For the US Q5 Audi hybrid will come first - then diesel will be following
|
Joel Weinberger - the head of dealer council at Audi confirmed in an interview with the Automotive News that the compact crossover Q3 and A7 four-door coupe are now under development, and a small SUV model is being discussed.
So, talking about this Q5, he said that Unite States market will first see this hybrid variant and then the diesel. The Q5 will go as hybrid first, not diesel. There`s so many drivetrains. It really comes down to costing too. Audi affirmes the unit cost of a diesel is with $4,000 more but they luckily realize they cannot sell that for $4,000 more — the premium then will be half of that. `We`ll sell them if they can keep pricing in line`.
When he was asked if Audi need smaller Q5 SUV in the US, he answered that the Q7 is a really a big auto. For size you have to look at (Lexus) RX 330 like your target. `The Q5 will fit into that niche and it should not cannibalize the Q7`. It will be even bigger than (BMW) X3 and the (Acura) RDX. But smaller SUVs tend to be now more oriented toward female.
