Had the Model Y. Its aggressive unadjustable regen launched me into a snowy ditch full of boulders. Now have the Q4 e-tron with Quattro. Got it for the same price as MY. WORLD of difference.

Fully agree, it’s so obvious… of course if you mus save 10 to 20 k (which I understand, I’d rather take a Kia EV6)

I won't pay over 50k € for a car with rear drum brakes. And I say this as an Audi A5 owner which was genuinely interested in the etron Q4 until I saw reviews of the first version showcasing that and other problems.

[@johndoyle4723]

@@Buran01 Lots of EVs have rear drum brakes deliberately as they are better suited to the car. The brakes do not get much use due to the regen and discs would corrode and seize, seems wrong ,but there is a reason.

[@Buran01]

@@johndoyle4723 That seems right for a Dacia, but at some price tags things that won't cut. The thing is that everyone knowns that the Golf 8 had massive quality cuts (in things like hard plastic, bad seats, tactile haptic buttons instead of mechanical ones... ) despite a rise in price, and the Q4 is built in the same platform as the ID3/ID4 which share similar cost cuts.

[@MaxPro9127]

Agreed Tesla build quality is a nightmare

[@dimi476]

This video is a bit out of date already in the sense that (in Germany at least) you often find top speced Q4 etron at the same price (or lower!) Than à MY LR. We're talking second hand, ex company cars. There's quite a bit of those now. I might still go MY but a lot of them don't have USS anymore which is a big no no. Especially before a MY refresh. Don't want to be stuck with the worst MY generation. So I might actually go for one of these top Q4 40.

[@leomania]

I've got to say, Sam, that I don't follow some of your comparisons between vehicles. A Tesla Model 3 or Y is not as high-end of a car as an Audi, so you'd expect there to be a price difference between them. You wouldn't compare two ICE vehicles based upon their range as the most important criteria. Tesla's engineering and their ability to quickly drive down costs of EVs is nothing short of amazing, but that doesn't mean buyers don't want more than their vehicles offer. For people interested in long-distance driving with their EV, the supercharger network is what's most compelling about a Tesla. Hassle-free compared to the third-party charging companies.

[@yorkyone2143]

EV's that make noise when driving are mandatory in Europe. It's a pedestrian safety measure. If you can hear it coming you are less likely to walk out in front of it when crossing the road.

[@MarkAZ001]

IF they hear it, the pedestrians don't even hear buses, trams or trains as they keep walking into them... It could at least sound like a "normal" car.

[@Mark-oq9fl]

We leased a Q4 today. My wife has a some permanent neck issues that make her more sensitive to road feel than the average bear. The Tesla Y was a complete non-starter. The Hyundai head rest did not work well enough for her to do a test drive. VW ID 4 was a solid no. Volvo was a yes. The 2024 Q4 and 2022 Etron were a yeeesssss. We went with the Q4 for a number of reasons. Suspension. Seat design. Seat materials. These things all mattered. It doesn't matter how great the battery etc. are if I can't get her to buy it.

[@CiderHerrljunga]

i have the id.4 and the comfort of the chassis and the car itself is great. not a sports car by any means but a really mice car to drive

[@alianjum3802]

How is it over humps? And potholes?

[@brianstevenson9967]

The battery protection is simply a function within the software that automatically will limit the charging to 80% which is the recommendation for all pre lfp battery EV’s to extend battery life unless the owner switches it off. This is only a function which can be switched off as charging to 100% will on occasion be required. It is not a detrimental function it is merely an extra function available on VWG MEB platform cars.

[@leem5894]

Sam, you can't compare Q4 etron to bmw iX, it's more comparable to BMW iX1

[@mkrgoede]

No it is more comparable to the iX3

[@paganizondar1295]

@mkrgoede Nah the Q6 E-Tron is comparable to the IX3, the Q4 E-Tron is comparable to the IX1.

[@isham16]

A little correction Sam : it’s possible to charge 100% if wished

[@Christopherschoss]

Q4 is not a conpetitor of the iX. For this you would consider the Q8 e-tron.

[@TIFFandDRETV]

Great review. I own the 2021 etron and my Audi dealer called me to make an offer to buy my etron. I wondered why they want to buy my car. Probably to get me to buy the new q4 etron. That’s not going to happen. In short, I love my etron. There are a few things I don’t like, but I’m satisfied. I purchased used also.

[@razakaze]

In Denmark it comes with the Sonos audio without paying a premium, and that is a big difference from the other EV’s. 10 speakers and a subwoofer

[@22pcirish]

Ordered on for delivery next year. (After much research into other EV’s)

[@gregp.7148]

All EVs today should have LFP batteries that you can charge to 100% without degradation and haul significantly less weight around compared to lithium ion where you're only supposed to charge to 80-90%. You'll get a bit less range, but 90% of the people will still have plenty of range.

[@csjrogerson2377]

You must have failed easy maths at school. LFP batteries are less energy dense by a significant margin compared to Li NCA or Li NMC (38-47%). Energy non availability in Li NCA and Li NMC batteries is 90/10 or 80/10 depending on the manufacturers recommendations. Therefore the LFP batteries can NEVER save battery mass. Energy availability wrt battery mass, range and charge time is ALWAYS an issue with BEV and the main reason why ppl who move large amounts of goods/passengers or travel long distances will never go EV until its as good as diesel.

[@yvesvandenbroek6055]

The reason you need to charge LFP to 100% is that otherwise the BMS has a hard time to calculate the real energy stored, due to lower cell voltage.If you do not charge to 100% regularl, you could run empty at 10% for example. You will see about the same battery degradation as NMC … lets wait for the real LFP data, degradation will be just a little better than NMC, but not by much. Why, calendar aging is the main degradation part … so yes it can handle more charges before charge degradation kicks in, but int the end there is not much difference.

[@isham16]

Just for information: there is no 80% charge restriction, you can decide to what level you want to recharge.

[@RajaMinhas]

Hi, I have seen loads of videos about q4 & most people speak very high about the audi q4, and these models 45 & 55 are most improved. Have you seen how much you people have lost in deprecation of those cars you recommended, I feel you have something against Audi. You are very informative & and I felt you weren't very neutral. Audi all the way, never been disappointed from audi cars 5th Audi owned from new, The best car manufacturer. By the way, adaptive cruises countrol is standard. I'm not sure if it is the same in the US. I have nothing against your video & respect your views. KEEP IT UP. THANK YOU 😊

[@WiseMaverick]

it is std in US with thr newer models from 2024. the chip shortage had a role to play in this feature being absent in many of earlier Audi models , including the ICE cars.

[@ONI1013.]

You should be comparing the regular Audi E-tron (or Audi Q8 E-Tron) for closest comparable sizes to the Model Y.

[@ISuperTed]

Nearly bought one in 2021 in UK. Problem was they were quoting 6 months delivery and it kept moving back and back so cancelled. Nice car but it’s a bit bland and still expensive.

[@unmatort]

Optimized thermal management on the motor should mean less heat energy is produced in the motor for the same amount of electricity fed to it, which should kick back to range improvements

[@onesky8647]

It's an Audi, what did we expect? :)

[@BMH1965]

Latest research suggest charging only from 10-36% to get maximum battery life (about 18 years). Although the data is moderated to recommend charging levels to be kept between 30-70% for realistic use.

[@spiritualdeath101]

*Audi LED Matrix headlights* Based on DMD technology (digital micromirror device) used in many video projectors. At its heart is a small chip containing one million micromirrors, each of whose edge length measures just a few hundredths of a millimeter. With the help of electrostatic fields, each individual micromirror can be tilted up to 5,000 times per second. Depending on the setting, the LED light is either directed via the lenses onto the road or is absorbed in order to mask out areas of the light beam. [taken from Audi media centre]

[@spiritualdeath101]

If you haven't driven this car - what *is* your opinion worth ? The compactness of the Q4 e-tron is a strong selling point if you have narrow roads like we have in the UK. The q4 also offers the LED matrix headlights which are unique. If this was car was cheaper I would already have one.

[@paull3179]

I had a loaner and was very impressed. I only buy Audis and Porsches. The big advantage is the battery will never need replacement and the dealers can repair and change cells. Not as fast as my other cars but enough power with the awd.

Audi is a luxury car brand so you expect them to be expensive. Their ICE cars are more expensive than other ICE cars. I can’t afford one, but if people want it and can afford it then go for it. I would rather people drove EVs than ICE cars.

[@poney3839]

They're trying to justify the price difference. Marketing guys at work...but it doesn't really matter because the 10-80% charging time is actually identical thanks to a flater profile on the 135kW version...again just marketing tricks.

No Qi wireless charging, still has buttons ALL OVER for various things. I mean all of the audio playing/tuning is on the screen but to turn the volume up you have to reach across the shifter to the center console to turn it up. Really? As to power its slow.

I used to think that too, but while Tesla used to be years ahead of the competition, they just gave that away. Its taken way too much time and they are still stuck with just 4 models. Just 4 models without much evolution. European car makers already lost that competition, but now, a few years later, the classic German brands are just making better cars, nicer looks, better interior, more refined driving and with similar tech as a Tesla. Tesla will not survive if they can only compete by lowering prices. They have to come up with something new quickly. Volkswagen, the company that is supposed to be in a real crisis, is actually fixing the problems they had (mostly software) and the press that was so negative about every new MEB model is now praising these upgraded models. Volkswagen already knows how to build cars. If they also get grip on the software part it will be very difficult for Tesla to compete, at least in Europe.

[@3204clivesinclair]

EV's have been around longer than gas powered ICE vehicles. Whats changed? Not much really. Battery, electric motors, wheel at each corner and one to steer the vehicle.

[@kiranvanderelst8907]

Comparable car to bmw ix? I don’t think so. IX is far above

[@steveoconnell3228]

I don't see Audi as a luxury brand, I had a A3 and it was basic to say the least and no better than a cheaper ford

[@Splendid_Lad]

LOL, an A3 is not a good representation of the brand.

Until they get NACS it’s a no Bueno…

[@ttkddry]

Sure.. Then why is Tesla using the European CCS Combo 2 connector in Europe instead of trying to push NACS?

[@CupidinColorado]

Not sure, perhaps Europe has its own issues…

[@ttkddry]

@@CupidinColorado yes Europe has 230 Volts instead of 110 V. So why bother with NACS? It offers no superior properties in the developed world...

[@ianlott237]

For the price it’s pretty crap

[@francisdebriey3609]

The only decent EVs from the VW group are from Porsche (the Taycan and the upcoming Macan) and from Skoda (the Eniaq). Nothing else. All the rest is either too expensive in its segment, or crap... or both.

[@Hakltz]

The interior is waaaay too complicated…yikes.

[@williamgrunzweig571]

Not impressed. Its not just about the car. Its about the whole process from buying to servicing, to upgrading if desired. As a whole this is just a bad buy when there is a clear alternative that is just better. Sorry not sorry.

[@Jackie-Brown]

I still don’t know why Audi exists in VWs portfolio. Low end/mainstream= VW. High end = Porsche. Where does Audi sit? They’re literally for VW customers who aren’t smart buyers. There isn’t a car they make that beats or equals their competition. Would you buy a gussied up Audi over a BMW or Benz that doesn’t come from a VW Tiguan. At least u don’t get a cheap platform upsold by $10k+. They should be more compared to Acura and Infiniti and Volvo.

I cant get over that etron means trud in English... check it out for yourself

[@Mega66stang]

They suck l have a 2022 and don’t have a long enough range @ 200 miles @ 80 percent 🤬

[@varunkaushik3329]

You need to get out of numbers and drive it. Tesla drives like an untamed horse on steroids with no comfort. This car is pure German refined driving experience. I don’t agree with your assessment. This car is the best electric out there in the mid segment.

[@TheTZSoftware]

Sam, don‘t compare cars just on paper - that is useless

[@eric-u]

BMW ix is not AUD$85k

[@Underhills]

Range range range. We're still at peak range with EV's. There seems to be little to no progress and the years are ticking. To top it off there's also peak battery and no alternative sources to find production materials. This may very well be the downfall of the EV - yet again. William Morrison, who developed the very first EV back in in 1890-91, must be smirking in his grave. EV's have come and gone for well over 100 years now, we always return to fossil fuel.

[@Adrian-uq9mq]

have you ever heard of get to the point and stop waffling

[@tonymcflattie2450]

Tesla doesn’t even have blended brake pedal. Cheap junk

[@eric-u]

Stop being a Tesla Fanboy!
