New Audi Q3 : SUV Review 2012 and Pictures

This compact premium SUV by Audi will roll off the assembly line with three various four-cylinder engines: one TDI and two TFSI units. All 3 will combine direct injection with turbocharging, and will feature not merely an energy recovery program but also a start-stop program. With power outputs ranging from 103 kW (140 hp) to 155 kW (211 hp), these engines will be as efficient as they’re potent. The basic version, the Q3 2.0 TDI, is scheduled to appear somewhat later and – with 103 kW (140 hp) and front-wheel drive – will average less than 5.2 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers (45.23 US mpg).

The interior of 2012 Audi Q3 is really roomy; its ergonomics and its workmanship are exemplary. Just as for the exterior, buyers have numerous opportunities to express their extremely own style within the interior: Audi offers a wide selection of materials and colors. The luggage compartment delivers 460 to 1,365 liters (16.24 to 48.2 cu ft) of capacity – perfect for sports and leisure.
