    Hello !
    I was watching a video, and he put me a Publicity for the new Audi Q2 the famous "untaggable" thing like they say.

    So, like usually when a new car is release I like configure it with the configurator :
    http://www.audi.fr/fr/web/fr/gamme/q2/q2/finitions.html

    I was thiking this thing would cost around 50k € but you can get a descent model for 35 000€ with the TDI 190 cv 4x4/awd.

    So I was curious of what you was thinking about it, also, it's an "4x4" or an "AWD" ?

    AWD. 4WD means you have a locked centre rather than having a centre differential or part time system.

    Yeah, so you can't really make Off-road with it

    Nope.

    That's the epitome of what the europeans call "an SUV": a vehicle that resembles an off-roader but can't really off-road, whose best selling version is usually just FWD, driven by insecure people who either can't drive and feel safer thanks to the sheer size of the thing, or simply need to compensate for their deficiencies.

    That's the reason why Audi (the ultimate poseur brand) has so many of them in their range. ;)

    Oh come on now, I really like (escalade, navigator and cherokee) and big european (GLS, Q7, X5, G, land cruiser V8, range rover, discovery and the new benteyga) SUVs and I don't feel like I am compensating for anything nor I am insecure and can't drive. (I hate FWD btw)

    And yeah, I also like Audi :( I didn't like the new Q7 though.. till I sat in it. It's pretty awesome inside.
    AND NO I AM NOT A FANBOY, I PREFER MERCEDES OVER AUDI ANYTIME hehe

    Audi is really far away from being the ultimate poseur brand, that's the reason why you buy a (brand-new) Mercedes :cool:

    No reason you cant offroad with a centre differential, particularly torque vectoring ones.

    But no, its a crossover, not an SUV. Its not meant for offroading, its a fundemantally bad vehicle. Internally they're just wagons beefed up with zero added practicality.

    Really depends what kind of Mercedes you like, but I would say it gives you more bragging rights than any Audi does anyway.

    None of the named vehicles are FWD ;) The Q2 is also AWD. Most of the named vehicles there are also AWD rather than 4wd. Escalade, navigator, G and land cruiser I think are the only ones there which are 4WD rather than AWD. Cherokee, GLS, Q7, X5, range rover and disco all have diffs.

    Oh I hope I didn't say they are FWD:D I don't like small SUVs at all, but I called full size SUVs just "SUV". That was the problem I guess:confused:

    double-oops will probably just drive off with my s class now and pretend this never happened

    no seriously, I absolutely adore the G, then GLS and love the looks of the new GLE coupe and also the AMG GT and yeah the s class is my personal favourite:rolleyes:

    so I guess I am the ultimate poseur here after all
    I also really like bentley
    okay, yeah I am going
    private jet, anyone?

    Well I definitely like the Tipo design. I don't know why nobody has one. At least I've never seen one.

    It's pretty much a more fancy looking A3 sportback, with a 20l bigger luggage room and a bit more legroom. They cost the same.
