2016 Audi Q2 Promotional Video From UK – Video
There’s no big surprises in the engine range, either. The petrol lineup will kick off with the familiar 148bhp 1.4 TSI ‘Cylinder on Demand’ unit, then moves on to the Quattro and auto-only 187bhp 2.0 TFSI. European buyers get a flagship 248bhp 2.0-litre, but that’s not confirmed for the UK yet. The diesel range consists of a 115bhp 1.6 and 148bhp 2.0 TDI for now, with Quattro four-wheel drive set to be available across most engines later in the year. All engines now get the option of the latest seven-speed S-Tronic gearbox with a decoupling function.
Fortunately, there’s a hot model in the pipeline, as an engineer let slip on our exclusive preview event. We’re expecting both ‘S’ and ‘RS’ models to come, both with highly tuned turbocharged engines, although there’s no indication yet if the storming RS 3’s 362bhp five-cylinder can fit in the Q2.
Audi will offer a range of customisation packs for the Q2 along with a range of exterior paint colours and interior shades. Customers will have the option of an interior LED lighting package that illuminates various trim pieces in a specific colour set by the driver. A set of 17-inch alloys are standard with 19-inch ones offered as an option.
