Comparison Review

Comfort
The Audi Q4 e-tron offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Mercedes-Benz GLA 250, with comparable head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Audi Q4 e-tron and the Mercedes-Benz GLA 250.

Cost

Dimensions
The Audi Q4 e-tron is a little wider than the Mercedes-Benz GLA 250, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Audi Q4 e-tron, which is slightly longer than the Mercedes-Benz GLA 250.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Audi Q4 e-tron and the Mercedes-Benz GLA 250. The Audi Q4 e-tron has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Mercedes-Benz GLA 250.
