Audi will launch a new crossover positioned below its Q3 in 2016, the automaker confirmed today. To be called the Q1, the new crossover will fit in the subcompact segment and will compete against similar tall-riding premium vehicles like the Buick Encore and MINI Cooper Countryman. In this teaser photo, a five-door crossover is shown with rugged looks and an aggressive grille similar to that found on Audi’s Crosslane concept car from 2012. A similar look is expected to feature on the 2015 Audi Q7. Front-wheel drive will be standard, with all-wheel drive possibly available as an option. Engines would be four-cylinder units.
