Audi has recently taken a strong interest in all-electric vehicles, and the 2022 Q4 e-Tron Sportback is a result of that. The Audi Q4 e-Tron is a brand-new all-electric compact luxury crossover SUV from Audi, which went into production in March of this year. It will be available in two body styles: a normal 5-door SUV and a 5-door coupe SUV named the "Sportback." We'll be concentrating on the 2022 Audi Q4 e-Tron Sportback in this piece.

The Q4 e-Tron Sportback is likely to be available in three trim levels, similar to the current generation of Audis, which are Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige. As is the case with many contemporary Audi automobiles, the basic trim should be crammed with amenities, while higher trims bring additional convenience and quality features to the cabin.

Exterior:

As previously said, Audi's Q4 e-Tron is a brand-new automobile in the all-electric small crossover SUV sector. Its outward proportions are close to those of the Q5 compact crossover SUV, while its styling is similar to that of the Q8, Audi's upcoming mid-size premium crossover SUV. Despite the fact that the general design and proportions are likely to remain the identical, the Sportback body style will have a distinct look than the conventional SUV. It will feature a sloping roofline in the back, similar to that of a coupe, giving it a more athletic aspect. It will have disadvantages, but it will have a distinct presence on the road.

The SUV's striking appearance is complemented with muscular surfaces and an athletic attitude. Furthermore, Matrix design LED headlights with configurable daytime running light signatures are offered. From the car's settings menu, you may select one of four running light signatures. You may pick from four different color schemes, as well as the S line and black optic external parts.

Because the Audi and the ID.4 are nearly similar automobiles, the Audi is the shortest SUV among the rivals. The Mustang Mach-E has the longest wheelbase of the bunch, while the Model Y is the lightest. The Tesla is also the broadest of the SUVs on display, making it feel the most spacious on the interior. The Audi-VW twins' ride height is uncertain, however it is expected to be comparable to the Tesla Model Y. The SUV's major external features include:

• Daytime Running Headlamps with Projector Beam Auto-Leveling Auto High-Beam
• Brakelights with LEDs
• Liftgate with Power
• Rain Detecting Wipers with Heated Jets that are Speed Sensitive
• Sunroof with a Panoramic View

Interior:

The Q4 e-Tron Quattro's interior is made of recyclable materials, which is in accordance with the company's overall goal of launching an all-electric portfolio. The entire design is rather aggressive and crisp, which may not be to everyone's taste. However, it does appear to be somewhat distinctive.

The inside area is equivalent to that of Audi's compact SUV, the Q5. The materials utilized and the overall construction quality should meet or exceed expectations. The instrument panel is purposefully angled toward the driver to offer the driver a better sensation of control over the car, and the design is very driver-focused.

The interior measurements of the Q4 e-Tron Sportback have yet to be revealed by Audi, but the Sportback shape will undoubtedly have less headroom in the back, as well as some load space compromises, as seen by the expected stats. The following are some of the inside characteristics of the 2022 Audi Q4 e-Tron Sportback that stand out:

• A new flat-top and bottom steering wheel with capacitive hands-on sensing has been devised.
• Mobile device charging and storage area in the console
• In the cargo space, there is a load floor that may be customized.
• A recycled-materials-based interior

Performance:

It is believed to be available with two electric motors and Audi's famed Quattro AWD powertrain. The two electric motors combine to provide a maximum estimated output of 220 kW or 295 horsepower, which is more than enough power for most individuals.

A single battery design with a new capacity of 77 kWh stores and provides power. The SUV may be charged with alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC) at varying rates; up to 11 kW AC and up to 125 kW DC on a high-speed charger. The optional onboard heat pump controls the climate in the interior using waste heat from the high-voltage modules and ambient air for optimal and efficient energy utilization.

As previously stated, the 2022 Q4 e-Tron Sportback will be fitted with Audi's renowned Quattro AWD technology for efficient power delivery to the road. Furthermore, the high-voltage battery is placed between the axles to increase the car's dynamic stability, ensuring a low center of gravity and a balanced weight distribution for controlled and responsive handling.

The suspension system consists of a McPherson front axle and a five-link rear suspension. Furthermore, the drive and suspension control systems function in tandem, giving the driver a variety of driving profiles to select from. Efficiency, Comfort, Dynamic, and Individual driving profiles are among the options. Although it appears to be pretty promising, it is too early to analyze the car's handling qualities and how it will perform in the real world because it has not yet been launched on the market.

There is currently no official information on the Q4 e-Tron Sportback's mileage numbers. However, according to Audi, the entry-level Q4 e-Tron can only go 250 miles on a full charge, which may be sufficient for daily commutes but is insufficient for lengthy travels, especially when there are cars in the same sector that provide higher mileage.

Safety:

Because the Q4 e-Tron has yet to be released, it has not yet been subjected to NHTSA and IIHS crash testing, but we are certain that it will pass with flying colors, just like its brothers. Audi will, however, include a significant number of basic safety features, which will be supplemented by a wide range of driver assistance aids that will not only make driving easier but also safer for the driver and passengers. Among the most important safety elements are:

• Automated Emergency Braking and Forward Collision Warning
• Rear Cross-Traffic Alert with Blind-Spot Monitoring
• Semi-autonomous driving mode with adaptive cruise control
• Audi Connect Care SOS is an emergency service provided by Audi.
• Warning of Lane Departure
• Plus Audi Parking System
