Audi reveals upgraded SQ2 with sharper design and new connected features

Audi has revised the sporty SQ2 SUV, which debuted two years ago, with more striking and even sharper appearance as well as new connected services and assist systems.

Thanks to the new headlights and bumpers, the SQ2 looks sportier. The car gets new Matrix LED headlights with intelligent high-beam control as an alternative to standard LED headlights. In the side view of the revised Audi SQ2, the aluminum-look mirror housings, the strips along the sills, the roof edge spoiler, and the silver blades on the C-pillar add accents.

The octagonal Singleframe on the car are now slightly lower. There are narrow slits between the grille and the hood. Wide frames painted in selenite silver surround the large implied air inlets.

The Audi connect services on the SQ2 are available on the top-of-the-line infotainment system with LTE plus speed on board and a Wi-Fi hotspot that integrates the passengers' mobile devices. New features include emergency call & service and remote & control that are both part of the standard equipment. They allow the owner to lock the vehicle remotely or check the fuel level. To do this, owners can use the myAudi app on their smartphones.
