subject: Audi Targets India With The Audi Q3 [print this page] Audi has been working hard to become the leading luxury brand across the world and they have set their sights on their next primary target - India! Audi is just steps away from claiming the top spot in the luxury car market in India's growing market.
Ramping Up for Success
Audi has set a goal to surpass BMW as the leading luxury vehicle in the world. To accomplish this, Audi has been meticulously building its brand image for years, both through its cars as well as the overall Audi ownership experience. As part of the plan, Audi set a goal for 2 million sales by 2020. Because Audi wants to start ranking in high volume sales, they have decided that the Q3 is the key to reaching this goal. The Q3 will be built in Audi's Martorell plant in Spain with everything you would look for in a luxury SUV including innovative technology, safety, and performance features.
The Star Player - The Audi Q3
The front of the Audi Q3 stuns with its LED fettled headlamps and Bulgarian beard grille with tapered edges. The rear has the signature Q series wrap around the tailgate with a highly raked roof design. As a result, this model has a very dynamic stance making it the most edgy looking Q yet, ready to take on the road or the trail.
The Audi Q3 looks much like a hatch with high ground clearance at first glance. It is shorter than a Nissan Sunny and 6cm shorter than the X1. The interior however, is extremely spacious thanks to some clever engineering such as the transversely mounted engine. There is a ton of space at the rear and a 460-litre boot that can be expanded up to 1365 liters by dropping the seats. To make every ride more enjoyable, the Audi Q3's interior is equipped with a fold out 6.5-inch screen, a Bose sound system, and a huge double panorama sunroof.
The Audi Q3 currently gets the 2.0TDI diesel engine that makes 177PS and 380Nm. It hits the ton in 8.7 seconds and tops off at 211kmph.
Be on the lookout for this awesome Audi model. No doubt, it's going to be a head turner. While the Audi Q3 has yet to hit the shores of North America, local Audi fans can learn more about Audi's line-up of SUV models including the Audi Q5, and Audi Q7 at their local Audi dealership.
