Audi Q4 e-tron now gets bidirectional charging tech. Faster charging and improved range across variants. New infotainment system with ChatGPT integration.

Audi has updated its popular electric SUV, the Audi Q4 e-tron, with a range of new features and improvements. The refreshed model will go on sale in Europe from May 2026, with deliveries expected to begin soon after.

Now Supports Bidirectional Charging

The biggest highlight of the update is bidirectional charging, making the Q4 e-tron the first Audi model to offer this feature.

With this technology, the SUV can supply power to external devices through Vehicle-to-Load (V2L). It can also support Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) in select markets, allowing the battery to power a home or store energy from solar panels.
