ABT wants to appeal
to Audi owners with a new tuning package aimed at the smallest crossover from
Ingolstadt, the Q2. Their work kicks off with power upgrades aimed at the
strongest petrol and diesel engines, obtained thanks to the internally-developed
engine control unit (ECU).
The 2.0-liter
gasoline burner is now good for 228 PS and 360 Nm of torque, instead of the stock 190 PS and 320 Nm of torque. The 2.0-liter diesel, on the other hand, now delivers 215 PS and 440 Nm of torque, which represents a 25 PS and 40 Nm of torque bump in power.
Other work includes
the addition of lowering suspension springs, which drop the entire body by 40
mm at both ends. Rounding up the tuner’s offerings are the wheels,
available in three different patterns, called DR, ER-C and FR, from 18- to
20-inch in size. For the second option, customers can choose between two
finishes, called gun-metal/diamond-machined or matte black.
If looking at the
tuned Audi Q2 has made you want one, then get ready to spend at least € 23,900 for the entry-level grade in Germany. The same model starts at
£ 21,665 in the United Kingdom.
