Audi Q2 (GA – Model Year 2025)
Audi’s smallest crossover soldiers on until its full-EV successor arrives in 2026. MY 25 adds fresh paint options, new 18-inch wheels, standard MIB 3 with an 8.8-inch touch screen and the 12.3-inch Digital Cockpit plus. The MQB-A0-based chassis, FWD or quattro, and 150 mm ground clearance remain unchanged.

PRO
| PRO | Why it works |
|---|

| Above-class cabin finish | Soft-touch dash, brushed inlays, new micro-fibre / leather sport seats. |
| Sweet 1.5 TFSI ACT | 0-100 km/h in 8.4 s yet 6.0 L/100 km real, thanks to cylinder de-activation. |
| Genuine quattro option | Fifth-gen Haldex gives sure-footed traction on snow and light gravel. |

CON
| CON | Owner feedback |
|---|
| Small boot (405 L) | Captur / 2008 offer 430-440 L; high loading lip, too. |
| Firm ride on 18-inch tyres | Sharp impacts on potholes; 17-inch wheels ride better. |
| Tight rear quarters | Adults over 1.80 m will feel cramped; centre seat is narrow. |
| Dry-clutch DSG quirks (30 TFSI) | Jerks when cold, clutch packs may wear by 90-110 k km in heavy city use. |
| Pricey options | Matrix LEDs, ACC and pano roof push a 35 TFSI S line past €40 k. |
| 40 TFSI oil thirst | About 0.4 L per 3 000 km top-ups considered normal. |

Verdict
The Q2 remains Audi’s entry ticket: compact size, upscale trim and the latest tech in a city-friendly package. The 1.5 TFSI is the sweet spot, balancing punch and economy, while quattro adds winter peace of mind. Downsides are a small boot, firm ride on big wheels and a price that balloons with options. As an urban premium crossover it’s compelling; families needing more space or a cushier ride should look to a Q3—or rival offerings like the Mini Countryman.
