to take you the length of the entire country.
To do 500 miles in a Q4 would cost less than £12 😂
