About the Audi Q2
The Audi Q2 goes into 2023 with an unchanged range and equipment list, but a slightly higher price than before.
The compact SUV range kicks off at $45,200 before on-road costs, and extends to $66,900 before on-roads for the high-performance SQ2 after price hikes across the Audi range.
Audi gave the Q2 range an update in 2021. Externally you’ll be able to distinguish the updated model with its revised LED daytime-running light signature and new bumpers.
The headlights are LED as standard, with new Matrix LED units available as an option.
The interior received only minor tweaks and retains the outgoing model’s 8.3-inch infotainment screen, controlled solely via a rotary dial.

Interior
Audi is culling buttons at a rapid rate across its range, but the Q2 bucks the trend.
It’s based on the previous-generation A3, and features the same interior design. Usually an older interior would be a drawback, but the design in the Q2 still looks box fresh.
From the cool metal air vent surrounds to the satisfying click-clack of the climate controls and infotainment controller, it’s tactile in a way touchscreen-heavy designs just can’t be.
It does feel a bit cheap in places, though. The base door trims are plain black and rock hard, and there’s no air vents or fold-down central armrest in the rear.
Exterior
A unique design in the Audi lineup, the Q2 almost feels like its from a different design language compared to some of Audi's other models. Nonetheless, it's arguably one of the best looking cars in the German brand's showrooms.

Cost of Ownership
A five-year service plan is available for the SQ2, priced at $2540, while the 35 and 40 TFSI are covered by a plan priced at $2280.
How it Drives
The 2023 Audi Q2 is available with a choice of three engines.
The 35 TFSI uses a turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder that produces 110kW of power and 250Nm of torque. It’s available only with front-wheel drive.
The 40 TFSI uses a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine with 140kW of power and 320Nm of torque, while the SQ2 also uses a turbo 2.0-litre albeit with 221kW of power and 400Nm of torque. Both models are all-wheel drive.
All models use a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
0-100km/h times are 8.6 seconds for the 35 TFSI, 6.5 seconds for the 40 TFSI and 4.9 seconds for the SQ2.
Audi Q2 Safety Rating
The 2023 Audi Q2 has a five-star rating from ANCAP based on testing conducted in 2016.
It received an adult occupant protection score of 93 per cent, a child occupant protection score of 86 per cent, a pedestrian protection score of 70 per cent and a safety assist score of 60 per cent.
The five-star rating doesn’t apply to the SQ2, which remains untested by ANCAP.
All 2022 Audi Q2 and SQ2 models come standard with the following safety features:
- Autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection
- Blind-spot monitoring
- Front, front-side and curtain airbags
- Reversing camera with front and rear parking sensors
Audi Q2 Warranty
The 2023 Audi Q2 and SQ2 are covered by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty.
Audi Q2 Infotainment
Infotainment is a mixed bag. On the one hand, the (optional) Virtual Cockpit sat where the speedo and rev counter usually would be is still the standard-setter for digital dials.
Like in more expensive models it can overlay critical information on a high-resolution satellite map, display fake analogue dials, show a simple trip computer, or give information about your media.
It makes the Q2 feel orders of magnitude more grown up, especially when you consider even the top-spec BMW X2 has old-fashioned analogue dials.
The central infotainment screen is a generation old, which means it isn’t touch-operated nor is it running Audi’s latest interface. Instead, it’s run with a rotary controller on the transmission tunnel and a smattering of shortcut buttons.
Using CarPlay is also easier with touch than a rotary controller, which is worth keeping in mind.
Factory satellite navigation is standard, as is wireless phone charging.
Audi Q2 Boot Space
It has 355L of luggage space, expanding to 1000L with the rear seats folded.
Audi Q2 Fuel Economy
The 2023 Audi Q2 uses 5.2L/100km on the combined cycle in the 35 TFSI, 7.0L/100km in the 40 TFSI and 7.7L/100km in the SQ2.

Should you buy the Audi Q2
Does the Audi Q2 deserve to sell in better numbers? Probably.
It’s the least expensive Audi, BMW, or Mercedes-Benz SUV you can buy in Australia, but it isn’t cheap and nasty.
Although the entry-level model feels premium-ish, a extra smattering of special touches and more powerful, all-wheel drive powertrain make the 40 TFSI quattro feel like the smarter pick.
With a starting price below $50,000 it makes the BMW X2 look a bit expensive, provided you don’t dive too deep into the options.
Start ticking boxes, though, and it’s worth considering the more powerful SQ2.
