Best petrol engine for Audi Q3?

I'm considering changing my A3 Sportback 1.4 ACT for a Q3. I only do 8k miles pa so assume petrol is best. I've driven the Q3 with the 1.4 ACT engine with auto and it drives very well. Is there any benefit in getting the 2.0 this apart from quattro feature?

The 1.4 TSI ACT 150 is a lovely engine. Smooth, with plenty of torque from low rpm. It's enough.
