Quick Answer: The 2026 Audi Q4 e-tron at a Glance
Audi's compact electric SUV comes in two 2026 trims, Premium from $50,600 MSRP and Premium Plus from $55,100, before a $1,395 destination charge. Each trim offers a choice of powertrain: the single-motor Q4 45 e-tron (282 hp, rear-wheel drive, up to 288 miles of EPA-estimated range) or the dual-motor Q4 55 e-tron quattro (335 hp, all-wheel drive, 258 miles). Every 2026 Q4 e-tron gets a panoramic sunroof, leather seating, and Audi Signature Care, complimentary scheduled maintenance for 3 years or 30,000 miles. One 2026 change worth knowing up front: the old Prestige trim is gone, its head-up display and matrix headlights now live in a $2,500 Vision package on the Premium Plus. Both trims are in stock at Audi Queens on College Point Blvd in Flushing.
Total price, including every dealer-imposed charge: $52,170 all in for the Q4 e-tron Premium. That total includes the $1,395 destination charge and the $175 documentation fee (an optional dealer charge, not a New York State or DMV fee) on top of a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $50,600; it excludes state and local taxes, title, registration, and any optional equipment.
An EV built for a borough with no driveways
Queens is a tough audience for an electric car. Most drivers here don't have a garage with a 240-volt outlet waiting for them; they have a spot on the street, a co-op garage, or a shared driveway. The Q4 e-tron's answer is speed at the public charger rather than convenience at home: up to 175 kW of DC fast charging takes the battery from 10% to 80% in about 28 minutes, which is a coffee break, not an errand. Audi Queens sits right off the Whitestone Expressway at 30-35 College Point Blvd in Flushing, close enough to the LIE, the Van Wyck, and the bridges into Manhattan and Brooklyn that a Q4 owner can plan a charging stop the same way they'd plan a gas fill-up, just less often. The cabin, meanwhile, feels like an Audi first and an EV second: a 10.25-inch virtual cockpit plus digital gauge cluster flows into an 11.6-inch MMI touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the panoramic sunroof is standard on every trim.
The store itself runs sales, finance, service, parts, and a collision center from one building, with a team that works in English, Spanish, Mandarin, and more. Audi Queens keeps its Q4 e-tron inventory posted live, which matters for an EV where configuration (powertrain, wheel size, packages) changes both the price and the real-world range.
Two powertrains, one decision that actually matters
Unlike Audi's gas SUVs, the Q4 e-tron's biggest fork in the road isn't the trim, it's the motor. The Q4 45 e-tron sends 282 horsepower to the rear wheels alone and is the range champion of the lineup at up to 288 miles EPA-estimated (115 combined MPGe). Step up to the Q4 55 e-tron quattro and you get a second motor up front, 335 horsepower, genuine all-wheel-drive grip for icy on-ramps, and a 0-60 sprint of 5.0 seconds instead of 6.3, but range drops to 258 miles (97 combined MPGe) because moving two motors costs more energy than moving one. Both use the same 82-kWh battery pack. That upgrade costs about $5,400 regardless of trim: $50,600 to $56,000 on Premium, $55,100 to $60,500 on Premium Plus. Neither number is wrong for "the Q4 e-tron" — they're just answering a different question, RWD efficiency versus AWD traction, and the trim guides below spell out what else changes at each level.

What Q4 e-tron buyers say about the store
The virtual cockpit plus and MMI touch display share the Q4 e-tron's dashboard.
Audi Queens holds 4.5 stars across more than 1,250 Google reviews, and its EV buyers write some of the most detailed ones in the archive. One 2022 Q4 e-tron owner who bought this spring called the process "genuinely great," crediting a sales specialist who "answered every question I had, was upfront about everything, and kept the whole process moving without any pressure" (Jeff M.). Another customer, five years into ownership of a Q4 as a daily driver, still returns for check-ups and put it simply: "Big reason I stick with Audi is Audi Queens" (Manny L.), naming both his service advisor and the sales team who sold him the car.
Read enough of these and the pattern is consistent: shoppers name the specific person who helped them, EV-specific questions get straight answers instead of a shrug, and people come back for their second and third Audi. That matters more with an electric car, where trust in the dealership's know-how carries extra weight.
Owning one here
Every 2026 Q4 e-tron includes Audi Signature Care, complimentary scheduled maintenance for 3 years or 30,000 miles, on top of a 4-year/50,000-mile vehicle warranty and an 8-year/100,000-mile battery warranty. The Q4 e-tron service & repair guide covers what EV ownership actually looks like week to week (hint: no oil changes) and where to charge around the borough. Money questions, from the $1,395 destination charge to New York's 8.875% sales tax to federal EV incentives, live in the pricing & leasing guide.
Frequently asked questions
What is the real range of the Q4 e-tron?
288 miles EPA-estimated on the Q4 45 e-tron (RWD), 258 miles on the Q4 55 e-tron quattro (AWD). Cold weather, highway speeds, and cabin heat all reduce real-world range on any EV, so treat the EPA figure as a best-case number and plan charging stops with some margin, especially in a New York winter.
What changed on the 2026 Audi Q4 e-tron?
The Prestige trim is gone; the lineup is now Premium and Premium Plus. Prestige's signature features, matrix-design LED headlights, headlight washers, animated lighting, and the augmented reality head-up display, moved into a new $2,500 Vision package available on the Q4 55 e-tron Premium Plus. Premium Plus also picked up Park Assist Plus, a surround-view camera, and SONOS audio as standard, and every 2026 Audi now includes Audi Signature Care.
How much is the Audi Q4 e-tron 2026?
$50,600 to $60,500 MSRP depending on trim and powertrain, plus the $1,395 destination charge and any options. That undercuts a comparable gas Q5 and most of its German-badged EV rivals, which is exactly why it keeps showing up on "why is this so cheap" searches; the honest answer is that Audi priced it to compete with mainstream EVs, not just other luxury brands. Current offers are posted on the Audi Queens specials page.
What's the difference between Premium and Premium Plus?
Roughly $4,500 to $4,900 depending on powertrain, buying a surround-view camera, Park Assist Plus, SONOS audio, power-folding mirrors, a hands-free liftgate, and interior storage upgrades. Premium Plus is also the only trim where the Vision package (the old Prestige's headlight tech and head-up display) is available, and the only trim offered with the optional Sport package on the 55 e-tron.
Is the Audi Q4 e-tron a good car against a Tesla?
It's a different kind of good. A Model Y typically out-ranges and out-accelerates a Q4 45 e-tron for similar money, but the Q4 counters with a more traditional luxury cabin, real buttons for climate control, Audi's dealer-service network (including this store's own collision center), and a Signature Care plan that covers three years of maintenance outright. Buyers who value the driving experience and in-person service tend to prefer the Audi; buyers chasing maximum range per dollar often look elsewhere.
Can I charge my Q4 e-tron at a Tesla Supercharger?
Increasingly yes: many newer Q4 e-trons ship with a NACS charging port or a NACS adapter that unlocks Tesla's Supercharger network in addition to the standard CCS public network. Confirm the charging hardware on the specific vehicle you're considering, since it can vary by production date; the sales team at Audi Queens can check a given VIN before you buy.

Key handover at Audi Queens, College Point Blvd.
Specs on a page only get you so far with an EV; the way a Q4 e-tron accelerates off a light or handles a highway on-ramp is worth feeling in person. The Flushing showroom keeps both trims on the floor alongside the dealership's certified pre-owned Audi stock. Book a test drive through the contact page and drive the 45 and 55 back to back before deciding which range-versus-power trade-off fits your commute.
