Till then, let us give give a few details on the car that will soon enchant US family car buyer. The said vehicle will hit the market in fall 2014 as a 2015 and will be available with a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine with a 200 horsepower and 207 lb-ft (280 Nm) of torque. The standard transmission will be a six-speed Tiptronic auto and the power will be sent as standard to the front wheels, with all-wheel drive being available as an optional extra, likely for around $2,000.

 Concerning its price, there aren’t any details but we’re pretty sure that this will change soon after the Detroit Auto Show. We think it will retail for around $34,000.

The new SUV will also come with a panoramic sunroof, LED daytime running lights, leather upholstery, xenon headlights, heated front seats and numerous other features. So, we can see that Audi has checked out its rival X1 from BMW and had its mind set on offering an SUV that incorporates an elegant, spacious and comfortable vehicle.

Therefore, one can notice that the Q3 follows on the same high-quality line that Audi has accustomed its customers and will definitely be a car to wait for. "Our growing SUV family will now offer three distinct products in the premium SUV category; and like the successful Q5 and Q7, the Q3 will continue with the established standards they started with regards to utility, technology, craftsmanship and performance,” said Scott Keogh, President, Audi of America.
