Driving Audi’s compact Q3 SUV today – available in both five-door Wagon and Sportback. The Q3, Audi’s best seller, and the biggest selling small prestige SUV. I’m driving the Audi Q3 2.0-litre turbo 40TFSI quattro S-line Sportback, $78,245 drive-away, not inexpensive today but importantly, still under the luxury car tax threshold. The Audi Q3 Sportback has always appealed, the perfect package size, the sloped roof giving it a sporty feel. Powered by a 2.0-litre turbo driving through a seven-speed automatic to all four wheels plus Audi drive select with four different drive modes – this aspect so rewarding – all-wheel drive giving it a solid footprint on the road with well shod 20-inch alloy wheels. The Audi Q3 Sportback excels in interior room, seat comfort, 360-degree cameras, power front seats, leather trim, a great dash and instrumentation and thankfully knobs and buttons for temperature and fan speed, far superior to the touchscreen functionality of many cars today. It also features a full gamut of infotainment services like weather, fuel prices and Google services plus Audi virtual cockpit plus with a digital configurable instrument cluster and much more. Warranty five- years/unlimited kilometre. The Audi Q3 Sportback remains an impressive compact premium SUV and one can see why it is so popular. I’m David Berthon
