Audi Q3 Preview in KL!

After Santa Claus came to town, Euromobil brings the Audi Q3 which is going to be launched in Malaysia next year to town! The Audi Q3 is here due to its ASEAN preview tour and a unit of Q3 will be available for viewing in two of Audi's showrooms in the Klang Valley, as stated in the picture above. (I would prefer they show the Q3 in public places like shopping centres)



The compact SUV (rivals are eg. BMW X1 and Volkswagen Tiguan) will have a 2.0-litre TFSI 4-cylinder engine which can churn out 170bhp and 280Nm of torque from as low as 1700rpm, and mated with a 7-speed S-tronic transmission and quattro all-wheel drive. Official price list is not announced yet, but expect it to be competitive.



Personally I'm not a fan of the Audi Q3's design. Yes, it looks rugged and solid, but it lacks of emotion and excitement. From far I might think that the Q3 is a Q5! Both design is just a tad too similar. But I'm sure it's still a great car with above average quality and drivability.
