Audi showcased its Q3 compact SUV at the Auto Expo. The German Manufacturer is likely to launch the Q3 later this year with a base 2.0-litre TFSI petrol and a 2.0 TDi to compete head-on with the BMW X1, which has stolen a march at the affordable end of the luxury car spectrum. However, unlike the X1 which only comes with rear-wheel drive, Audi will offer the Q3 with both front-wheel and four-wheel-drive options. Prices are likely to be competitive and to lower costs, the Q3 will be assembled at VW’s Aurangabad facility.

Apart from the Q3, Audi also showcased its lineup which includes range of saloons, SUVs and sports cars.
