2025 Audi Q4 e-tron set to gain more power

ISLAMABAD: Audi is preparing a wave of new electric cars starting with the 2025 Q6 e-tron, but the German automaker is also ensuring that its existing EVs don’t stagnate, announcing a host of upgrades for the Q4 e-tron crossover that has been on sale in the US since 2022.

The revisions reach European customers this fall, but we expect the new Q4 e-tron to hit the U.S. market for the 2025 model year, with the changes affecting both the standard Q4 SUV and the sleek Sportback models.

The new motor takes the base Q4 40 e-tron from a meager 201 horsepower all the way up to 282 ponies. Audi estimates a 6.7-second sprint to 62 mph, a significant improvement over the current 7.9-second run to 60 mph, while the top speed increases from 99 mph to 112 mph to match the all-wheel-drive models. The 40 model is currently rated at 265 miles of range by the EPA, which should improve to close to 300 miles when EPA range figures are announced.

The all-wheel-drive Q4 50 e-tron, meanwhile, now produces 335 horsepower, up from 295 horsepower. While Audi quotes a 5.4-second dash to 62 mph, we recorded a 5.6-second run in the outgoing model, suggesting the new motor will make the Q4 50 e-tron even quicker than Audi predicts. The 50 model is currently rated at 236 miles of range, or 242 miles for the Sportback, with noticeable range increases expected for 2025.
