TrueCar confirms new Q4 e-tron inventory ranging from $57,140 to $68,780 across Premium and Premium Plus configurations currently at dealers nationwide. The Q4 e-tron is Audi’s entry-level electric SUV, available in two distinct powertrain families: the 45 with a single rear motor and rear-wheel drive producing 201 horsepower and up to 265 miles of EPA-estimated range, and the 55 quattro with dual motors and all-wheel drive producing 295 horsepower and up to 245 miles of EPA-estimated range. The Q4 e-tron is also available as a Sportback with a sloping fastback roofline at a modest premium over the standard SUV body. The federal $7,500 EV purchase credit was permanently eliminated by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act signed July 4, 2025, and does not apply to purchases made after September 30, 2025. The Q4 e-tron competes against the Tesla Model Y, BMW iX1, Mercedes-Benz EQB, Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Kia EV6.

Audi does not publish dealer invoice pricing or holdback structures, consistent with every luxury brand in this guide series. On the 2026 Q4 e-tron, the invoice-to-MSRP gap typically runs approximately $2,000 to $3,000 depending on configuration, based on Audi’s established luxury EV invoice structure. The invoice figure is your negotiating anchor, not the window sticker.
Audi’s dealer holdback adds roughly 2 to 3 percent of base MSRP back to the dealer after each vehicle sells, which on a $61,795 Premium Plus 55 quattro with destination represents approximately $1,236 to $1,854 in additional margin beneath the invoice figure. TrueCar’s 71 confirmed new Q4 e-tron listings nationally is a relatively modest count for a luxury EV. Fewer units mean slightly less dealer motivation than on higher-volume vehicles, though the EV segment’s current pricing environment creates offsetting buyer leverage. Getting competing quotes from multiple local Audi dealers before visiting any of them is the most reliable path to finding motivated pricing on current Q4 e-tron inventory.
KBB live listings on current dealer inventory confirm the average price paid for Premium configurations at $61,150 to $61,745 with destination and options, and Premium Plus configurations at $63,045 to $67,390 depending on option loading. The wide spread on Premium Plus configurations reflects the significant option packages available on the Q4 e-tron that can substantially increase the as-delivered price beyond base MSRP. For buyers targeting base-to-lightly-optioned configurations, a fair market price of $57,000 to $61,000 on the Premium 55 quattro with destination reflects competitive pricing for buyers who gather competing dealer quotes before visiting any showroom. On the Premium Plus 55 quattro, targeting $61,500 to $65,000 reflects what motivated dealers are offering on current inventory before additional negotiation. Buyers who use the pricing tool on this page to gather competing dealer quotes before visiting any showroom find the most motivated Q4 e-tron pricing on current inventory.

The Q4 e-tron’s powertrain decision is the most consequential choice in the lineup and should be settled before comparing trim or body style options.
The Q4 e-tron 45 uses a single rear-mounted motor producing 201 horsepower and 229 lb-ft of torque with rear-wheel drive. EPA-estimated range is up to 265 miles on a full charge. Fuel economy equivalent runs 29 city and 34 highway MPGe. The 45 starts at $50,600 before destination , $5,400 less than the equivalent 55 quattro Premium. For buyers in warmer climates where RWD traction is rarely a concern and who prioritize maximum range and the lowest available Q4 e-tron entry price, the 45 is the purpose-built choice. The 265-mile range of the 45 exceeds the 55 quattro’s 245 miles specifically because the rear-motor-only setup is more efficient than the dual-motor AWD system.
The Q4 e-tron 55 quattro uses dual motors producing 295 horsepower and 339 lb-ft of torque with quattro all-wheel drive. EPA-estimated range is up to 245 miles on a full charge. Fuel economy equivalent runs 24 city and 29 highway MPGe. The 55 quattro starts at $56,000 before destination. For buyers in northern climates where winter AWD traction is a regular need, for buyers who specifically want the stronger acceleration and AWD confidence, or for buyers whose driving includes significant mountain terrain, the 55 quattro is the correct choice. TrueCar’s 71 confirmed new Q4 e-tron listings are all 55 quattro configurations , AWD is the dominant variant at US dealers right now. The 45 RWD may require a dealer order rather than an immediate lot purchase at many locations.
The Q4 e-tron is available as a standard SUV with a conventional upright roofline and as a Q4 Sportback with a sloping fastback roofline at a $1,200 to $1,500 premium. The SUV delivers better rear headroom and slightly more cargo access due to its squared-off rear design. The Sportback delivers a more distinctive coupe-like exterior silhouette at the cost of a modest rear headroom reduction. Both share identical powertrains and content specifications at equivalent trim levels. For buyers who prioritize rear passenger comfort and cargo practicality, the standard SUV is the correct starting point. For buyers who specifically want the Sportback’s more athletic exterior character, the modest premium buys a visually distinct vehicle without any mechanical compromise.
TrueCar confirms the 2026 Q4 e-tron is available in two active US trims: Premium and Premium Plus.
Premium 45 ($51,895 with destination) and Premium 55 quattro ($57,295 with destination)
The Premium opens the Q4 e-tron lineup with Audi’s standard luxury EV specification. Standard content includes an 11.6-inch MMI touchscreen, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Audi pre-sense front with automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise assist, lane-keeping assist, LED headlights, heated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, 19-inch alloy wheels, and DC fast charging capability supporting up to 135 kW on the 55 quattro. KBB live listings confirm Premium configurations at $61,150 to $61,745 on current optioned inventory at dealers. For buyers who want the Q4 e-tron’s full standard EV luxury specification at the lowest available price, the Premium 45 at $51,895 with destination is the confirmed entry point and one of the most accessible new Audi EV prices in the US market.
Premium Plus 45 ($56,395 with destination) and Premium Plus 55 quattro ($61,795 with destination)
The Premium Plus adds Audi Virtual Cockpit Plus with augmented reality navigation, a Sonos premium audio system, the convenience package with a power liftgate, a head-up display, rear-view camera with park assist, matrix LED headlights, and 20-inch alloy wheels over the Premium. KBB live listings confirm Premium Plus configurations at $63,045 to $67,390 depending on option packages on current dealer inventory. The spread between $63,045 and $67,390 on the Premium Plus reflects Audi’s modular option packaging. Buyers who want the Premium Plus base specification without additional packages should confirm the as-configured MSRP before comparing dealer quotes. For buyers who want the augmented reality navigation and Sonos audio system in the Q4 e-tron, the Premium Plus is the minimum trim to consider.
The federal $7,500 clean vehicle tax credit under Section 30D was permanently eliminated by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act signed July 4, 2025, for all new EV purchases after September 30, 2025. The Q4 e-tron’s $51,895 to $61,795 starting prices with destination reflect its full effective purchase cost without any federal offset, regardless of the buyer’s income or tax situation. State-level EV incentive programs operate independently and may apply in certain states. Confirm state program eligibility with a tax professional before purchase. Audi Financial Services periodically offers lease support and promotional APR financing on Q4 e-tron inventory that can reduce the effective monthly cost of ownership independent of the federal credit.
Based on KBB live listings confirming Premium configurations at $61,150 to $61,745 and Premium Plus configurations at $63,045 to $67,390 on current dealer inventory, and Audi’s established 3 to 5 percent below-sticker discount environment on compact luxury EVs, here is what buyers who prepare with competing dealer quotes are targeting. On the Premium 55 quattro at $57,295 with destination, targeting $54,000 to $57,000 reflects the established discount range. On the Premium Plus 55 quattro at $61,795 with destination in base configuration, targeting $58,000 to $61,000 is achievable with multi-dealer comparison. On optioned Premium Plus configurations, targeting 3 to 5 percent below the as-configured MSRP is the correct framework. The $63,045 to $67,390 KBB range reflects option loading that should be compared at the specific as-configured MSRP level rather than the base trim price. Buyers who gather three or more competing quotes from local Audi dealers before visiting any showroom consistently find the most motivated Q4 e-tron pricing on current inventory.
The out-the-door price on a 2026 Audi Q4 e-tron adds approximately $2,500 to $4,000 in taxes, title, registration, and documentation fees to the negotiated vehicle price depending on your state and county. On a Premium 55 quattro negotiated to $55,500, the realistic out-the-door total lands in the $58,000 to $59,500 range in most markets. On a Premium Plus 55 quattro negotiated to $60,000, the out-the-door total lands in the $62,500 to $64,000 range. Getting your out-the-door price confirmed in writing from multiple Audi dealers before signing is the final step prepared buyers take before committing to any Q4 e-tron purchase.
Audi Financial Services periodically offers promotional lease and financing terms for well-qualified Q4 e-tron buyers. Audi lease support on EV inventory has historically helped offset the absence of the federal credit by improving residuals and money factors on qualifying configurations. Audi maintains military appreciation programs and loyalty pricing for returning Audi owners. The Q4 e-tron carries Audi’s 4-year/50,000-mile basic warranty and 4-year/50,000-mile powertrain coverage, with the high-voltage battery covered under an 8-year/100,000-mile warranty.
