Audi’s third‑generation Q3 arrives with a 2.0‑liter turbo that churns out 150 kW—about 204 horsepower—and a hefty 320 Nm of torque, letting it sprint from zero to 100 km/h in just 7.1 seconds.
Only two trims, the entry‑level Nova and the higher‑spec Zenith, both powered by the same engine. Inside, the cabin boasts an 11.9‑inch digital gauge cluster, a 12.8‑inch infotainment screen, and a shift lever moved to the steering column for a cleaner centre console.
In the crowded entry‑level luxury SUV arena, the Q3 squares up against BMW X1 and Mercedes‑GLA, offering a sharper look, more tech, and a price that sits just below the German rivals.
The car is built locally at SAVWIPL’s Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar plant, a move that cuts import duties and speeds delivery. Audi also plans to expand its showroom network from 28 to 40 outlets by 2027, targeting tier‑2 and tier‑3 cities.
Bookings opened in September with a ₹1 lakh deposit; the Q3 will roll off the production line in October and hit showrooms across major metros by the end of the year.
