Evolving the tron naming seen with the a3 e-tron Audi has gone a step further with the A3 g-tron. Thats G as in Gas, Compressed Natural Gas. The G-Tron offers a factory installed CNG kit for efficient operation.
The two largest benefits to CNG sourced propulsion are that it cuts c02 emissions and that CNG is cost efficicent to produce and use. Audi claims 100 km of driving will use 3.5kgs of CNG. One kg of CNG costs between 75 cents to a $1.50 depending on location.
Audi also cites 400 km on CNG power alone, while making a combined 1300km between petrol and CNG. It will swap to petrol when CNG levels run low. Enough to satisfy a single fill up per month I'd say...
So the question is do you think Q3 could benefit from this technology? To take it one further will the Q3 see this type of technology?
