Since 2018, with the release of the Audi Q8, the company is adamant that it wants a place in the mid-size luxury crossover coupe market. BMW was the first company to do so in 2008 with the X6, and Mercedes Benz followed suit with the GLE Coupe in 2015. This is your favourite SUV with a truncated roof, which gives the vehicle a coupe-type effect.

WHEN it comes to seven-seat sport utility vehicles (SUV), the Audi Q7 is easily the best of the bunch. However, even though it has the ability to handle three rows of human cargo, that hasn’t stopped the brand from not resting on its laurels with the new 2020 model.
The exterior is drawn from the sportier Q8 for some fresh looks. Full LED headlights, tail lights and the new octagon-shaped single- frame grill blend well with the longer, stately body lines necessary for the Q7 to handle the third row of passengers.

Form versus function, looks versus ability. These are all elements that are constantly at odds with one another. However, the 2020 Audi Q3 and its Sportback version are the automotive equivalent of having your cake and eating it too.
For those versed in Audi lore, the Sportback moniker gets applied to models having a sleeker profile, usually a sloped roofline or hatchback. So, for the folks looking for a small, luxury sport utility vehicle (SUV), there’s the standard Q3 recently refreshed for its second generation. For those wanting a more coupé-like slant to their SUV styling, there’s the Q3 Sportback. The Sportback gets a lower roofline towards the rear, digging into the design language created by the brand’s other coupé SUV, the larger Q8. Both are good looking SUVs, so ultimately it’s just a matter of buyer perspective.

Greatness is set to arrive this month as Audi Jamaica welcomes its newest mild hybrid SUV; the new 2020 Audi Q7. This class leading SUV combines progressive design with innovative technology to offer superb dynamics, premium comfort and superior spaciousness.
Uche’ McLean, Sales Manager at Audi Jamaica commented, “the new design of the Audi Q7 is both striking and fiercely appealing. The exterior sports the Audi signature look while the interior is packed with innovative safety and technological features.

Ever since brands like BMW experimented with the X6 at the dawn of the 21st century, luxury automakers are making a vehicle for every niche market. Audi, a brand that has thrived on the rally circuit, with its Quattro engine, is also making a name for itself in a slightly new area. Being one of the first high-end brands to enter the luxury subcompact market, the Q3 is now in its second generation, with a bigger body and better proportions than the previous model.
Audi steadfastly sticks to its tried and true design language, starting with its octagonal grille, borrowed from the Q8, and two trapezoidal intakes. From a front view, it’s impossible to mistake it for any other brand, and this time, it’s on the aggressive side. There is also a strong character line which runs below the bonnet, and through to the trunk.
A new advertising slogan was introduced in 1971 that would define the Four-Ringed Germans destiny in life. ‘Vorsprung durch Technik’, coined to celebrate the launch of a new flagship model – The Audi 80. at its launch in 1972, the ’80’ displayed new technologies such as OHC ( Cam) engines and self-stabilizing steering. By the time production of the first generation ended production, more than a million cars had been built. The brand had changes in 1974 which appointed Ferdinand Piech, initially as the Head of Technical Development. This period witnessed Audi raising its brand positioning with the creation of the 5 Cylinder engine (1976), mainstream turbocharging (1979), and the Quattro four wheel drive system.
What is an Audi Q3 Sportback and what does it mean? Its meaning is infinite as the all-new 2020 Audi Q3 Sportback is the latest compact SUV added to the Q range, and the second with the dynamic coupé shape. The new model combines the strong presence and versatile everyday convenience of an SUV with the sporty elegance and agile handling of a coupé. This makes it the first compact crossover of the Audi brand with the customer favourite coupe styling.
GIVEN the industry’s highly competitive nature, automakers are constantly tweaking existing models to give them that extra oomph . Audi’s flagship SUV, the Q7, and its executive sedan, the A4, recently went under the knife.
And, according to Audi, it’s more than just nips and tucks generally associated with facelifts.
So, to showcase the new and improved models, last week the German manufacturer invited six journalists from Latin America and the Caribbean to its revered Audi Forum in Inglostadt, Germany, to get an up-close and personal look. We were not disappointed.
