2023 Audi Q4 E-Tron S Line 40 Electricity · RO23 OOC

As an electric vehicle, the Q4 E-tron offers significant savings on fuel compared to internal combustion engines, though costs will vary based on home versus public charging. Insurance for the S Line trim is typically higher than base models, and the vehicle will fall into a low-cost tax bracket for its current registration period.

Maintenance costs are generally lower due to the absence of oil changes and exhaust systems. However, the high torque of electric motors often leads to faster tyre wear, which is a known failure point for this model; expect periodic high costs for replacement tyres. The estimated annual running cost is approximately £1,200-£1,600.

Carefully inspect the tyres, specifically the rear axle, as the March 2026 MOT failure noted the offside rear tyre had ply or cords exposed and the nearside rear was close to the legal limit. Ensure the replacements are evenly worn to rule out suspension or alignment issues.

Check the front windscreen for the chips mentioned in both the March and April 2026 MOT records to determine if they require professional repair. Additionally, in line with model aggregate data, inspect the headlamps for clarity and the shock absorbers for any signs of leakage or premature wear.
