    4 days ago

    by Michael Gauthier The facelifted Q4 Sportback e-tron has been spied in Europe. It sports new bumpers, a revised grille, and an updated interior. Model will likely have an improved powertrain and extra range. Audi is wrapping up testing on the facelifted Q4 e-tron as spy photographers have snapped a Sportback prototype virtually undisguised. It looks instantly recognizable, but incorporates a number of updates. Starting up front, we can see a lightly revised grille that is flanked by familiar headlights. They’re joined by a new bumper, which has updated air curtains as well as a revamped intake with a honeycomb mesh pattern.

The faux vent has also been removed, while there are new triangular accents at the outside edges. Elsewhere, we can see a new diffuser with more pronounced vertical elements. The head- and taillights have varying degrees of camouflage, suggesting we can expect updated lighting units. We also wouldn’t be surprised to find restyled wheels and some other minor tweaks. Spy photographers didn’t snap interior pictures this time around, but previous images have shown an all-new dashboard with a freestanding curved display. It appears to echo the one found in newer models such as the A6 and Q5. This means we can expect an 11.9-inch digital instrument cluster and a 14.5-inch infotainment system. They could be joined by an optional 10.9-inch front passenger display. Powertrain details remain elusive, but the model will likely benefit from more efficient motors, improved batteries, and upgraded charging technology. This should help to make the Q4 e-tron more competitive, which is important as the model has lost a lot of its luster since the Q6 e-tron arrived. While specifics are few and far between, the current model features a 77 kWh battery pack as well as rear- and dual-motor all-wheel drive systems. The former produces 282 hp (210 kW / 286 PS), while the latter develops a combined output of 335 hp (250 kW / 340 PS). Customers can also expect ranges of between 258 and 288 miles (415 – 463 km).
