Bigger is better, is what generally the Indian concept goes, and Audi is following the same strategy with its current portfolio. The Ingolstadt-based manufacturer is focusing on reducing the cost of Q3 by not just localising it, but also even introducing a low-spec variant on it.

With luxury hatchbacks costing about Rs 26-28lakhs on the road, after all the taxes the car that makes it similar to the cost of a compact SUV. And Indians generally prefer either a three-box or an SUV over an hatchback, which could favour more sales for the Q3 if the locally assembled model will be introduced.

The locally-assembled Q3 will have Quattro as well, however it could miss out on LED cluster and some more bells and whistles on the inside, possibly a lower-spec music system will come fitted, and no sun roof also. This will help them to reduce the cost. Audi is also planning to introduce the front wheel drive version of the Q3 at a later stage. This will mean, that the entry-level Q3 could be priced just like the A-Class or the 1 Series. Volvo has also introduced the V40 Cross Country, however it seems to be more of a hatchback, as the Cross Country generally comes with all-wheel drive.

Audi India will soon introduce more new products in the market like the S6, S7 and by the end of the year we can expect A3 and S3 also to make it into our country. Our sources confirm that Audi will introduce the new RS5 in sometime.
