I’m strongly considering in for a replacement for my current Audi Q3 1.4 tfsi. My only concern is that it will be down on power - 140bhp against 150bhp and impact on acceleration when overtaking. Ideally would like a 20i but need a manual as other family will be driving.

Thanks
Hello Pganders,

Thanks for your question.

No I am not going to bother testing the 1.8i.

The reason I am going for the 1.8d is very similar to your own, I have an Audi A3 1.4TFSI and I would appreciate the extra 10 bhp for overtaking.

In some of my earlier posts there was a respondent from Greece who drove a 1.8i so you could try to get his opinions.
