Audi Q3 Concept RS


Today, then the message that Audi will unveil at the Auto China 2012, a study of its small sporty SUV's Q3 - first prototype had already been in use. Key figures: 360 horsepower, the well-known among others from the Audi RS3 and slightly pimped 2.5-liter 5-cylinder TFSI delivers. Acceleration from zero to sixty miles in 5.2 seconds. A 265 km / h faster, relatively high-Build 1.6-tonne small car - a car for a niche.


Audi's PR statement, the Audi Q3 Concept RS was a "vibrant vitality of theme vehicle" may be justly doubted of driver-relevant aspects, going beyond an exclusive viewing of the longitudinal dynamic characteristics. It's just always been a matter of relative Betrachtunsgweise: compact to sporty and ambitious drivers with a penchant might find in an SUV's Q3 like maybe their souls.

Next to the appropriate engine for a 25-millimeter lowered, provide sharper designed carbon-plastic composites (CFRP) for visual appreciation and the quattro all-wheel drive in conjunction with a seven-speed S tronic. Evil tongues say, the quattro drive system is a sham, he leads as a rule, the drive but "almost exclusively on the front wheels." Here, Audi has apparently decided once more against the vaunted "thrilling dynamism" in favor of increased security. What is perfectly legitimate, of course.

The exterior mirror housings are made of black CFRP strips revolve in matt aluminum side window. The roof spoiler is long back, its average over the outer segment is slightly shortened. The diffuser insert at the rear, which integrates the two tailpipes in typical RS-look is pulled way up. Here too, the Audi designers chose a combination of blue and black glazed CFRP.


The alloy wheels of the Audi Q3 Concept RS set RS continued the dynamic Q-design undkommen in size 8.5 J x 20 Your front is polished, the edges are sanded. The tire size 255/30 is not typical for an SUV, but for the RS model.


Price, the production version of the Audi Q3 will most definitely like this much beyond the 40,000 - 45,000 euros settle. Real Fahrdynamiker know about this course, there are quite dynamic driving alternatives ...
