Electric mobility comes to the fore where the everyday meets long distances. On a trip from central Munich to the foothills of the Bavarian Alps, the Audi Q4 e-tron demonstrates on how many levels a modern electric SUV fulfills these requirements — inside and outside city limits as well as on twisty roads all the way to the Tegernsee lake and back. An early morning in downtown Munich: around 5 a.m., long before the morning rush begins, the Audi Q4 e-tron is ready for a trip into the scenic foothills of the Bavarian Alps. Herman Verbeek, product specialist at Audi and his team set off in the heart of Bavaria’s capital, between Marienplatz and Frauenkirche. Their luggage and equipment are quickly stowed away in the SUV’s capacious trunk. One quick glance at the navigation display and the journey begins: “Hey Audi, take us to Tegernsee.” The Audi Assistant responds instantly and starts the navigation. Around 200 kilometers long, the route begins in urban surroundings before following rural roads into the foothills of the Alps and continuing along twisty roads near Tegernsee.
