NOTE: Towing numbers quoted in this video are the MAXIMUM AMOUNT, but the ACTUAL TOWING CAPACITY will vary based on a number of factors. For example, although the Model Y is rated to tow up to 3,500 pounds, the actual towing capacity varies all the way down to 0 lbs and up to 3,500 lbs based on tires and numbers of passengers - see Tesla Model Y owner’s manual for more information. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for towing safety.

Love the look of the Audi but would still go for the Tesla for the tech, range, performance, super charger network and the ease of buying online without haggling with the dealer.

I'm looking into a compact suv EV next year and the q4 etron is getting my attention. For me, having apple CarPlay is a major player and is disappointing that Tesla doesn't offer it on any of their models. And I forgot all about the tax credit! That's a major plus! Right now I have a 21 tiguan r line and the upgrade to the q4 etron sline would be a big step!

Well thought out. The Y (my car) has delivered more than expected, and the charge network simple and fast. It will be a while for the ICE builders to catch up...

If you like it the Skoda has the nicer, more homely, more cozy interior. Much like in a real lodge in the woods or a lounge in a high rise instead of the cool modern Tesla look.

Software Update 3.0 will arrive shortly after it's released for ID.4. Then charging speed will increase to 135kw. But it will peak much higher...175kw or so. But charging speed differes between the 40 and 45/50 models. But most Q4s will be delivered with 3.0/3.1 already installed.

Tbh Audi Q4 or Hyundai Ioniq 5 are compelling competion due to offering more variants. It's no longer enough to depend on M3 to offset these limitations so Tesla needs to avail the MY RWD variants asap otherwise the market will be lost to competitors. Hopefully Texas/Berlin Gigas will kick in soon.

Also MS 2014 was free charging but any new tesla charge about 25p per kW. This is similar to non super charge chargers in the UK. My main problem was that when I first had my Tesla, there was no model 3 so always free charger. Now many popular chargers always busy and full. Also there are about 50 miles between superchargers here in the uk. Now with q4 I would need dc chargers which are literally everywhere. I won't have to drive outside my planned journey, just pop into a service station and charge whilst going for a pee.

Is the Tesla model Y not eligible for the $7500 credit? I saw you only mentioned it for the Audi.

First of all, I think you’d rather compare the Tesla Model 3 to the Audi Q4 etron. And then, because of the body style, it should be the Q4 etron Sportsback. It has less air drag (like the Tesla) which has a huge influence on energy consumption (less) and range (more). On top, the pricing gets them closer. In Europe these days, the most popular “offspring” of the new Volkswagen MEB platform is the Škoda Enyaq. No idea if they offer this in the US. But to the understanding of German car buyers, it’s the better car for less money than the Audi Q4 etron or the Volkswagen ID 4. By now there is no fastback version of the Enyaq available, still the air drag coefficient of the SUV-style body is way better than the one of any of its siblings (less air drag, more range!). What has to be said is, Tesla has an edge over most of the other battery car producers (BEV) by battery technology, lightweight design, superchargers and the navigation software. The only cars that have caught up to Tesla so far are the new Mercedes-Benz EQS and the already introduced EQE (not yet available). In some fields, they have even overtaken Tesla (e.g. active suspension, additional rear wheel steering, head-up display, just to name a few). And at least in Europe, most of the cars are available with LED matrix lights (don’t know why the US have banned this feature, it makes driving at night so much safer). One thing, talking about top speed in a US video sounds a little strange to me since I wonder where do you want to go to drive these speeds? Are US drivers really able to drive top speeds of 160 mph +? Would other drivers be aware of you driving that fast? How would the cops react? Sure, this is possible in Germany in some cases (Autobahn with little traffic, no speed limit at the particular road, enough energy on board), but German BEVs are usually limited in top speed because the impact on range is so dramatic (double the speed = four times the consumption, makes absolutely sense). Regarding the acceleration, I wonder if people can handle that rocket behaviour of the car in real traffic… . It needs a lot of experience and estimation skills to do this in a safe style (space, other driver’s behaviour and perception of your driving style, …), so you better don’t do it as long as you aren’t absolutely sure. But, thanks for the interesting report anyway.

The audi Q4 is an amazing car. Talked to a salesperson. Did a testdrive with it. I've placed my order. I once entered a tesla store and left the store after minutes of waiting. They were too busy. They loose. Simple as that.

I have a y. I like it but dont love it. Don’t love how it handles. The 3 is better that way but I like to be higher off ground. Really wanted an stein but after this video I’m not sure I do. 😟

The new Audi Q4 eTron is very nice and I would love to have it, but there's no contest. Tesla is (light) years ahead and this is not a biased opinion. Model Y coming in end of November.

I have the Model Y, would you do a review of the Mercedes EQS??

MSRP is not what dealers are willing to sell for… dealers will tack on additional 20k to MSRP! Tesla, everyone pays same based on internet ordering!

From a vehicle production point of view the key question is what margin is Audi making per vehicle produced? That interior looks expensive to manufacture, especially compared to the minimalist Model Y dashboard and interior. On another note, I think everyone knows that there is a new federal tax credit arrangement being worked out in Congress as we speak that will make the Model Y eligible for the $7500 reduction as well. It might be worth holding out for the deal to pass before buying.

As for the tesla chargers, it is an advantage especially in the US, but in Europe where there is a big push for green tech the alternatives are growing very fast.

There must be a mistake in ur information about driver's headroom in the Q4.

What that sound like to me is the Tesla Model Y is more efficient than the Audi. So yes, pay more for a more efficient car that has a cleaner and less busy interior, faster acceleration, access to the best charging network on the planet and retains more of its overall value. Sounds like an easy choice even if you're factoring in the tax credit. Mind you, you might not qualify for the full $7,500 since it will be based on your tax liability.

Audi is saddled with legacy internal combustion Tesla is all electric. I suspect that given the cash burn in this industry it will be difficult if not impossible for all of the legacy auto manufactures to survive. We will see bankruptcy and auto tech evolve and only the strong will survive. Tesla is vertically integrated, others are not, causing consolidation industry wide.

Two things. 1. Although the video explained how inappropriate it is to compare EPA est range between different makes, the video still continued to use it as a measure to give Tesla an advantage. For eg: I don't understand why the video used miles added per charging based on EPA range and making some conclusion. At least the test results from KZreadrs should have been used. Both cars won't be far off if done that way. It was very unfair. 2. An important point with Audi would be how they will list the prices on yearly maintenance cost.

Lol 20k miles is brand new barely broken in, to pay that much after hardly driving it is a reason I decided German cars are just a money pit. No justification to pay that much for service after such little miles on it, it shouldn’t even need service besides an oil change after 20k miles.

YOU MISSED the TOTAL LOAD WEIGHT on these cars where the q4 has almost double what the model y has..!

Cleanerwatt - TESLA model Y is KILLING it in Sales . and does NOT even need a Rebate , though you can get STATE Rebates and a Clean Energy Rebate in SOME States. even though the AUDI has a $7500 tax credit its selling like SHIT in the USA and in Europe and UK. the TESLA model Y is the BEST SELLING Compact SUV in America , passing the model 3 in Sales. AUDI Q4 eTron is still a TURD.

both cars are only recently available in Europe, so I don't know what data you have to say that it is selling like shit in Europe. Given the price difference the Audi is a much more reasonable car for company cars (which drives a lot of car sales in Europe)

On a Dollar to Dollar basis Audi wins hands down. A lot more features, which frankly, Tesla needs to start offering. HUD, Apple Car play, Android Auto, genuine leather, and Sirius XM will be deal killers regardless of how far you can go with a Tesla or the charging network. Tesla is great with its tech but it's far from being a premium luxury vehicle.

Car Play and Android auto ain’t even really all that great tbh

I can hyper mile any car for better numbers. Not a boast, but I routinely got 120+ out of my 2013 Nissan Leaf.

Audi may be including free DC fast charging like the ID4.

It’s good to have competition. However, it seems obvious that the Tesla Model Y has a performance advantage over the Audi Q4 E-TRON. Once you are in the market, the pricing seems to make little difference in desirability when compared with the fun factor and the range.

Bought a Tesla after going into an Audi dealership and feeling like I was talking to my parents or grandparents jumping through God knows how many hoops. Whole process was awful. Tesla I just clicked a few buttons online and chatted with the guy at the shop about Tesla stock for awhile. Can't beat the experience. This is in Germany fyi.

I am from Denmark and we have this Audi q40 and audi are good at making cars look good. but everything we do not see, technical, construction info, the IT system and not least the charging system and battery are hopelessly outdated. I recommend Tesla.

I find it bizarre that there is no comparison of what these two vehicles are like to drive. Which is the best at cornering or how the two car ride compares when out on the road? Another KZread review showed that the Tesla turning circle was really bad.

Major disadvantage on all of these legacy manufacturers within the US is their ability to provide ota firmware updates. The only other manufacture I know of to date is Polestar with the model 2.

Mosey Y all day long How much cost to charge q4 at charging stations $38 like Mach -e?

Real life range of etron may be decent but performance is sacrificed. Only Tesla can have the cake and eat it. Supercharging network is number 1 consideration if you intend to tour with your EV.

Tax credit is available for both and the standard option you’ll have to call and ask for, which is 39,600! Call and find out!

Exactly, these Tesla fanboys will compare every car to a Tesla without even having them in real life and act like its an unbias comparison.

You're comparing a 'flip phone car' to a 'smartphone car'. The Audi is an ICEV to EV transition car. Audi owners 'graduate' to Teslas after they attempt a road trip.

The Germans had decades to establish somewhat stable supply lines for their million button interiors. Something Tesla just skipped by thinking ahead and being unconventional.

You’ll need to update your pricing for your Tesla. They just increased their prices.

What kind of comparison is that? No mention of performance? Comparing an approx 300 HP SUV with a approx. 400 HP SUV (Model Y has a staggering 30% more power) is like comparing a Miata with a Corvette.. The Model Y drives circles around the Q4 etron.. Over 1 second difference from 0 to 60.. Q4 etron is a 14 second 1/4 mile car while the Model Y is a 12 second car..The video also mentions Bjorn Nylands range tests. Bjorn tested the China Model Y which has a smaller battery than the US version (75 kwh vs 82.1 kwh)

Tesla should improve the material quality and assembly. Enough for me to order à Q4 50

Tesla’s UI is not acceptable at any price. I plan to get the Q4 50 AWD as soon as I can place an order here in the US.

At my local Audi dealership, they are selling the Premium Audi at 74k…

Pls translate ètron from French to English and you’ll understand why this car will fail.

Volkswagen group have openly admitted they are 7 years behind tesla, that's like buying a 2 generation old car and claiming it's the latest and greatest

Starting when the performance mean 0-60 acceleration, but that make no sense. I’m sure the handling will be much better for Q4 than model Y.

Only idiots equate more buttons with luxury. What do I need 5 buttons to control cruise control when I only need a stalk control and a scroll wheel. As far as the climate control, much of the settings can be accessed by voice control, negating the need to even look at the center screen.

I own 2 Audi's (2018 SQ5 and a 2018 S5 Cabriolet...still love driving those cars, but they don't compare to my Tesla Y. Yes, the level of luxury on my Audi's is superior, but it almost feels antiquated. Absolutely love getting the over-the-air updates, it's almost like my iPhone, I wake up in the morning and I have a new feature. Don't get me wrong, I love my Audi's, but they are a light-year behind Tesla...just hoping they catch up.

The Q4 e-Tron also gets OTA updates.

ADAS system??? Why not call it Advanced driver-assistance system?

Prefer Q4 as I like the German luxury style of quality though Y is a top EV.

I like your calm, rational comparisons. I can hardly wait for you to compare the Kia EV6 GT-Line with the Model 3.

What tax credit?

Great details on specs but your tone on this video is very biased towards the Tesla. You might as well have just done a video on how the Y is better than all ev's out there 😆

For years the Germans went on and on about how their spartan interiors were more classically spartan. This went on for Decades. German manufactures constantly panned the more luxurious American Cars over their German contemporaries. I think the Japanese Luxury cars made them change their game. It is funny to see the tables being turned. I am not sure 36000 is truly an affordable vehicle.
