Audi‘s answer to the likes of the BMW X2 is the
upcoming Q4, based on the same MQB platform as the latest Q3 crossover.
Compared to the latter, the Q4 will boast a more dynamic-looking exterior,
featuring a lower roofline, a stronger shoulder line and a slightly more
aggressive front end.
Its rear end design won’t come with a continuous
light strip, which probably means Audi is keeping such features for its more
expensive models – at least for the time being. Also worth noting is that
despite the camouflage, the taillight signature of the Q4 appears to be
identical to that of its Q3 sibling.
Inside, the Q4 should get the same tech as the Q3,
meaning an 8.8-inch infotainment display (10-inch one as optional), plus the
12.3-inch Virtual Cockpit display. Other features will include Wi-Fi hotspot,
multiple USB ports and loads of color combinations to choose from. As for comfort, since this
crossover will have a more sloped roofline, headroom for rear seat passengers
will probably be less than ideal, at least compared to the Q3.
Finally, powertrains. Whatever you find on the Q3
will obviously trickle down (or up) to the Q4. This means we’ll be seeing 35
TFSI, 35 TDI, 40 TFSI, 40 TDI and 45 TFSI versions, where the latter will pack
a 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit, good for 230 PS and 350 Nm of torque. The production-ready Audi Q4 is expected to make its global debut
sometime this year.
