# Drive Wire: Spy Shots Show Off The New Audi SQ2

We have spy shots of the new Audi SQ2 and it’s one of the nicer-looking crossovers we’ve seen. These pictures show the performance version of the Q2, with a blackout treatment and some flares going on. The design has good lines and carries its mass well, with more of a hot-station-wagon look than upright SUV. Power for this model is likely to come from the two-liter turbo four from the S3, which makes a tad under 300 horsepower. In order to keep power down, this model will likely be Quattro all-wheel-drive only. Actually, if Audi goes nuts and does an RSQ2 model with their 360-horsepower five-cylinder, we may forget all about their much-lamented hot “Avant” wagons of years past. Ok, we’d never forget them, but it would still help.
