I really can't understand why this video discounts the 35 option. It only does 200 miles. For me that's something I'll probably do 2 or 3 times a year. Would I drive 300 miles without stopping usually? No! Horses for courses I guess.
Wrong... The market for BEVs is as diverse as consumers for petrol cars. Some brands may excel at range but at the expense of harsh ride and a subpar service network. Others want to customise a car to their liking and not have limited colors and options. The whole selling point for BEVs was you can 'fuel-up' at home and for many a 200 AER is more than sufficient for most homes. Why place an over-emphasis on range if I only need it once or twice a year for a holiday trip? Reliability ranks at the top of the list for most consumers and waiting weeks/months for a repair (routine or accident) window is unacceptable for many spending $50K+ for a BEV. The upstart BEV manufacturer looks good primarily because it builds ONLY 4 distinct vehicles in larger volumes. The VW Group is building exponentially more distinct BEV vehicles off 2-4 BEV architectures (with even more ACTUALLY coming over the next 2 years). Choice is king!!!
When the penny drops and consumers realize 100% production full autonomous driving is decades away, consumers will rethink what brands offer the best overall value and not be teased on technology they were promised but was never realized during their BEV ownership.
@@chrispnw2547 why not just say EV instead of trying to be clever by saying BEV, as if you think you know something others dont. My goodness cant people just talk normally without trying to show off all the time these days ?

However to get a family sized Tesla model Y is a minimum £55,000 so it’s out of reach of 99% of the population. A £45,000 version of the Q4 is still expensive but is manageable on finance for a lot more people. It’s pointless to say a model at lot more expensive has better tech etc - of course it does.
Thank you for the really informative review. Far better then any I watched before I ordered mine as a company car in November 2021. I’ve just been informed today that there is an unconfirmed build date of end of September, meaning the earliest I can expect delivery is end of November 2022, but that is likely to be pushed back further. Anyway, at least your review has done nothing to diminish my enthusiasm for it.
Me too - ordered October now estimated end of October 2022 for deliver (but at least mine says confirmed build!). Not really expecting to get it this year. Got it really as it was cheaper than an Enyaq on my company scheme for a comparable spec!
@@robertmaxwell5829 I am enjoying, it thanks. It arrived mid-October 2022 and I’ve now done 23,000 miles in it. Range is good, with regular trips from Oxfordshire to Newcastle and Northumberland being stress free due to the excellent charging network up the M1 and A1M. It’s comfortable and offers as much luggage space as my BMW 520d X-drive Touring did. The spec is great, but then I did tick a lot of options on top of the standard S-Line spec. If you’re considering one, it’s worthwhile putting it on your shortlist.
Amazing content and thanks for sharing. I must say that the way the person presenting speaks, kind of made me go back to uni days listening to speakers and professors, and at times I found myself completely shutting off. Probably a more "up to times" speach and narrative would be an improvement in these reviews.
My old BMW X1 has done 140k miles and I'm really interested in the Audi Q4 e-tron. But they start at £51k OTR. I can get a nice Subaru XV - which gives me the 'pothole-handling' I need for £30k. I simply cannot justify the £20,000 price difference. Too much.
Hello sir I have enjoyed your program !!!! Right now I have 2020 01 Audi Q3 3 years finance it will finsh by in September 10th 2023 and I'm thinking returning Q3 getting Q4 e-tron half electric and half petrol. Normally I would do just under 1000 km in your opinion I should by Q4 e - tron? Please advise me which Q4 is good I don't mind S line pay extra. Thank you so much I live in Ireland:)

Lol that ix3 is not even a dedicated ev platform. It’s slower, has less interior space and as always with any bmw it looks like it’s designed by a bunch of toddlers.
Could you please update this with the 2024 model please.
Please can you review the 24 version given its supposed improvements?
We'll pass your suggestion onto the team 👍

Sportback any day.
Interested in going electric with this model?
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply had a Gyser blue sptbk on order since Aug 21, still waiting.
Everyone can afford 80k... posh and good! tut tut
The Volkswagen electric platform is just not good enough. Range, charging speed, and technology would have been adequate 5 years ago, but not now.

Drum brakes at the rear wheels are ugly and a wrong cutback. I would go for a BMW.
With regenerative braking you barely need brakes at all!
Enjoy not being let out at junctions 😂😂
I was so disappointed when I tried this - doesn’t feel like an Audi at all!
I never thought I’d say this about an Audi, but that interior looks positively cheap and nasty.
I had one on subscription. It really is bad. Hard plastics even on top of the doors. Safe to say it returned after a month.

Ordered August 2021, estimate delivery August 2022
Thanks for watching Anthony, glad you found our review informative. Hope you enjoy your new Q4 e-tron (when it eventually arrives!)
Me too - ordered October now estimated end of October 2022 for deliver (but at least mine says confirmed build!). Not really expecting to get it this year. Got it really as it was cheaper than an Enyaq on my company scheme for a comparable spec!
Still enjoying the q4 ????

I thought the Ioniq 5 and EV6 would be considered direct rivals for this vehicle?

The Cupra Born is more or less the same car as the VW ID.3 and thus not directly comparable with Q4 etron, ID.4 and Enyaq.
Nit picking and then some! 😂😂

Hi I'm not looking for finance advice for buying a new audi Q4 for batter value for money
I'm interested in Q4 half electric and half petrol
No way! Cheaper build quality, loud, horrible seats… speaking about the Audi, of course.
Lol that ix3 is not even a dedicated ev platform. It’s slower, has less interior space and as always with any bmw it looks like it’s designed by a bunch of toddlers.
It’s all about opinions. No need for the put down. Thank you. Now if we were comparing the e tron, fair enough.
The seats are better than rivals I've sat in 😜
