Audi Q2 SUV 2017 review | carwow Reviews

[@betterbeavailable]

It's funny how always Audi-haters come here to whine how "ugly","boring" or whatever these cars are. The fact is that these guys drive a -99 Toyota Corolla and are pissed every time Audi swooshes by.

[@bou212]

I almost die with "It looks like a mutated VW Polo". Good review anyways.

[@alirezazadeh]

Omg Lol that was funniest part

[@deathbastardable]

He hit the nail on the head.

[@ScottPC]

As the owner of a polo I have to agree haha

[@kraenk12]

On the other hand the Polo is still great looking.

[@carwow]

Thanks!

[@PlatinumSan]

hey Mat, will it be possible if you guys can edit in the metric conversions for engine power, torque and weight in the future? It would be very helpful. cheers

[@timppa600]

Yesss!

[@Sceri0]

Yes im not alone thinking about that

[@lucaalex87]

Please do :)

[@robertjusic9097]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJilmmqNhquDa7c Audi Q2 2017 in VIMS 2017.

[@the-boring-car-guy]

I like it because finally Audi stopped playing safe with the design

[@buca9696]

And failed terribly.

[@newlinkdirect]

+1 Why mess with perfect design elements? why because like other makes there is a stupidly element built into the company. Image? buy a Q3.

[@cockshield]

Remember when BMW stopped playing safe with their designs? We ended up with the ugliest cars the brand ever produced. The E60 and E65 were particularly hideous!

[@jamesalders896]

I think the E60 looks great, just because its different from bland and square designs doesn't make it bad

[@rytiskurcinskas7179]

e60 is probably the most successful bmw ever made so far ...

[@crimsonstang]

This channel has much better content than larger car channels, but they have less subs. This is personally my favorite car review channel.

[@carwow]

Thanks :)

[@AkiffHssn]

always :)

[@hilmartertius]

Man I really enjoy your reviews. I viewed a few of the new carbuyer vids and it's sooooo exhausting to watch. Your reviews are entertaining, insightful and relaxing. So much so that even my wife like to watch it with me :) Two thumbs up sir!

[@carwow]

+Hilmar Jooste thanks

[@jesusiscoollike]

damn dude you're hella consistent with your uploads. as always the best review out there.

[@carwow]

Cheers Tony

[@banstaman]

I wonder really what class this competes in considering the Q3 is a subcompact crossover. Furthermore it makes me wonder more of Audi's nomenclature and what a mess it's becoming. While Q means crossover/suv, they're usually odd numbered [Q3, Q5, Q7] and odd numbers typically mean coupe as well [A5, A7] yet the A3 is a sedan and a hatch as well. This is all getting confusing. At least there's consistency with other luxury automakers.

[@doctormac123]

It's a very pointless car just get an A3, in fact all theses small crossovers are.

[@joesavory4976]

People like the high driving position, including myself.

[@doctormac123]

+Joe Savory I'm a natural born petrol head as such I like a car that drives very well, it's a big sacrifice just for a high diving position cars like this are slower, not as nice to drive, more expensive to buy and run than a normal hatchback. I don't get any fizz off of them.

[@joesavory4976]

+doctormac123 Same, I've been obsessed with cars since I could talk and dream of owning a Focus RS, but cars like the Skoda Yeti prove that crossovers don't have to be boring to drive, and tbh if I want thrills I wouldn't be buying a family sized car like an Astra, so I may as well spend it on a crossover for the same money. They're economical too, I have a friend who has a Qashqai who gets around 65-70 mpg, it's when you get into huge SUVs like a Sorrento when it gets costly.

[@JYMAHJAMES]

SUV's are pointless too. And you can't even see past the big SUV if you are behind.

[@doctormac123]

+Jamoi I like the big proper SUVs just the small hatchback size ones that I don't like, which arnt SUVs just hatchbacks made worse

[@TheRab101]

Can't beat Matts reviews. Well done with a good spread of light-hearted humour - Spot on

[@gerasimospanas1435]

if you do not like crossovers and you will never buy one, why you loose your time to watch the video?

[@FILIP98R]

Is the flick test backed by science?

[@carwow]

Yes. I have a science degree.

[@FILIP98R]

;)

[@gene978]

+carwow LMAO!

[@chickensoupfortheloser8515]

How a polo cross looks like after hitting the gym

[@menifo4334]

Now we know why in Audi they are so conservative and repetitive with their designs. Because every time they try to get bold and break their design norm they come up with something like.... this.

[@jh5kl]

audi r8, audi at sportback 2015 facelift, audi a3 sedan, a4, a5, practically all rs models, audi a1. do yourself a favor and stop parroting what you are told to

[@appelpower1]

Ah, now you see with the exception of the R8, the A1 and the A5 and derivatives, those are all dull either because they look like all the other Audis, or their predecessor. So that includes the TT. Oh, and with the new A5 and A5 Sportback, they took the old one and changed almost nothing, but somehow made it lose the magic of the last one.

[@jh5kl]

appelpower1 oh another one arrived

[@appelpower1]

jh5kl How am I wrong? And I'd like to see arguments, please.

[@jh5kl]

appelpower1 wtf? is your last comment even adressable? tt was never dull, absurd to say that, like it or not, the design was striking since the first generation (again, regardless you and i like it or not). here alone you can see your pure nonsense. am i saying audi has no dull cars? absolutely not, what is the brand that does not make design mistakes? is audi excessively defensive on their design changes? yes much to my disapointment. is it clearly fkn retarded to pass audi as a brand with just dull designs? off course, just like vomiting the idea that audi has a problem when the design shows similarities across cars, when thats a fkn industry standard (seriously stupid argument that one). also, evolution in design does not equate to being dull, that doesn t even make any sense. just gratuitous attacks. every suit tailor is then dull since after the first one was made, and you fkn want arguments from me? HA regardless of tastes you didn t even made sense. (the new a5 and a5 sportback are purely stunning)

[@Andy-oe8bi]

the rear does look like a polo

[@TheGreatLoco]

The Countryman-class of SUV's is the smallest you can go with an SUV, without sacrificing any interior space. It's great for 5 and has solid boot space. The packaging is perfect. Not sure about the Q2 execution though. The design is busy without being distinctive. The tech on the other hand is very impressive for such small car. Not so sure about the superminis, those tend to be too small either in the back seats or the boot. The Golf-class on the other hand is +20 cm larger, not so great in the city.

[@thabolefleur9655]

I actually love the way it looks

[@paulo-da-lua]

Me too

[@jh5kl]

and he was actually unfair to the car, audi even put torque vectoring in this car, doesn t exist even in upper segments from other brands.

[@Fahrzhad]

It's shit

[@wh7824]

dude, i would totally choose GLA or X1 over this badly designed Audi.

[@AlbertArrabal]

+Wilson H those cars do not compete with the Q2

[@robincormie855]

I want a replacement for my q3 s/line,it looks dated now Mazda CX-5 sport what do you guys think

[@haoyangeng3429]

If Mat Watson can make car review like old top gear. Car Wow will be the best car review channel.

[@astrogharb]

thank you for pointing out the audi logo - wouldn't have been able to find it. Car wow or car buyer flick test?

[@-Loki--]

When I first saw it side on, I thought it was a Citroen Cactus. It still looks like a Citroen, with an Audi badge.

[@DaantjeJansen]

When is the Audi Q1.5 comming out? lol

[@carwow]

Give it time…

[@cybertroy2]

daaayum. Matt and the boys are chunning out so many videos...feels like christmas :) i've got ma popcorn ready. keep 'em coming

[@carwow]

We will! Caramel, sweet or salted?

[@cybertroy2]

haha always salted :)

[@philnewcombe7545]

Hes spot on about the Polo back, first thing i thought when i saw it

[@deathbastardable]

Overly entitled 40-something mums have enough choice in the car market, thanks anyway Audi.

[@AlbertArrabal]

Thanks God! They had to use horrible Mini Countrymans until now

[@Cityofemeralds]

ponggolese would you mind if I ask what you drive?

[@DanielVSL]

Good to see you sit in the correct side of the vehicle.

[@IliescuBenyamin]

I love how you give little informations comparing this car's size with the A3 and Q3. Great job, i very much enjoy the reviews (could you please tell us the L/KM consumption from now on, it would be helpful).

[@MrChilidogdk]

I like the design but the colour and the wheels in the test doesn't fit the Q2 well. Choose the sharp red or blue colour and the big open wheels. Not the boring wheels in the test.

[@JurgenDX]

How does this compare, size wise, to a Skoda Yeti?

[@hasanal-habbobi4018]

why does the q2 get the 8 inch screen but not the s3"?!?!?

[@elshazlio]

Nice review. May you please review the Audi Q3? Thanks.

[@Chris2010H]

everyone complains when audi basically 'photocopies' there car design and now when they decide to be a bit bold everyone seems to slate them... I like the looks I saw one in red with a silver sideblade and 18' wheels and it looked really sharp, also imagine this as a young families car that once had a polo or an A1 and realised they needed more space than a supermini but wants something that stands out more than an A3 with a funkier interior, I actually really like it and I hate crossovers at least it looks like they gave it a bit of effort and I can see who this car actually appeals too

[@Zuchu4501]

Nice! This was filmed in my hometown. I really wished I'd see you so I could hug you, Mat :)

[@hrushikeshkarandikar]

Nice Video and thanks for information. I am waiting for your review on Seat Leon FR and Seat Leon Cupra Models.

[@AdamAmorTutorials]

what happend u doing carbuyer?

[@Damayn]

I think Audi need to bring back the A2 only more classy and refined..

[@carwow]

That was a cool car. Ahead of its time… as the sales figures showed :(

[@bigbadbear2962]

I think they should make a whole new MPV Body Style With the O3 Range Which has an S and RS Variants (Ford B Max Rival With the O5 Range With has S and RS variants and also has a coupè body style variant for the A2 heritage (Ford C max Rival) The O7 Range With RS and S variants (Ford Smax rival) And A O7 L which rivals a Ford Galaxy

[@nickwills6042]

horrid car, but they seem to have stolen Volvo's "Thor Hammer" DRLs

[@jamesoneill1840]

l think you'll find Audi had this light design firstly introduced on the facelift A6 a couple of years back

[@hanssiegling8262]

Volvos new german Designer was the chef designer for the VW company if you know what i mean.

[@trainzandtrombones]

more of a right angle tbh. and volvo's actually do look miles better, more than just a line of leds.

[@nickwills6042]

James O neill looking back, I thought the concept coupe came out before the a6?

[@Olehv94]

+James O neill nope, Volvo's concept coupe came out before the A6 facelift was shown off

[@ChrisKitVeedubber]

Audi going after Evoque customers then.

[@hwleitner2009]

Question: by have much do the ubiquitous fake air intakes increase the aerodynamic coefficient ? Why do most designers feel that these just have to be there.

[@MrBouenos]

will the Q2 have E-tron modle too..?

[@amir434y]

I think you have enough potential and sense of humor to present Top Gear!

[@Maurice_Moss]

I love how every manufacturer is giving us cars we didn't ask for, they say there giving us what we want, but they're just copying cars their rivals make just so they don't miss out on the market. Now we've got a convertible range over evoque!

[@franklampard78]

When are you going to review the Mazda CX-5?

[@aj.1505]

Is this available in Canada yet?

[@danne6a]

What's up with all the after market displays on german cars, are we living in the 90's!!?

[@danne6a]

The only car with nice entertainment system is the 90-series from volvo, even the new tesla looks like an ipad pro glued to the dash

[@user-sg9fj5lm9w]

really stepped up with this review in terms of camera angles and quality, commentary. I don't know if I'm the only one who noticed this

[@nicolasbozzo2364]

i think that the design i nice. i would not consider it as a drawback

[@kam945]

With turned front lights Idk why but its similiar (for me) to MERCEDES-BENZ AMG GT

[@Mr11ESSE111]

in front he looks like A3 from 2008 and behind like new WV polo

[@ReviveWoT]

tbh, I'm glad that they went for a different design for the Q2... It makes it a little bit more special and "lifestyle-ish"

[@mrdunn423]

Looks like a large VW Golf with the Back of the car is a Polo and Audi interior IMO

[@mrv6159]

Love the remark on the diffuser hahaha. Great vid!

[@carwow]

Thanks Das

[@BurningJah]

It feels like audi always make the typing 2, make you do a number 2. Remember the A2 and now the Q2

[@DanielDaniel-kh6bv]

can you do me a favor? please review bmw 7series compare to s class and a8! thats gonna be awe

[@piyathatt]

any chance of reviewing the lexus?

[@MiguelLuna1]

The first Audi in years that looks different. Besides that comparison with the Polo. Hahaha

[@kraenk12]

Sorry Matt, but the interior is not from the A3, it's completely different except for some components like the air vents!

[@menganmb9542]

matt ¿the mercedes benz glc coupe ?

[@danielanderson7481]

You can definitely see the A3 on the inside and that ain't a bad thing as the A3 is a well made car as well. Overall I think that the Q2 is awesome!👍

[@yiorgospapadopoulos3795]

This model might become the most profitable car in audis' range. It is quite cheap for its size!

[@dawod2020]

It has Not just good Image But also good quality ofcourse

[@Firemarioflower]

To show off succes you drive a Q2??? w hat's wrong with an A8?? This thing is way cheaper!!!

[@chickensoupfortheloser8515]

+cockshield 😂

[@interceptor-ss8kb]

I've done really well for myself I own a bmw 1 series, yes it's the cheapest model bmw produce and yes it's miles away from the range topping luxury of the 7 series.

[@cockshield]

interceptor1986 My rant was against pointless "4x4s", not cheaper cars. The 1-Series is a fine car sir!

[@interceptor-ss8kb]

+cockshield I wasn't Joking I own a 1 series but I want a 7 series, I feel like I'm bottom of the pile I must work harder and get off this low level, people must know I've made it, I need a 7series.

[@carwow]

That's our new favourite car-genre. The twat panzer. Love it.

[@ravs05]

Mutated polo... We thought the same when we first saw it. So got the Q3 instead of waiting for this.

[@neilnitin4004]

Man found u after a while..instantly subscribed to ur channel. Awesome reviews as usual! Keep up the gud work.

[@carwow]

Cheers Neil

[@thomasw.6066]

If the interior of the Q2 looks like the A3, how is the interior of the new 2nd Gen Q3 look like then? I mean the Q5 interior is based on the A4 interior, and the Q3 interior should be be based on the A3, but if the Q2 looks like an A3 from the inside already, then the (new) Q3 is just gonna be a bigger Q2...

[@mrdunn423]

Yes, same as a Q2

[@isurufernando3270]

can u do a video about the land rover defender?

[@mannytalksfooty]

not a bad car. doesn't look like you have much options to add to the car. but would still probably purchase.

[@42094]

wow! U went to Germany!? That's dry...... lol no holiday for me this year

[@shihab0]

Looks good than other similar size crossovers.... Built on A3 so seems like a solid built... Time will tell how reliable ... Gives a bit of jeep n range rover feel

[@editiorabhishekkumbhare3524]

Whats is a price

[@swaroopfroyo]

Quality is getting better by the day...good job...!!

[@mihakanzyani]

Polo! was also my first impression of the rear end. Nice catch and great review as always. I watch your videos even if I'm not into that type of car because you make it fun. P.S.: I love the fact you are using new locations.

[@nathalierabearijao]

Mat, you should consider acting! You are hilarious!

[@ThisIsMTH]

Not a huge fan but I LOVE that burnt orange.

[@mrlalbi101]

can these engines last past 100k miles without many problems

[@ManojKumar-wi9en]

Mat watson u r simply awesome... Ur gesture and postures r simple and neat... U r very impressive

[@hoyaboarder]

I like the design honestly, nice try but premium feeling for exterior is bit lacking.

[@zackjoker2220]

how much ?

[@pavlosstamatis1457]

Is he driving in the left lane in Germany??

[@ldv-washwoodheathconvoy-ma6280]

This is now the future of Audis worldwide all I can say is I love de Q2 is my review thank you Matt (with double t's tee hee) for you generousity u have inspired a nation to follow their dreams and suceed for y just being yourself thank you once again and I do love you Matt God bless you and one love.

[@geroutathat]

BMW X1 starting price here in Ireland 39,000, Q2 starting price 30,000. I think this Q2 actually makes a lot of sense, most Audi drivers live in the city, this is a city suv for want of a better term. One you can park in tight spots, get around the city in be a bit fashion statement and posh with the badge, but also a lot of City people drive to the mountains/beach on the weekends, and while they never go offroad, they do on dirt tracks etc. Hiking and all of that stuff is becoming fashionable. I know I would prefer this to the A3, as I live in a city but pop out of it every weekend for recreation.

[@gorangvashishth8657]

Any idea about the price of this car in India

[@wh7824]

this Q2 is like, if you want to drive a branded car, but you don't have a lot of money, this is the car for you.

[@sunking101]

Not necessarily. Some people have all the money in the world but want a small car. They don't care about speed or handling either.

[@ThePranshut]

sunroof?

[@MrEngland92]

Fantastic review once again! I can watch all your car reviews!

[@chhassan]

make a review Audi Q2 vs BMW X1

[@NCHobbies]

At least it's got a virtual cockpit haha

[@marcosgibson0076]

Please have a CD player

[@rakeshenganti7741]

where was the video shot?

[@carwow]

+Rakesh Enganti switzerland

[@thowell3129]

fantastic scenery! where was this filmed?

[@carwow]

Switzerland!

[@MrEngland92]

+carwow was just going to ask the same question! The place is beautiful

[@hermesmercure6356]

and the price is incredibly high...it' crazy.

[@rakeshenganti7741]

Your reviews are great Matt. love watching them. No ladies tights in the q2 then!!!

[@carwow]

Thanks!

[@mslim5288]

Pug 2008 front + VW back

[@charlieparker4767]

It looks amazing it's so funky and distinctive ❤️❤️

[@froogallab5048]

Slowly they've copied BMW with the interiors: that swivel wheel and screen layout makes me remind of BMW so much...

[@uyghursaction4130]

Froogal Lab bmw 200 000 km finish. Why copy that car? 😂

[@78wolfgang78]

As always a good review, don't like the tuna can but the landscape is great ;) Got to love Switzerland :)

[@Zadrigo]

More Skodas, Opels, Toyotas and VWs, please!

[@atizeg]

That fake air intake is disappointing. Is the grill's pattern from a Range Rover? (OK, RR Sport has fake air outtake.) Matt, please review the Range Rover SVR. -Thanks.

[@Mister_H]

Looks like the love child between a Citroen Cactus and a VW Polo. The thing is the Cactus is better looking!

[@sunking101]

The Cactus is one of the most minging designs of all time. Plastic panels on the sides for goodness sake?

[@Mister_H]

It's called innovation!
