The Q3 is a small SUV that Audi sells in Europe; at the Detroit Auto Show, they announced that it's coming to America. The "Vail" concept version was bedecked with a ski rack, but this is basically what you'll see in Audi showrooms some time next year. Power comes from a 314 horsepower turbocharged 5-cylinder engine driving all four wheels through a seven-speed automatic transmission.
