Audi Q2 and Audi Q2L differ in terms of body, interior, and power. Below are the specific differences between Audi Q2 and Audi Q2L: Body Dimensions: The body dimensions of the Audi Q2L are 4236mm, 1785mm, 1548mm, with a wheelbase of 2628mm; the body dimensions of the Audi Q2 are 4191mm, 1794mm, 1508mm, 39mm, with a wheelbase of 2601mm. Interior: The interior design of the Audi Q2L is relatively simple, featuring Alcantara leather upholstery and sports seats, while the Audi Q2 only comes with standard leather seats. Power: The Audi Q2L is equipped with a 1.4TFSI engine, delivering a maximum output power of 110KW and a maximum torque of 250NM, paired with a 7-speed S-Tronic transmission, achieving 0-100km/h acceleration in 8.7 seconds. The Audi Q2, on the other hand, is equipped with a 1.0TFSI three-cylinder and 1.4/2.0TFSI four-cylinder engines, matched with a 6-speed manual/7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I drove my friend's Audi Q2 and recently test-drove the Audi Q2L, and the differences were quite noticeable. The Q2L is an extended version with a wheelbase increased by approximately 27 millimeters, resulting in significantly more spacious rear legroom. Getting in, you don't feel cramped, making it especially suitable for Chinese families—practical for outings with elderly parents or children. The body length is also extended, giving it a more elongated look from the side. However, the handling remains largely the same as the Q2, as both are based on a front-wheel-drive platform with unchanged powertrains—still featuring the 1.4T or 1.5T engine. That said, the Q2L offers slightly better stability at high speeds due to its extended design improving aerodynamics. As an everyday car, I prefer the Q2L's larger space because it makes daily commutes more comfortable, especially for long trips where rear passengers won't complain.
