Audi AG will bring crossover Q3 in Shanghai Motor Show later this month. Of course there are the curious, like what his form? Incidentally, a manufacturer based in Ingolstadt, Germany, was leaked, though in the form of sketches via the Internet.
Audi Q3 positioned to tackle other rivals in the same segment, such as the BMW X1 and the Range Rover Evoque. It looks more robust and smaller dimensions of the Audi Q5.
Design grill, headlights, and bumper not much different with "his brother" (Audi Q5). From the news that blew, Audi will equip the car with several engine variants, including 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine turbo-powered TFSI 200 HP, 3.0 liter diesel engine, and engine supercharger 3.0 liter V6 gasoline-powered 333 HP.
Q3 production will be done by the parent company, Volkswagen AG, Martorell factory near Barcelona, Spain. The opening of this plant will absorb at least 700 new employees and, reportedly, VW is also preparing another new brand, Seat, to accompany the Audi.
China was chosen as the location of first appearance for Q3 because it is the most important markets for Audi today. During the first quarter of this year, sales in China and Hong Kong recorded 64,122 units or an increase of 24.5 percent over the same period last year.
"Continuing our record last year, in the first quarter of 2011, we managed to achieve positive growth in China. This year, we are targeting sales of at least 280,000 units," said Peter Schwarzenbauer, Director of Marketing and Sales of Audi AG.
