The Audi Q3 was introduced in 2011 and continued in the first generation until 2018, though there were several facelifts that brought newer technology and an upgraded style. Now in its second generation, the Q3 offers more than ever before, including a more muscular appearance.

Used Audi Q3 FAQ's
Is it worth buying a Q3?
If you want a premium crossover with the latest technology, the Audi Q3 may be right for you. However, it can be a little overpriced when compared with some other models and the automatic transmission is unimpressive.
Which cars are similar to the Q3?
The BMW X1 is a top competitor of the Audi Q3. You may also consider the VW Tiguan or the Mercedes-Benz GLA. If you prefer to stay in the Audi lineup, the smaller Q2 or larger Q5 may be desirable.
Is the Audi Q3 a good family car?
Yes, the Audi Q3 is good for families. It has 5 seats with one of the most spacious boots in its class. As well as plenty of leg and headroom for adults and kids alike, there are 3 Isofix points for installing car seats and an electronic window lock that can be operated from the driver-side window controls.
Which engine option should I go for?
Most people opt for either the 35 TFSI or 35 TDI, simply because of the price and lower running costs. If you go down that route, you may prefer to choose the option with the manual gearbox.
Does the Q3 have a comfortable ride?
The Q3 provides a compliant and sporty ride, especially when equipped with a high-powered engine. Inside the cabin, the seats are firm and supportive with plenty of adjustment, allowing you to get comfortable in the driving seat.
What do the numbers such as '30' and '40' mean on Audi Q3s?
A few years ago, Audi revised their engine naming conventions to a sequence of numbers. The higher the number, the more powerful the engine, and vice versa.
Which Q3 models should I look out for?
SE models are the entry-level version, and while they are well equipped, they lack the stylish exterior features that S Line and Black Edition models are fitted with. So if you're after the best-looking versions, they're the ones to go for.
What are the drivetrain options in an Audi Q3?
Q3s comes in either front-wheel drive or Quattro all-wheel drive depending on the type and size of the engine. Mostly, 2.0 TFSI and more powerful diesel engines come as all-wheel drive as standard, while the less powerful come in front-wheel drive.
