Audi Ireland has announced a significant upgrade to the Audi Q4 e-tron, enhancing the brand’s electric bestseller with improved efficiency, faster charging, advanced digital technology and greater everyday usability for Irish drivers. As one of Audi’s most popular electric vehicles, the Q4 e-tron has received a comprehensive update both inside and out. The refreshed model features sharper exterior styling, upgraded lighting technology and a redesigned, more digital-focused interior. Improvements to range and charging performance also further enhance practicality for daily commuting and longer journeys across Ireland. The Q4 e-tron also becomes the first Audi model to support bidirectional charging and Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) technology. This allows owners to power external electrical devices directly from the vehicle and potentially integrate the car into compatible home energy storage systems, a feature likely to become increasingly relevant as more Irish households adopt solar panels and renewable energy solutions.
Inside, Audi’s new digital stage takes centre stage, combining an 11.9-inch digital instrument display with a 12.8-inch MMI touchscreen. An optional 12-inch passenger display with customisable standby functionality further enhances the in-car experience. Audi’s latest One Connected Infotainment system also introduces expanded connectivity and entertainment features, including a voice-controlled Audi assistant capable of operating vehicle functions and responding to driver queries. Integrated ChatGPT functionality allows for more natural interaction with the vehicle and improved access to information while on the move. Comfort and practicality have also been enhanced with a redesigned centre console, dynamic interaction lighting and dual cooled wireless smartphone charging trays offering up to 15W charging power. A new Softwrap dashboard design stretches across the width of the cabin, creating a more premium and spacious feel throughout the interior.
Lighting technology has also been upgraded significantly. At the front, segmented digital LED daytime running lights allow drivers to personalise lighting signatures through the MMI system, while second-generation digital OLED rear lights improve visibility and safety while giving the Q4 e-tron a more distinctive road presence. The updated Audi Q4 e-tron will continue to be offered in SUV body style with a choice of battery sizes and drivetrain configurations. Irish pricing will start from €51,980.
Commenting on the upgraded Audi Q4 e-tron, Christian Gussen, Brand Director of Audi Ireland, said:
“The Audi Q4 e-tron has become one of our most important electric models for Irish drivers, and these latest upgrades further strengthen its appeal across performance, technology and everyday usability. With improved range, faster charging capabilities and the introduction of bidirectional charging technology for the first time in an Audi model, the Q4 e-tron is perfectly positioned for customers looking to make electric driving fit seamlessly into their daily lives. As more Irish households embrace renewable energy and electric mobility, we are excited to see the upgraded Audi Q4 e-tron arrive on Irish roads later this year.”
