Audi A3
First up on this list is the Audi A3, expected to launch in January 2023. Despite being the company's entry-level vehicle, the first-generation Audi A3 drove, felt, and looked the way Audi cars in India should. In its new form, the compact sedan adheres to Audi's current design language. Highlights of the New A3 will include a sizable single-frame grille, angular headlights with integrated DRLs that, intriguingly, will differ for each version of the A3, and taillamps with distinctive LED signatures.
2023 New Audi A3 will offer significant technological upgrades on the inside. Audi's 10.25-inch Virtual Cockpit and a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system will be included in the top-spec models. Although there is less passenger space than the larger A4, the seats themselves are said to be quite supportive and comfy.
The current 1.5-liter turbo-petrol engine in the Indian-spec A3 is anticipated to have cylinder deactivation technology for better fuel economy. The front wheels will receive power through a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. We won't be using any diesel engines at all.
Audi Q8 E-tron
Audi is giving its remarkable electric SUV a facelift after four years of devoted service! By changing its name from "e-tron" to "Q8 e-tron," it has created a new position for itself. It receives a redesigned grille and a light strip that is discretely incorporated into the grille's upper portion. The Q8 e-tron, however, benefits from the fact that the original vehicle was already a wise investment.
Additionally, it now looks smarter and is believed to drive better too. Its battery pack will be bigger than the current generation, which will lead to improved electric range. The new Q8 e-tron is a great choice if you’re looking for an electric family SUV.

Audi SQ7
Over the course of its long history, Audi has produced a number of performance-oriented vehicles, and it has continued this legacy by making its large, hulking SUV more crazier. The Audi SQ7, is the Audi Q7's new, angrier cousin, which already features a potent TDI diesel engine.
A 4-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol engine will power the SQ7. It is said to produce a maximum power output of 429 bhp with 770 Nm of peak torque, ranking it among the most powerful SUVs in the world. Its gasoline engine has a Cylinder on Demand (COD) technology, which temporarily turns off half the cylinders at modest speeds to increase efficiency.
Later in 2023, the SQ7 is anticipated to enter the Indian market. Pricing-wise, it will likely cost more money than the Q7 Facelift, which is also scheduled to be launched in India soon.
Audi S7
The Audi A7 and RS7 are already in the market here. Audi will also be releasing the S7 variant of the vehicle because of the popularity of both of these models among the country's wealthy consumers. Right in the center of the A7 and the RS7 sits the S7. The S7 combines the characteristics of both the A7, a leisurely cruiser, and the RS7, a mad super saloon.
It is not as powerful as the RS7, but neither is it as calm as the A7. A 4.0-liter V8 petrol engine powers this machine producing 450bhp and 550 Nm torque. The engine is coupled to a 7-speed DSG automatic transmission, which uses Audi’s Quattro all wheel drive system to send power to all the four wheels.
Audi A1
It is an entry-level luxury hatchback made by Audi since 2010. The A1 will debut as Audi's first hatchback in India and is built on the same platform as the VW Polo and Skoda Fabia. The A1 is available in two body types worldwide: the 3-door and 5-door (Sportback).
The latter is most likely on its way to us because it fits our market better. A 1.4 TFSI gasoline engine and a 1.6 TDI diesel powertrain are available with the A1. The variant made specifically for India will include a 7-speed S Tronic automatic transmission.
