Even the new TT has lost its signature lines with no real personality. Which is unfortunate given the nice 2.0T engine.

I'm eyeing the diesel Patriot/Tiguan myself as this Audi will probably be too expensive, but it's good to see we're getting so many choices. :) Cool.

Based on my assumption of the scale of the vehicle (I'm picturing something bigger than an Escape but smaller than an Explorer), this should be a class best. Thinking that it'll be in the RDX/LR2 price range ($35-$42k), it should be a great vehicle. I'd love to see the interior pics soon! I've had an Audi in the past and they are great driving/design/interior vehicles and I'm excited to see the deliverable unit. I also agree that the Q7 came out quite a bit bloated in both design, scale, and price. I completely agree with Anonymous (a very original username btw).

I gues the reasoning is that if socer moms need to drive big SUVs to drop of the kids, then a crossover is even a better idea. Despite the bashing, I have to admit I'd have a look at these (crossovers) when going car shopping.
