2024 Audi Q3 Gains Standard Adaptive Cruise Control, Starts at $38,195
With Audi planning to launch no new vehicles powered by internal combustion engines after 2026, it’s possible that resources are thin for gas-burning vehicles like the Q3, the current generation of which launched in 2019. Accordingly, updates for the small SUV are few.

In terms of standard equipment, there’s just one update: Adaptive cruise control is now standard across the Q3 line. Other changes are limited to an available wireless phone charger and HomeLink functionality and revised paint options.

The Q3 continues to offer a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine in two strengths. In the Q3 40, it makes 184 horsepower and 221 pounds-feet of torque. In the 45 S Line, output ratchets up to 228 hp and 258 pounds-feet. Both are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.

Audi’s standard safety suite for the Q3 includes forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning, rear cross-traffic monitoring, and front and rear parking sensors.
