Reliable, comfortable and compact suv

It?s a smooth drive with elevated control over the road. Very agile and safe. It fits easily in small spaces. Would recommend it to others.

2018 Q3 TFSI disappointing - performance and MMI

1. Disappointing drive experience with 2018 Q3 2.0 TFSI quattro (drives like a diesel van at low speeds and a small car being thrashed when you want to go faster). 2. Antiquated MMI technology with its clumsy controls. Amazing that Audi doesn?t use touch-screen technology like its Japanese competitors. Perhaps a marketing ploy to direct purchasers to the higher end models? 3. Voice activated SatNav disappointing (have to spell out words instead of saying them). 4. Confusing speedometer (non-uniform speed increments in effect make it illegible at a glance). The Q3 is comfortable inside and stylish, but so many little things that I hadn?t initially appreciated have made it a disheartening purchase for me.

Love my SUV

I searched and read reviews on all similar brands and models. This one had everything I was looking for and is beautiful, gets great gas mileage, super comfortable and has most the new gadgets on it.

Foreign cars seem are better value for your money

This is THE BEST vehicle we've owned...Ever! The dash with all the "NEW" technology is easy to understand, which gives you more control over your driving experience. The leg room in this vehicle is incredible, both front and back. Performance is extremely reliable, and the steering is exceptional. Gas mileage is very good as well.

Love my Audi Q3

This car is exactly what I was looking for. Considered a "smaller" SUV, but has plenty of legroom and trunk space. High enough off the ground but not a tall car. Nice ride, the 4 cylinder turbo has good power. Love the look inside and out. Purchased a white car with the two-tone brown/black interior....looks very rich. Nice luxury car with a reasonable price tag.

It is the best choice for me and I could recommend my friends also buy the Audi Car?whatever SUV or other types of Audi cars.

Great small luxury SUV

The Q3 is a great car for someone who wants to get in and out of small parking spots but also wants the liftgate of an SUV with quite a bit of storage, if you put down the second row of seats. I actually wound up buying an Audi Q3 that was coming off lease with low mileage to save some money because it was a Premium Plus and that's what I wanted, but I loved the new one I drove and that is what prompted me to look for one that had all the "bells and whistles" of the Premium Plus model. The Power Fold-in Mirrors save the day when you are trying to squeeze the car into a small garage and you don't want to get out and go around to the passenger side to fold in the mirrors in bad weather. I live in the Northeast, so that happened a lot with my old car. Now, the problems's solved! You can get a cheaper car but not one with all the engineering of an Audi. I'm very happy with mine.

It's just ok

I use this car to commute to and from work. I liked that it was only 4 cylinder, but I am constantly putting gas. I wish I would have gotten a Honda accord instead (I'm a previous owner). The car is really nice, but their is not much room. Perfect for a single rider.

Fun Little CUV

The Q3 has met all my expectations of a luxury CUV. The vehicle is luxurious as well as good looking inside and out. The ride is highly composed with good handling while keeping road and wind noise to a minimum. The interior is made of high quality materials. The Audi dealer experience was top notch. I don't have any children, so this car fits my lifestyle just fine. If space and practicality for your family is what you're looking for, look else where. Otherwise, this is a great CUV!
