Audi brings upscale luxury to downsized crossover.
Already known for building vehicles of seemingly every dimension, from the subcompact A1 to the three-row Q7 crossover SUV, Audi has found yet another vehicular niche. The 2012 Audi Q3 fits into the newish, compact luxury crossover segment populated thus far by BMW's recently launched X1, which will serve as the Q3's chief foil. The Q3 was previewed by Audi's Cross Coupe Quattro concept at the 2007 Shanghai auto show, and now the production version returns to Shanghai for its official bow.
