Equipment few rivals have, on either carShowHide
Drivetrain
The Audi Q2 uses a Petrol producing 110kW and 250Nm of torque, sent through a s tronic to a FWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 8.6 seconds.
The Toyota bZ4X responds with a Electric making 167kW and 269Nm, paired to a automatic driving the front wheels. It gets to 100km/h in 7.4 seconds.
The Toyota bZ4X has the clear power advantage at 167kW vs 110kW. In the 0-100 sprint (manufacturer-claimed), the Toyota bZ4X is 1.2s quicker. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.
Space & Comfort
The Audi Q2 measures 4,208mm long on a 2,601mm wheelbase, 482mm shorter than the Toyota bZ4X at 4,690mm (2,850mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the Toyota bZ4X generally means more rear legroom.

For towing, the Audi Q2 leads with a 1,200kg braked capacity vs 750kg. That 450kg difference matters if you regularly hitch up.
Neither U-turns in one sweep on a 7 m local street (both need a three-point turn); the Audi Q2's turning circle is 0.7 m tighter, 10.5 m against 11.2 m kerb to kerb. The street estimate is indicative, worked from the published turning circles.
Cost to own
At 15,000 km a year, fuel for the Audi Q2 costs about $1,568 a year (5.5 L/100km) and electricity for the Toyota bZ4X about $662 a year (13.8 kWh/100km), at $1.90 a litre and 32c a kWh.
Warranty: 5 years / Unlimited (Audi Q2) and 5 years / Unlimited (Toyota bZ4X).
Where each one leads
The Audi Q2: the lower starting price ($49,400 against $55,990) and the higher braked towing limit (1,200kg against 750kg).
The Toyota bZ4X: more power (167kW against 110kW) and the bigger boot with the seats up (452L against 405L).
The Verdict
Toyota bZ4X scores higher, 80 vs 71
The Toyota bZ4X scores 80 to the Audi Q2's 71 on the CarSorted Score, and leads 3 of the 5 spec rows that separate them.

How to read this page. Prices, specifications, ANCAP ratings, warranty, the CarSorted Score and the verdict come from our records for the grades shown, sourced from the manufacturers' Australian documents, and change when those records change; the date each was last checked is printed under the headline. Prices are recommended retail prices before on-road costs unless marked drive-away. A plug-in hybrid's fuel figure is labelled with its basis: with a full battery (the certified combined figure) or as a hybrid (battery depleted). Charging and running costs are estimates on the stated assumptions. Always confirm price and specification with the manufacturer or dealer before you buy.
