Been searching for my first EV and I’m down to an Audi Q4 e-tron or a Volvo XC40. I don’t make a lot of money so I’m going to have to lease instead of buy (Q4 leases about 10% cheaper than the XC40).

I’ve test driven and like both of them a lot - maybe leaning towards the Volvo just for comfort level. I like the Lightning too but dealers on Ohio won’t budge and they don’t lease well.

Anyone have any feedback on the XC40 or Q4? Pros or cons you can mention from owning one of these?

    The range of both vehicles is comparable, so I’d argue it boils down to which dealer is more convenient to visit for the odd maintenance.

    (That aside, I’m personally dubious of opting for a lease, especially if money is tight long term. But I’m the sort of person who’d opt to get every damned mile out of a vehicle I could before begrudgingly admitting it’s time for a replacement.)
