"Your car enthusiasts family, Thomas!" Yes. We really appreciate and understand how much work, research and professionalism you put into your channel. HUD, good. No DCC! Don't like a jarring slow speed ride. Expense: options, options, options. Great Full Review, with ace driving part - many thanks.
Great video. Nothing heard from Thomas now for five days or so; hope he's enjoying a nice break and holiday after the busy IAA Frankfurt, and hasn't been head-hunted or something! We really appreciate your work. Many thanks.
Great video. 60K for this SQ2 is far too much. Audi taking the mickey. Would prefer a full-spec Q3 Sportback for less. Wait, no, would prefer a full-spec Tiguan SWB for less still, and it's better equipped!
Execelent review and great grey color. The seat's form is so so nice looking (not talking about the materialns or comfort neither for the not so pleasing red color but for their form looking so sharp and just perfect)
Love the colour matching - I wish we could drive at those speeds in Australia but it is not possible due to very restricted speed limits and rubbish roads!
Thomas ❤ Vielen Dank 🙏 Just bought an SQ2 because of you I was looking at a VW T ROC R …… but your review convinced me to go FIRST CLASS What a BEAST Mach’s Gut 👊 Ps Launch Control O M F G 💨
Lol Thomas, you should patent that sentence of yours... "In full HD, full screen and full length" ... Am always looking forward to you saying that in every video.🤣🤣
The first thing I noticed is how committed Thomas doing his job! Look how he has put extra effort to very last detail in his attire to in sync with the car lol I hope he dressed himself 😂😍
Many thanks for a great indepth review.. it helped make my mind up and i picked it up a week ago... socially distant handover so my 1st drive home from the dealer was a joy... i went for the same colour/spec as the car you reviewed... Keep up the good work and thanks again 👍
Nice fast small SUV. But very expensive . 60 grand for this , ouch !!!! I think I''ll' stick to an normal 'less powerful" car like the Q3 SPORTBACK INSTEAD OF THIS . Super detailed review Thomas , see ya !!!
Thomas to answer your question - you are lucky not to need Lumbar Adjustment, I get lower back pain in almost every car which doesn’t have it. The only exception I found were the wonderful Recaro seats fitted to the ‘80s Hot Hatches of my youth - Astra GTE (Kadett GSI mk1) and Escort RS1600i. Whatever happened to Recaro seats as standard!?
I like the car but it is quite pricey, I don't know that it's worth it in the end. Maybe buying it used with like 30k km. But wasn't this launched like 2 years ago? Is this a refresh?
I do like this model of Audi. It’s more adventurous styling wise which is refreshing as I find many Audi models look the same. Especially like the exterior side styling. Not a fan of those horrid coloured vents, they look cheap and aftermarket. Otherwise I’d buy it.
If you take a look at our driving parts of the reviews, you see that we of course have clip-on microphones. However there are several good reasons to use the handheld microphone very often, we do that intentionally. See more details here: th-cam.com/video/q8mbwezd_VY/w-d-xo.html
The biggest obstacle that car would tackle is a curb so let it be as chunky as it wants. The missing black plastic around the wheel openings is missing because without them it appeals to woman and snobs.
Hi Thomas, I was hoping you could make a review of the Dacia Duster 4x4 with the new 1.3 turbo petrol engine with either 130ps or 150ps. I love watching your reviews as I'm 188cm and seating position and comfort is critical for me. Since you are 186cm (or 6'1 ;)) it's great reference to see if any car you review is good for me. Any ideas if a hybrid is coming for the Dacia range? Greetings from Finland.
@@autogefuehl thanks for the answer. That's unfortunate. Really weird marketing from the brand 🤔. What's your favourite smallish SUV with low co2, good ground clearance, max 30k euros? 4wd optional. Mainly city driving and maybe a bit over 10 000km of driving per year.
What's your take on the SQ2 vs its stable make twin the VW T-Roc R, in terms of design, interior, equipment and price vs the Audi? Love to see a review of that.
@@autogefuehl thanks as it's a possible fir my next car and love your in depth reviews. Do like the exterior design of the T-Roc R over the SQ2, equipment I feel is better standard as don't think with price of the SQ2 virtual cockpit should be extra option, your thoughts?
how tall is Thomas? Is that measuring stick long enough to measure his height? I really like this car but when I see these acceleration tests all I can think of is the Godzilla and your reaction..... everything else is lame. Thanks for the great review old Thomas. This car looks really funky and chunky. I like.
@@autogefuehl I saw them. If you would have to pick one, which one would you pick? I would definitely go for the Cupra Ateca and safe the extra money for petrol to enjoy the car!
Thomas, no offense but I genuinely don't understand your obsession about super soft touch materials on the interior doors ! I mean, the import thing is that there is no scratchy, hollow sounding hard plastic surface, right ? The Q2 ( and other cars ) have definitely nice soft touch surfaces on the top part of the door, just not super thick foamed up one's. Why is it so important for this part to be as much soft touch as the dashboard, where you can poke 1cm into it ? I think you over exaggerate there a bit since the main concern should be how it generally looks and feels, no ? And it sure feels high class and premium to me, even if you can poke into it just a bit. But is this really the benchmark for quality ?
great review as always, poor colour (primer grey), way overpriced for what it is, and no adaptive suspension is crazy -- come on Audi, most other manufactures allow you to put the seats down from the boot/truck, for the SQ2 money, they could be controlled up and down!
Professional video as per normal with Autogefuhl, as for the car it does nothing for me, same old thing, same old electronics, same old ride, same old performance, same old economy. Most manufacturers if not all have reached there optimum in just about everything that the public wants, just mudane cars for the masses and nothing different.
These small fake suv's are neither good suv's or sporty. People should be offended that these car brands are marketing cheap shit boxes as luxury. Just work hard and buy a regular size luxury vehicle. Buying a cheap luxury car is pathetic. Is it not better to drive the top of the line non-luxury vehicle, save money, than spend much to much on a low level luxury car that has less equipment ? They make these vehicles because they want to steal your money by tricking you into buying a crap car with a luxury badge on it.
What I think you're saying at the end there is: People buy a poverty spec Audi Q3 rather than a less costly full-option Tiguan with everything on it. Strange. But that's the market and the way it goes! People like 'perceived' more expensive cars, for the image in the neighbourhood. Audis are more expensive VW's often with less stuff. Seat and Skoda are less expensive VW's with less stuff! VW Group think they have it covered - customers that are richer still, can buy a Macan/Cayenne, or anything upwards... The rich (most of them!) want an expensive car!
You both look like a match made in heaven, all matching in grey. Just lovely to see a German guy reviewing German cars. Wunderbar !!!
=)
And not to forget; Thomas is 186cm or 6 foot 1.
@Christopher Palmer But he doesn't have anything like the style of Thomas!
I wanna see Doug review Thomas’ quirks and features
@Christopher Palmer Lol!
Animal skin, for example!
1foot = ??cm ,please

Love the launch control intro scene. Well done.
The car that outruns the new A35 AMG in a dragrace. What a machine!
Oh that’s a lovely car. I’m sold. Who better than Thomas to review it, great job as always. 👍🏻

thanks so much! Dont be mistaken, much is coming up! =)
Great news - many thanks :-)
Excellent review. What other channels lack in professional, this one has in spades
thanks so much! =) Hope you ve subscribed to both of our channels!
Looking 4ward to the SQ3...keep up the good work guys on your reviews...extremely detail in your car reviews unlike some channels...well done...
thanks so much! Please recommend us =)
Agreed. The one I'm waiting for is the SQ3 Sportback.
@@jeffs6090 Sorry for being late........but there wont be the SQ3. Only RSQ3..........
The day time lights look very familiar ( Volvo???), great review btw, thanks.
Great video. 60K for this SQ2 is far too much. Audi taking the mickey. Would prefer a full-spec Q3 Sportback for less. Wait, no, would prefer a full-spec Tiguan SWB for less still, and it's better equipped!
Yep. The Tiguan 162tsi petrol turbo Wolfsburg Edition.
The niece knees line was hilarious 😂👍🏻 I do use lumbar support to arch my back slightly so I'm more upright.
😂
0:19 5:04 No standard folding mirrors and 7:05 only manual seat adjustment on an SQ model seems just mean.
Execelent review and great grey color. The seat's form is so so nice looking (not talking about the materialns or comfort neither for the not so pleasing red color but for their form looking so sharp and just perfect)

Great review Thomas. SQ2 vs tiguan r will be quite interesting.
I'm sorry but I hear a lot of noise coming from the tires. Has the Q2 not enough sound insulation?
Thanks Thomas. Great car....you look to need a break. C Ya from Australia.
Lol Thomas, you should patent that sentence of yours... "In full HD, full screen and full length" ... Am always looking forward to you saying that in every video.🤣🤣

Thanks for your comments concerning premium and non premium cars. Can you do the test of the CX5 and new Countryman JCW?
TH-cam search Autogefuehl mazda cx5 and u ll find plenty!
Same to countryman jcw, We have all reviews:)
@@autogefuehl ok. Thanks.
@@autogefuehl ok. I saw JCW (red one), now is new one with new engine 306hp.
Thomas the back looks like a VW POLO. Awesome video!
Hi, Is the Audi Q2 taller than the Audi SQ2 ?
Thomas to answer your question - you are lucky not to need Lumbar Adjustment, I get lower back pain in almost every car which doesn’t have it.
The only exception I found were the wonderful Recaro seats fitted to the ‘80s Hot Hatches of my youth - Astra GTE (Kadett GSI mk1) and Escort RS1600i. Whatever happened to Recaro seats as standard!?
Well i do get lower backpain _when_ i use it :)
Perfect car for daily driving
I am a fan od this guy!
🙏🙏
do you know if the SQ2 will come to USA?
I dont think so
I like the car but it is quite pricey, I don't know that it's worth it in the end. Maybe buying it used with like 30k km.

Is this the Q2 tfsi 30 5d?
Will you Review the Facelift Version?
Thomas dropped the mic! Whoa

I love this car , I need this car
I love lombar suport!
I agree the off road look is a necessity on a vehicle like this. Body colour trim makes it too chunky
The biggest obstacle that car would tackle is a curb so let it be as chunky as it wants. The missing black plastic around the wheel openings is missing because without them it appeals to woman and snobs.

This or the Cupra Ateca? Which is bigger and cheaper.
TH-cam search autogefuehl Cupra ateca for our reviews
@@autogefuehl I saw them. If you would have to pick one, which one would you pick? I would definitely go for the Cupra Ateca and safe the extra money for petrol to enjoy the car!
Thomas, was it a pure coincidence that your outfit colours matches the colour of the test car, hmm......? Like the Audi SQ2 stylish exterior
No coincidence 😎
@@autogefuehl 😊 good colour combination 👍
I've never been a fan of battleship/primer grey.
Call of the day Sir.

Its a detail that is important to a lot of people
@@autogefuehl Yes, to me too. I think the material is fine and classy enough.
So you buy a S4, and get fake exhaust. You get the 2nd lower car of the brand and get 4 real exhaust. Are they crazy?
Thank you
Great review, Audi are slowly becoming beige.

Do you always coordinate clothes with the car you are reviewing?
If I can and I know the color before, yes :)
Buy this in two years after the 33% depreciation and it’ll be worthwhile.
One of my least favourite Audis, I'm completely underwhelmed by it.
The cheap plastic inserts at the inside of the doors are disgusting in a car at this pricetag. It's an Audi. Not a Seat, Skoda or Volkswagen.
Thank goodness the latest version ditched the Quattro stickers on the doors. Looks tacky.
No I want a luxurious and fast SUV. Here's something else to recommend 799,000 kr that's my max budget.
great review as always, poor colour (primer grey), way overpriced for what it is, and no adaptive suspension is crazy -- come on Audi, most other manufactures allow you to put the seats down from the boot/truck, for the SQ2 money, they could be controlled up and down!
Interior is a 1 on 1 copie of the Kia Stinger.
Just that this one was out earlier than the Stinger :)
@@autogefuehl O oke, good to know that. Thanks.
But I wanna buy one for my k-niece 😁😂

I would pick a mini countryman JCW (306hp and a more sporty feeling) over the audi
Dont like the interior ! Sounds cheap and identical to S3 ! They could have changed it

Ronin I thought so too...
Is it?? Check 2012 Audi R8 facelift.
Tero Kaakinen that is not even close to this hammer like DRL. Is more like a hook those r8 DRLs
Way overpriced.. interior like S3, cheap plastics everywhere. Seats are attractive but everything felt decidedly VW..
The Interior looks really cheap.

That looks ugly soory
