Audi Sets Sights on Electric Era With Q4 E-Tron Concept

Published: April 2, 2019 | By: American Luxury Staff

Audi took to this year’s Geneva Motor Show to show off their newest bit of EV flash: the Q4 E-Tron concept. The German automaker’s newest electric is a crossover that looks like it will compete favorably with other European offerings.

Although many luxury brands are just now featuring mild-hybrid vehicles, Audi is no stranger to all-electric tech; the Q4 E-Tron will be the automaker’s fifth electric vehicle if it enters production.

The Q4 E-Tron’s electric platform is powered by an 82-kWh battery and two electric motors, giving the Q4 concept power ratings of 302 hp and 339 lb-ft of torque. It also features a custom color unique to it, at least for the time being. The gray-blue paint shade is called “Solar Sky,” and was developed to reflect sunlight. It has an almost iridescent look, and appears to change shades depending on the quality and intensity of light.

If all goes according to plan, a production model of the Q4 E-Tron Concept should hit dealerships in 2021.
