Audi announced an increase in price of its compact luxury SUV – Audi Q3 2.0 TDI between 1 to 2 percent. The new price will be effective from October 1, 2012 on both the high grade and base grade of the 2.0 TDI engine.
Audi Q3 was launched in June which is the youngest member of the Audi Q family equipped with a powerful and efficient 2.0 TDI engine.
Currently, the Audi Q3 is priced at Rs. 26,21,000 onwards (Ex-showroom Maharashtra) for the base grade and Rs. 31,49,000 onwards for the high grade, and is available at all 21 Audi dealerships across India. The price increase is due to economic upheavals and rupee devaluation.
Since it was unveiled at the Auto Expo in January 2012, this youngest member of the Audi Q family was one of the most awaited vehicles to hit the Indian roads in recent times, which is evident from its spectacular success of 500 bookings in the initial phase of market introduction. Till date, 1000 Audi Q3s have been sold in India and only limited numbers of Audi Q3s are available for sale in 2012.
Audi India plans to expand its network to 25 dealerships by the end of 2012 from its existing 21 centres. Audi recently opened new showrooms in Coimbatore, Delhi West Nagpur, Bhopal, Navi Mumbai and Goa.
