Funkky is not a word that you would definitely connect with Audi’s “lead through technology”, but that is exactly what you get with the unmistakable new Q2.
The latest and smallest SUV, which is followed by the constantly growing Audi series, will please traditionalists and at the same time attract newer customers who could otherwise choose the established, more ordinary alternatives.
Audi claims that it has a new compact premium SUV others.
Something lower than most of its competitors thanks to its sporting roof line, the Q2 may be overall for the cactus.
At a price of 22,380 GBP there are three equipment variants to choose from (SE, Sport and S Line) and five engines, which between a TFSI gasoline of 150 hp 1.0-liter three-cylinder to a 2.0-liter diesel of 160 hp with a diesel of 160 hp is enough, with a 190 hp 2.0-2-0- liter TFSI follows at the end of 2017.
I drove versions with 1.6-liter diesel and 1.4-liter petrol units. Unusually Audi expects the latter to be the most popular, while customers are also expected to decide the higher equipment variants (sport and S line).
Our selection would be a 1.4 TFSI model in the S-line specification with a 7-speed tronic transmission, although we look forward to driving the 1.0-liter TFSI version that is one of the best Three-pot engines of the business contains.
The first thing she hits over the Q2 is that it looks like no other compact SUV. We have already mentioned its height, but it also has clean, shaped lines and a C-pillar that is available in different colors.
Add this to the selection of external colors, including our favorite – Vegas Yellow – and you have a car that stands out in a good way.
Bop in and it has the Signature Premium appearance of Audi and the higher the equipment volume that you decide, the better it gets.
The seating position is comfortable if a fraction lower than some competitors. The view is good and there is plenty of space in front and back. There is definitely space for four 6 -foot -although much larger passengers on the back could fight for headroom. The luggage compartment is an appropriate 405 liters (1,050 with below).
The dashboard design, the ventilation controls and materials used are up to the high standard of Audi and of course on the latest connectivity and with multicolored LED mood lighting.
The Q2 is equipped with a 7-inch infotainment screen (an 8-inch upgrade is available) high on the instrument panel and there is a Rotary controller and additional link switch near the gear selector.
DAB radio, multifunction steering wheel, air conditioning are standard. However, if you receive the higher equipment variants, options such as cruise control, automatic lights and wipers as well as various driver and safety aids are within reach.
We recommend that the driver’s virtual cockpit decide on the Audi, which is impressively fluid 12.3-inch digital display of the driver, which can be seen for the first time on the TT.
So how is it? Well, it is easy to find the right driving position, and the smooth 1.4-liter petrol engine is a powerful artist, while the car itself drives more like an assembly rear than an SUV/crossover.
The journey may be a little firm for some, but it is more sophisticated and more spirited drivers can select the dynamic option in Audi Drive, where the Q2 feels slim and precisely planted with well -controlled body. It is a lot of fun. It can be possible for recording in 8.5 seconds and a top speed of 132 km / h of 0-60 km / h.
With a stressed 54MPG and low CO2 emissions of 119 g/km, operating costs are competitive.
The Q2 is a premium choice with a lot of kit, but for many it is the connectivity and personalization options that vibrate.
Regardless of whether it is the mood lighting or a lively color and a contrasting C-acidification blade for which external is selected, only a few Q2s look identical.
Yes, the Audi Q2 1.4 TFSI S Tronic brings you back around 30,000 pounds, but for the money you will receive a classic, practical, modern compact SUV with a sportier, lower profile and impressive driving dynamics.
