Audi has revealed the first sketches of its Q4 e-tron concept ahead of the car’s debut at next month’s Geneva motor show.
UPDATED: Audi reveals Q4 E-tron electric SUV ahead of 2020 on sale date
It isn’t yet clear if this concept is a direct preview of the Q4, which is due to launch later this year and has already been spotted in camouflage undergoing winter testing. However, it does provide an insight into the next generation of electric Audis following the Audi E-tron SUV and E-tron GT sports saloon.
The sketches reveal a compact SUV with coupé-like styling, an expansive front grille and illuminated e-tron branding on the front bumper and side sills.
It seems to have traditional door mirrors, instead of the digital cameras and interior touchscreens offered on the E-tron SUV. Audi’s Matrix LED headlights also appear to feature.
An interior sketch shows a driver-focused dashboard that borrows elements from the recently launched new Audi Q3, with buttons largely removed in favour of touch-sensitive screens and panels.
The Q4 e-tron is expected to make production in early 2021, a year after the standard Q4 is due on sale.

Apologies, it’s all a terrible mistake
these images were meant to go to Tonka toys not Autocar and were done for the designer’s ten year old.

Which is why everyone is amazed at the Honda urban.
Seriously, get a grip. Geneva is going to be crammed to the rafters of things like this.

Bored.
Car designers seem to come up with crazy, unrealistic concepts and mostly, by the time they reach the shop, they are average cars like the rest of the fleet.
This is going to be the same story. Slowly the unrealistic features will get toned down until you get an electric Q4.
