The refreshed Audi Q2 debuts in Europe with a sharper look and new engine. The Four Rings begins taking orders for them in September and prices start at around €25,000 in Germany.
At launch in Germany, Q2 is available with the 1.5 TFSI engine that makes 148 horsepower (110 kilowatts) and 184 pound-feet (250 Newton-meters) of torque. The powerplant is capable of running on two cylinders to improve efficiency when the driver doesn't need the power. The transmission options are a six-speed manual or seven-speed automatic. Audi indicates that two other gasoline engines and two diesel mills would be available, too.
The exterior of the Q2 is available in five new colors. Apple Green makes its debut in the Audi palette. There's also Arrow Gray, Manhattan Gray, Navarra Blue, and Turbo Blue. Depending on what buyers want, various equipment lines make the C-pillars body color, black, gray, or silver. Similarly, the lower cladding is available in black, Manhattan Gray, or the body color.
