German carmakers have switched their war from a race to power to lineup expansion and according to rumours, Audi is seriously considering a X6 competitor<\/a> on the new-born segment of coup\u00e9 crossover \"2009_bmw_x6_2\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

At a time when German carmakers expand their lineup, it was predictable that Audi or Mercedes would follow BMW in the coup\u00e9 crossover segment. BMW is expected to sell 40,000 X6 this year, which means that the new model won\u2019t be a high-volume vehicle. However with the ambitious goal to increase its global sales to 1.5 million vehicles, Audi is ready to go wild and to set its heart on every new concept.<\/p>\n

The vehicle hasn\u2019t been given the green light yet and any information is pure speculation at this stage. The Audi\u2019s coup\u00e9 crossover might be called Q6, but Q8 wouldn\u2019t be excluded if the company wants the future model to position the future model as an upmarket version of the Q7 SUV.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
