Small, yet tons of personality. Audi's are loaded with class and quality. One thing, you won't miss Audi for any other brand. The Q7 is a very large SUV and if you are into that, cool. The Q5 seems like a good size, but the Q3 seems perfect. It should compete with Volvo's beautiful XC60.

Totally agree,
The only problem is they are sacrificing other models, such as the B8 S4 Avant, as they do not want to harm their crossover sales. Lame, I'd rather have an S4 Avant then a Q5.

Why? What the hell is the point of a Q3, let alone a Q1? Does anybody really want an SUV with no interior space? Crossovers really get just as bad mileage as traditional SUVs and it's annoying me that people are duped into thinking that buying a Ford Edge makes you way more eco-friendly than buying a Ford Escape.

You have a point. I am of the opinion that Audi should not bother with any 4-passenger car smaller than the A3. As S4 stated earlier, who wants an SUV with no interior space?
