Is the Audi Q2 a good car? 

The Audi Q2 shares its underpinnings and powertrains with a variety of other Volkswagen and Audi products that have notched-up hundreds of thousands of unit sales globally, making the Q2 a very good product indeed.

Who is the Audi Q2 a good car for?

Since the Q2 offers style and relative practicality in a reasonably affordable package, this product will suit a variety of car buyers, from the person looking for a compact family vehicle to an active couple, or even someone looking to downsize from a bigger product without compromising on quality.

Is the Audi Q2 a good first car?

While those shopping for a new Audi as their first car may find the compact A1 appealing, however, the rise in popularity of the crossover may make the Q2 the perfect first vehicle for an Audi fan.

Is the Audi Q2 a good family car?

The Q2 is not the largest of SUVs, but it offers enough space for five occupants,  a 405-litre boot as well as a 5-Star Euro NCAP crash test safety rating, meaning that it will work well for families with smaller children, with one of Audi's larger SUVs being the logical upgrade when the children have grown.

What’s it like to drive? 

Reviewer's opinion

Once considered an expensive and unnecessary addition to the Audi product portfolio, the thought process behind the Q2 has certainly aged well, as those looking for the most attainable Audi with a slightly raised ride height will likely turn their attention to one of these.
