Engine Choices and Performance
When it comes to performance, both models have a compelling range of engine options. The Audi Q2 offers petrol and diesel variants, with power output varying from 116 HP to a stunning 300 HP. It provides the choice between manual and dual-clutch automatic transmissions, with acceleration times ranging from a respectable 10.5 seconds to a thrilling 4.9 seconds for its sportier models. With a top speed of up to 250 km/h, the Q2 proves that performance is in its DNA.
Conversely, the Mercedes A-Klasse Limousine positions itself as a versatile sedan with an array of powertrains, including petrol, diesel, mild-hybrid electric vehicles, and plug-in hybrids. Its engine options peak at 238 HP, while the A-Klasse takes just 4.8 seconds to reach 100 km/h when equipped with the most potent setup. With a maximum speed of 250 km/h, it rivals the Q2 but with a slightly more sophisticated engineering approach in hybrid variants.
