Audi Q4 e-tron motors
The MY2027 Audi Q4 e-tron uses rear-wheel-drive and dual-motor quattro drivetrains with outputs from 150 to 250 kW.
Looking for the earlier drivetrain? The former Q4 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55 model names are covered in Q4 e-tron variants up to MY2026.
The updated Audi Q4 e-tron and Q4 Sportback e-tron use four drivetrain levels. Availability and model names differ by market.
| Drivetrain | Drive | Maximum output | Battery |
|---|---|---|---|
| Entry | Rear-wheel drive | 150 kW | 63 kWh gross / 59 kWh usable |
| Performance | Rear-wheel drive | 210 kW | 82 kWh gross / 77 kWh usable |
| Quattro | All-wheel drive | 220 kW | 82 kWh gross / 77 kWh usable |
| Quattro performance | All-wheel drive | 250 kW | 82 kWh gross / 77 kWh usable |
Rear-wheel drive
All versions use a permanently excited synchronous motor in one of two power levels on the rear axle. The updated APP350 drive unit has new power electronics with silicon-carbide semiconductors and revised software. Audi says these measures improve drivetrain efficiency by about ten percent compared with the preceding version.
The 150 kW version prioritizes affordability and everyday efficiency, while the 210 kW performance version combines higher output with the larger battery. Audi quotes up to 592 km WLTP for the Q4 Sportback e-tron performance.
Quattro all-wheel drive
Quattro versions add a second electric motor at the front axle. The front motor, rated at up to 134 Nm, is activated when the car needs additional traction or power; during efficient cruising, most propulsion comes from the rear axle. The two current system outputs are 220 and 250 kW.
Electric motor output can be limited by battery state of charge, battery temperature and thermal protection. The maximum figure therefore describes output available under suitable operating conditions, not a constant output at every charge level.
