Compare the Alpine A290 vs Audi Q4 e-tron
AI generated from our expert reviews
The Audi Q4 e-tron is the longer car, offering a larger boot, faster charging and a longer range between top-ups. Inside, the Audi provides impressive rear legroom where you will easily fit a six-footer behind another six-foot adult, alongside good-sized cup holders. By contrast, space in the back of the Alpine A290 is quite limited, meaning you will struggle to fit one six-footer behind another, and there are no cup holders anywhere in the cabin. Where the Alpine strikes back is in dynamic appeal, proving great fun to drive on a country road with sharp changes of direction. The Audi, on the other hand, cannot be expected to deliver much fun on a country lane, even if it can be chucked into bends without kicking up a fuss.
