Volkswagen Tiguan

Bought the car after reviewing multiple options and must say the car is a beast. Power, features you get everything, comfort could have been slightly better but no complaints. Better than most other marquee brands if you look at the price value.

The Boss Baby

The audi's baby SUV, the Audi Q3 was launched in India to fulfill the dreams of many people of owning an Audi or a German luxury SUV. It feels really luxurious on the inside and an Audi SUV from the outside. It was last updated in 2017. Although it is the size of a creta the Audi badge makes it feel bigger. The drive and handling is what you will expect from an Audi. You will feel like you are sitting in a luxury car. The seats are comfortable with good thigh support and a decent rear seat space. It seats five and has a good bootspace of 460 liters. You can take it for a road trip and use the space of the bootspace. You will get a ground clearance of 170 mm, which is not so good for a SUV. German cars even volkswagens are expensive in the matter of maintanence, and so is the Q3. Finally the price, it starts at rs 39.4 lakhs on-road mumbai, which is less than the top model of Toyota Fortuner at rs 40.13 lakhs on-road mumbai. The Q3 is 4388 mm long, 1831 mm wide and 1590 mm high making it a good city car.It has a whhel base of 2603 mm. it gets a 1.4 liter 4 cylinder, 181bhp engine. CONS 1- no apple carplay or android auto 2- high transmission tunnel makes it a good four seater. Overall a really good Audi is what is. You can go for it.
