We would wait for the upcoming Audi Q3, whose launch is just around the corner, before making this decision as it promises to be the most contemporary of its peers in the segment. Audi wants to make up for lost time with the new Q3 and we understand the brand is leaving no stone unturned with this new model, equipping it with the 2.0 TFSI engine and Quattro AWD. It also promises to have the brand's latest tech, as well as a long features list, to make it attractive in this competitive segment. While the A4 sedan is a good deal right now at the end of its life, it may feel a bit too dated, and the new A5 will arrive by the end of the year. As for the X1, unless you're chauffeur driven, it isn't the best choice here. As you're coming from a CLA, the new CLA EV might be a good option, as your usage could fit within the constraints of an EV, and the CLA EV has exceptional range. It will, however, push slightly past your Rs. 60 lakh (on road) budget. Either way, we would recommend waiting for the India-spec Q3 before making a call, as it could be the best fit for you.
