So has anyone tried to place an order for a Motability Q4 e tron since the price reduction on October 1st? Was it confirmed that it would be the newer Sport 45 or would it be a stock item? According to the Audi website, there are, it seems, 21 Q4 Sport 40 e trons (i.e. the Motability spec) either in stock in the country or in transit available for collection in 1 – 12 weeks. Of these, 16 have cloth seats and five leather. Interestingly, there are nearly as many (19) Sport 35s available which I believe was dropped by Audi as an option a while ago. I wonder if you would be allowed to put a factory order in if you wanted an option adding (at your own cost) that wasn’t available on any of the stock/in transit cars?
Audi started taking orders for the new 45 Etron at the end of September, with deliveries expected December 23 or Jan 24. Will the 40 become base spec or will production end. Whether or not you can still request a factory order or be lucky and get a 45 I don’t know. It could be they are removed from the scheme next year, unless the scheme is allowed the 45 model!
