Audi Q3

The Q3 is the latest addition to Audi's line of sport utility vehicles. The body is reminiscent of a coupé - giving this compact SUV a sporty edge. The car's trademarks are cool lines, elegant curves, and a distinctive set of head- and tail-lights. Buyers can select a diesel engine or two types of gasoline engines - 125 or 155 kilowatts. Our tester takes out the 130-kilowatt diesel model. 4-wheel drive is a standard feature - and a front-wheel drive diesel model is in the works. The two-liter TDI quattro diesel Q3 takes just over eight seconds to reach 100 kilometers an hour.
