German luxury car manufacturer Audi has launched an updated version of its highly popular Q3, with feature upgrades and new engine options.
The new Audi Q3 2.0 TDI FWD starts at Rs 34.20 lakh and the new Audi Q3 2.0 TDI quattro at Rs 37.20 lakh (ex-showroom, New Delhi).
“The Audi Q3 has been a segment leader ever since its introduction apart from being our best-selling model. The market has been evolving rapidly and we have always stayed ahead of the curve by constantly updating the Audi Q3 to enhance its appeal and make it more relevant for our customers. The new Audi Q3 is the benchmark with new engine options, attractive new features and an enviable list of standard equipment upping its desirability quotient immensely,” said Rahil Ansari, Head, Audi India.
The standard features in Audi’s best-selling model now include panoramic sunroof, 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, front seats with electric adjustment and deluxe 2 zone automatic air conditioner.
The new 2.0 TDI quattro engine produces a maximum power of 184hp, 4 per cent more than the previous model and achieves 0-100 in 7.9 seconds.
The new 2.0 litre TDI front wheel drive produces a maximum power of 150hp and manages 0-100 in 9.3 seconds. Both the engines come with a 7 Speed S tronic transmission and offer best-in-class features - a dynamic mix of technology, power and efficiency.
The design changes in exterior include a redesigned bumper underlining the character of the Audi Q3, thanks to its sharper lines and its striking shape. The new air inlets in the front bumper give the car a rugged and aggressive character. The panoramic sunroof is now standard on the car as are the 17” Wheels and LED Headlights with signature LED DRLs.
The interiors now include front seats with electric adjustment as standard on the new Audi Q3. The Audi Q3 2.0 TDI quattro will have sporty aluminium tangent inlays, while the Audi Q3 2.0 TDI FWD gets elegant walnut brown inlays. The Deluxe 2 Zone Automatic Air Conditioner is also standard now.
“We will have overall 10 launches this year and some of these models will be in new segments and will be trendsetters in the luxury car market in India. Our thrust is on fulfilling customers’ requirements and in line with that, this is our third launch of the year after the new Audi A3 Cabriolet and the all-new Audi A4 TDI,” added Ansari.
