Equipment few rivals have, on either carShowHide
Drivetrain
The Audi Q4 e-tron uses a Electric producing 210kW and 545Nm of torque, sent through a single-speed (two-stage planetary) to a RWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 6.7 seconds.
The GMC Yukon responds with a 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 with Dynamic Fuel Management making 313kW and 624Nm, paired to a 10-speed automatic driving all four wheels.
The GMC Yukon has the clear power advantage at 313kW vs 210kW. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.
Space & Comfort
The Audi Q4 e-tron measures 4,588mm long on a 2,764mm wheelbase, 749mm shorter than the GMC Yukon at 5,337mm (3,071mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the GMC Yukon generally means more rear legroom.
For towing, the GMC Yukon leads with a 3,628kg braked capacity vs 1,000kg. That 2,628kg 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 Q4 e-tron's turning circle is 1.2 m tighter, 11.2 m against 12.4 m kerb to kerb. The street estimate is indicative, worked from the published turning circles.
Cost to own
At 15,000 km a year, electricity for the Audi Q4 e-tron costs about $835 a year (17.4 kWh/100km) and fuel for the GMC Yukon about $3,648 a year (12.8 L/100km), at $1.90 a litre and 32c a kWh.
Warranty: 5 years / Unlimited (Audi Q4 e-tron) and 3 years / 100k km (GMC Yukon).
Where each one leads
The Audi Q4 e-tron: the lower starting price ($84,900 against $174,990) and the longer warranty (5 years against 3).
The GMC Yukon: more power (313kW against 210kW) and the higher braked towing limit (3,628kg against 1,000kg).

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. CarSorted does not accept payment for recommendations.
