Compare the BMW iX1 vs Audi Q4 e-tron
AI generated from our expert reviews
Both the BMW iX1 and Audi Q4 e-tron are easy to drive around town, though they handle urban roads differently. The iX1 struggles a little with surfaces that are not smooth, making sure you know about every bump, whereas the Q4 e-tron easily deals with potholes and sudden speed bumps. In the back, tall passengers will find themselves a little light on legroom in the iX1 if the front occupants are reasonably tall, while the Q4 e-tron will easily fit a six-footer behind another six-foot-tall adult in the front. You also get a bigger boot with the Audi, and it charges faster than the BMW. Inside, both cars miss out on physical climate control switches in favour of on-screen systems.
