If you’re eyeing a new electric SUV this year, the 2025 Audi Q4 e-tron and 2025 Lexus RZ are likely on your radar. Both bring modern luxury, impressive efficiency, and the latest tech to the road. The question is what makes each one stand out? Let’s dive into the details and see how they measure up side by side.
Power That Defines Smooth Performance
The 2025 Audi Q4 e-tron delivers 282 horsepower with 402 lb-ft of torque through its electric powertrain. That torque gives it confident acceleration and smooth handling on every turn. The 2025 Lexus RZ, on the other hand, brings 308 horsepower and 321 lb-ft of torque, giving it slightly more initial punch, especially during quick takeoffs. Both are refined and responsive, but the Q4 e-tron’s torque advantage gives it a satisfying edge for daily driving confidence.Efficiency That Fits the Canadian Lifestyle
Electric range and efficiency matter when it comes to an EV. The 2025 Audi Q4 e-tron achieves a combined 2.1 L/100 km with a 463 km driving range from its 82.0 kWh battery. Meanwhile, the 2025 Lexus RZ offers 2.2 L/100 km combined and a 354 km range from its 73.0 kWh battery. While both are efficient, the Q4 e-tron goes farther between charges, ideal for those longer weekend trips or BC highway drives.
Tech That Feels Instinctive
Inside, the 2025 Audi Q4 e-tron blends sophistication with simplicity. It features a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and in-car Wi-Fi for effortless connectivity. The 2025 Lexus RZ steps it up with a 14.0-inch touchscreen and a 10-speaker audio setup. Both interiors are premium, but Audi’s clean layout and digital precision make it feel like an extension of modern life rather than just a vehicle cabin.
Comfort and Craftsmanship That Impress
Both models fit five passengers comfortably and include heated, power-adjustable front seats. The Q4 e-tron’s leather upholstery and multi-link suspension add to the premium feel, offering smooth rides even on rougher roads. The RZ features synthetic leather seating and a strut suspension setup for a more traditional luxury vibe. Cargo space is nearly neck and neck, with the Q4 offering 702 to 1,504-litres and the RZ 966 to 1,515-litres, ample room for both daily life and road trips.Confidence with Every Drive
Safety is top-notch in both SUVs. The 2025 Audi Q4 e-tron includes adaptive cruise control, rear radar parking aids, rain-sensing wipers, and standard LED lighting for better visibility. The 2025 Lexus RZ also excels, with advanced collision mitigation, multiple airbags, and a 5-star overall safety rating from the NHTSA. Both ensure peace of mind, but Audi’s balanced safety and tech features feel especially seamless on Canadian roads.
