Audi India To Launch Q5 In June

Audi will launch its latest sports utility vehicle Q5 in India in June 2009. Audi will introduce the Q5 with 3.0 litre TDI (diesel) and 2.0 litre TFSI (petrol) engines for Indian consumers. The Audi Q5 will be imported as completely built units from Audi’s Ingolstadt facility in Germany.

“The only SUV in India from our stable is Q7, which is doing extremely good even in the present situation. But still some people prefer a smaller SUV and because of this, we have decided to offer Q5 in the Indian market,” Audi spokesperson said.

Q5 was launched in Europe in November 2008, with four versions in both petrol and diesel engines. It is priced between 38,000 Euro and 50,000 Euro in Germany.
