Having rolled-out a series of updates of three years ago, Audi debuted another revised version of the Q4 e-tron on the eve of the Beijing Motor Show last week.
Applicable to both the standard Q4 and the coupe-styled Sportback, the latest revisions not only involves the interior, but a raft of changes to the interior as well.
New outside
Globally revealed five years ago, the exterior tweaks are minor and include a now colour-coded sealed Singleframe grille, a Selenite Silver Matte finish for the bumper blades on S line derivatives, new alloy wheel designs and black accents for the roof strips.
A new rear spoiler, customisable functions for the equally new LED and Matrix LED headlights, new wing elements on the front bumper and a revised D-pillar rounds the exterior off, together with the Mythos Black styling package.
Physical switchgear reduction
Making up of the bulk of the changes, the interior takes leave of the majority of the physical switchgear on both the infotainment system and centre console.
For the central MMI display, the setup increases in size from 11.6 to 12.8-inches, the instrument cluster now measures 11.9-inches.
A new option is a 12-inch MMI display on the passenger’s side, as well as a new augmented reality Head-Up Display and restyled centre console.
Also new are the redesigned air vents, two ventilated wireless smartphone charging pads, up to two rear type-C USB ports, standard ambient lighting and sport seats, and the cost extra Sonos sound system.
Finally, Audi has also improved the materials and re-introduced physical buttons and scrollers to the steering wheel.
