We loved Audi’s latest baby SUV and now we love it even more with Audi releasing the Q3’s prices. So what do we have here at that unbelievable price? The prestigious Audi badge, lots of space, an SUV and not to mention a brilliant diesel engine with loads of technology.

The Q3 (Read : Audi Q3 First Drive) is immediately recognizable as the youngest member of the Audi Q family. This is a great strategy to ensure a solid brand recall as well as transcend the values of the Q range across segments. By creating this link, Audi has managed to kill a number of birds with a single stone and immediately establish the Q3’s credentials as a compact yet sporty, efficient and versatile vehicle that embodies Audi’s technological prowess.

Powering this baby is the brilliant 2.0-litre TDI four-cylinder diesel unit that makes a healthy 177PS @ 4200rpm and a solid 380Nm of torque between 1750 and 2500rpm. Audi combines the engine with quattro permanent all-wheel drive which works with a hydraulic multi plate clutch as well the seven speed S-tronic gearbox. What this translates to is a 0 to 100km/h in just 8.2 seconds and a top speed of 212km/h while offering you enhanced stability and better cornering thanks to the quattro system.

It’s pretty loaded too, with standard equipment including a concert Bose surround sound system, climate control air conditioning as well as a 6.5-inch fold out monitor that makes up part of the MMI functionality. The Q3 has borrowed heavily from vehicles higher in the range to offer elements such as adaptive light systems for the headlights, high beam assistant, panoramic sun roof as well as a host of safety features such as numerous airbags, ABS, and EBD.

Audi has already posted tremendous growth in the luxury segment and it’s not difficult to see why. The Q3 then is another feather in the cap for the brand with four rings and is sure to take it straight to the top.
