JAKARTA - Audi India achieved positive results in 2023 by successfully recording 88 percent growth in the first nine months, or a total of more than 5,500 units of sales.

Quoted from the Indian Autocar page, this German brand in 2023 added its portfolio by presenting Q3 Sportback, Q8 e-tron, and Q8 e-tron Sportback. So what are the models for next year?

Reportedly for 2024, Audi will present at least two new facelifts and electric vehicles to India. First there is Audi Q8 facelift, but the changes are only mild in which the front lights are present at HD Matrix LED.

Meanwhile, this one car is still carrying the same engine, namely a 3.0 liter turbo V6 combined with an automatic transmission of eight speeds. This means that not much has changed.

Apart from Q8, the Audi A6 facelift announced for the international market last year will also be present in India. Later there will be changes to the exterior and interior and the addition of several new features that are very interesting.

The updated A6 exterior will get a revised matrix LED forward light with a cleaner DRL display, along with a more prominent single-frame goal. There will also be a new set of wheels offered. 2.0 liter light hybrid turbo gasoline engine powered by 245 hp and an automatic double 7 speed coupling is not expected to change.

Lastly there is an e-tron Q6, a new electric SUV based on the recently developed Premium Platform Electric (PPE) Audi, which is equipped with the latest battery and charging technology as well as the new 'E3' electronic architecture of the brand.

This model is also expected to launch in India, where it will have a range of 600 km. However, not much information has been obtained about this car, it's just that the interior will include Audi's new infotainment technology with a double screen in a curved layout. As the name suggests, the Q6 e-tron is most likely a smaller and more affordable Audi electric SUV, which is below the Q8 e-tron.
