Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron EV charger: an overview per version

The Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron charges at home at up to 11 kW. That needs a three-phase connection, so a supply that carries three live phases instead of one. Match your charger to that figure, not to the DC speed of a motorway rapid charger. Wallbox Discounter has a separate page per version, with the right charging times and advice. Also see our overview of all Audi EV chargers.

For the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron we recommend a charger from our 11 kW EV chargers.

Charging specifications of the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron

The common 45 version runs on a 77 kWh net battery and reaches 11 kW AC at home. That adds roughly 50 to 60 kilometres of range per hour. The plug is Type 2 for home charging, and rapid charging runs through CCS, the connector used at motorway fast chargers.

Which EV charger suits the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron?

Every version charges at 11 kW at home, so an 11 kW charger is the logical choice. A 22 kW unit will not go faster, because the car's onboard charger sets the ceiling.

Also look at what the charger measures. A MID meter is a certified kWh meter built into the charger. It shows exactly what charging at home costs, apart from the rest of your household use.

At 11 kW the choice with a MID meter is narrow. If you need that measurement, look at our 22 kW EV chargers. The range is wider there, and your Audi still charges at 11 kW. Without a MID meter the 11 kW charger stays the cheaper choice.

Two other features matter for a car that charges overnight. With dynamic load balancing the charger measures how much power your fuse box has to spare. It then adjusts the charging speed on the fly, so a circuit never trips. An EV charger with an app lets you set a session on your cheapest hours and follow your consumption.

How long does the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron take to charge?

For the 45 version with 77 kWh the sum is simple. Divide 77 kWh by 11 kW and you land at roughly 7 hours from empty to full. Plug in when you go to bed and the car is ready in the morning. In practice you rarely charge from 0 to 100 percent. A midweek top-up is usually done in a couple of hours.

We always recommend having the connection made by a qualified electrician. That is safer, and it matters for your insurance. Wallbox Discounter arranges installation in the Netherlands, Flemish Belgium and Germany. In the Netherlands and Flemish Belgium you order it together with the charger. In Germany it runs through a free quote.

Shipping is a separate matter. We ship worldwide, but installation is limited to those three countries.

Frequently asked questions about the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron

Does the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron charge at 11 kW or 22 kW?

At home the Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron takes 11 kW AC at most. A 22 kW charger adds no speed, because the car's onboard charger is capped at 11 kW. An 11 kW charger is exactly what you need.

Do I need an EV charger with a MID meter?

That depends on what you want to do with the readings. A MID meter records your charging separately, to a certified standard. So you know exactly what a full battery costs you at home, separate from the rest of your electricity bill. At 11 kW the choice is limited, so check the MID meter range before you decide.
