Audi was on the war-footing at the 2018 Paris Motor Show. The brand’s range on display was vast as it was versatile. Kicking things off is the highly-anticipated new Audi Q3. The small SUV has grown in all dimensions, save for its height, and packs in new tech like the virtual cockpit and dual-zone climate control. Alongside the new Q3 was Audi's first ever SUV with an all-electric drivetrain. Yes, we're talking about the e-Tron which Audi seems keen on bringing to India as early as 2020. Aside from offering a quick 0-100kmph time of under 6 seconds, it also has a claimed range of around 400km. Of course, you can expect a heap of Audi luxury inside too. Another SUV that debuted at the Paris Motor Show was Audi's SQ2. This little pocket rocket is what happens when you put a really powerful engine in a small, lightweight body. It's powered by a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine that makes a whopping 300PS of power and 400Nm of torque. That's enough for a 0-100 time of 4.8 seconds. Audi also showcased an updated version of their R8 GT3 racecar. Called the Evo, this version is available as a whole car, or as a kit for existing owners of the GT3. Audi also presented their entry-level hatchback, the A1. Based on the same platform as the Polo, this little thing makes anywhere between 90-150 horsepower and is the starting point for new Audi buyers.
