 The new Audi Q3 reveals its strengths The Audi Q3 is the first Audi to enter the premium A SUV segment and combines the traditional strengths of an SUV with the requirements of an increasingly urbanised world. Design expertise, efficiency and compact dimensions are new qualities that the Audi Q3 brings to this vehicle class, whilst retaining the classic characteristics of an SUV - versatility, everyday suitability, robustness and driving pleasure. Performance and Efficiency The Audi Q3 is characterised by sportiness and driving dynamics. The 2.0-litre TFSI engines combine direct fuel injection with turbocharging, creating the basis for remarkable performance and excellent efficiency.
Impressively low consumption and emission figures are also provided by energy recovery (recuperation) and the start-stop system – efficiency measures that come as standard.
The sporty 7-speed S tronic, with its fast gear changes, underlines the outstanding dynamics of the Q3’s compact performance.
 The urban SUV Measuring 4.39 metres in length, the Audi Q3 is a rather compact SUV. However, the interior shows the true stature of this innovative vehicle.
Not only do all occupants have ample space – the Audi Q3 also demonstrates its excellent suitability for everyday use and its individual character.
This is guaranteed by the generous luggage compartment, the many storage options and the folding front passenger seat. What’s more, with the numerous inlays and colour and material combinations, the interior can be given a look which ranges from sporty and elegant through to powerful and striking.
Furthermore, as an SUV it conveys an individual sense of reassurance. This concept means that the Q3 appeals to young and old alike.
For younger customers, design and driving pleasure epitomise a modern lifestyle, while young couples and families appreciate its multifunctionality. Whichever way you look at it, the Audi Q3 reveals its strengths.
Audi Q3 will be available in South Africa in the second quarter of 2012. |
