AUDI will have a rival to the Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe and the BMW X4 on the market by 2019 as it ramps up plans to expand its growing SUV line-up.
The Audi Q4 will be built in Hungary from 2019, the first compact, coupe-silhouette SUV from the brand that will slot in between the smaller Q3 and the slightly larger Q5. Giving a hint at its origins, Audi will also move production of the Q3 from Spain to Hungary.
“The premium SUV in a coupe style combines great spaciousness with emotive design and offers the latest technologies in assistance and infotainment systems,” it said.
The two SUVs are part of a big SUV push expected from Audi in the next few years. Other high-riding spin-offs are expected to include a 2.0-litre turbocharged Q2 S and more potent RS, a new Q5 RS featuring a turbocharged V6, and potentially an SQ8 featuring the same hybrid drivetrain as under the SQ7’s skin.
It is also close to revealing a fifth generation of its A6 large sedan and wagon range, including potentially another generation of its A6 Allroad, a jacked-up, SUV-styled version of the wagon.
