@taylor the audi q5 targets the bmw x3 and the q3 the x1

Taylor Greenfield Feb 20, 2013
I'm dissappointed with Audi for cowarding out and detuning this marvelous engine, since 360 HP would have been crazy fast for such a small SUV

Taylor Greenfield Feb 20, 2013
This is a detuned version of the 2.5 T engine that makes about 40 HP less. There's no S Q5 yet, but since this RS Q5 targets the BMW X1 M, it will sure have the TwinPower 3.0 I6 BMW engine HP (306), the perfect rival for this 306 HP RS Q3.

Daniel Anglevik Feb 20, 2013
Isnt there a S Q3? How many hp in that one?

Frankie Ferreira Feb 20, 2013
Same as ttrs.. It's a beast

Aiden Bass Feb 20, 2013
2.5 LITER TURBO 5 CYLINDER?! Is it a volvo block? That seems like its been Volvo's trademark

Disregard my statements Gary I read the article wrong, sorry!

Bruce Tumblin Feb 20, 2013
You think so Gary well lets see: 1. their both a 4-door hatch 2. both around 300hp 3. both AWD, 4. & both are around the same size; the only difference would be the price (Like I said witch one would you choose?) don't be a knuckle head Gary

Gray Conron Feb 20, 2013
@Bruce that's a dumb question.

Bruce Tumblin Feb 20, 2013
Question: would you get this or a 5-door STI?

Janak Solanki Feb 20, 2013
I don't like the vertical inlets on the lower front fascia. Looks like a ford product. Other wise looks like an Audi

Malachi Monteiro Feb 20, 2013
Looks rather fun.

Facundo Planas Martinelli Feb 20, 2013
Agree with you guys but it wouldnt matter to me to have this baby "suv" in my garage though

Chris Gaines Feb 20, 2013
this is not even a crossover, and is not deserving of the RS moniker

Jens-Kristian Gram Larsen Feb 20, 2013
prefer the RS3

Description: However it will face competition from Mercedes’ upcoming GLA45 AMG that will be powered by the same 354hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-pot in the A45 AMG. Like the RS Q3 concept from last year’s Beijin...

Agreed nick, I think it's pretty unnecessary and pointless.

Quads Quads Quads!!!!!!!!!!!! My moms 328 at least has 2 pipes!!!!!!

Needs another exhaust on the other side!

Christian Brown Feb 20, 2013
I thought it would have 2 exhausts like on the other RS audis. Still, this car is awesome.

Aaron Sparks Feb 20, 2013
Would've looked better the exhaust were in the center

Aaron Abely Feb 20, 2013
One turbo

Edmond Gebara Feb 20, 2013
One exhaust?!?!?????!?

Description: These include the 5 dual-spoke V design wheels that debuted on the concept.
A reworked suspension lowers the car by 25mm over other Q3 models further improving its squat stance and features stiffer...
