In an effort to keep the playing field as level as possible, we've chosen equivalent trim levels of both the Audi Q4 e-tron and Tesla Model Y. Comparing starting prices, you'll find that the Model Y begins with a lower price tag than the Q4 e-tron. Don't let the MSRP deceive you! Choosing the Q4 e-tron is certainly the smarter option when you consider the performance specs. The Q4 e-tron has the advantage in both battery voltage and total capacity, leading to a more rewarding ownership experience. Similarly, the Q4 e-tron also offers a significantly faster charge time using 240-volt power than the Tesla Model Y. Driving an Audi Q4 e-tron means that you'll experience more capability.

Next, we'll turn our attention to the interiors of both models. With Tesla competing in the luxury segment, it's disappointing to learn that the Model Y comes equipped with synthetic leatherette upholstery that lacks feel. This is a stark contrast to the authentic leather upholstery included as standard inside the Audi Q4 e-tron. Also related to comfort, the Q4 e-tron includes a standard three-zone climate control system compared to just two zones inside the Model Y. Although the minimalist layout of the Model Y is certainly unique, living with it day-to-day can be a frustrating experience. Conversely, the Q4 e-tron features an intuitive dual-screen layout and physical climate control buttons. Rounding out the list of interior advantages for the Q4 e-tron is its superior shoulder room across both the front and rear rows of seating.

Sophisticated engineering remains a staple of the Audi model lineup including the electrified Q4 e-tron. All trim levels come standard with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration for seamless access to your favorite apps and media. Tailored for both convenience and usability, these outstanding features are not available on any version of the Tesla Model Y. Another critical component of the Audi brand experience is access to its nationwide network of authorized dealerships in the unlikely event that your vehicle requires unexpected service or repairs. On the other hand, Tesla currently operates with a questionable remote service network that's received plenty of criticism from owners. Finally, there's no mileage restriction included during the term of roadside assistance coverage provided by Audi.
