You are wrong about premium fuel - this car is recommended for regular fuel and this is one of the big plus.

I bought my 2020 Q3 S-line premium used from a covid leaser. Paid $29k for a car with 7K miles. It's the perfect size and so much fun. I bought it with low miles...these cars need driven!!! It probably sat for weeks at a time. Luckily, the warranty is still active. Had a bad fuel sensor. Fixed for free and given a loaner. It'a the perfect car if you have 1 child, or a dog. You want to zoom away from traffic, need something that grips the snow during the winter. Until they do a redesign, I wouldn't buy one new.

I have a 22 Q3, just like this. With brown Interior. I absolutely love it! Worth every penny especially when you get the S line. Looks way better

I am a teenager who got their permit not that long ago, and my parents were generous enough to get me the brand new Audi q3 Quattro (same exterior in video and brown leather seatings) s-line, and I wanna say that driving this car is so comforting and it drives amazingly!!! I am very excited to drive this to high school next year when I get my drivers license, but as if now, I gotta drive with my parents in the vehicle.

Ive had the 2017 Q3 & the new one now. Love it. Its beautiful, drives well (in city & long distance), its comfortable, & a major benefit is that it uses regular gas. I never cared about ventilated seats so that didnt matter. Heated seats in the winter are a must & it has that.

Not everyone cares about ventilated seats. I have a ‘22 Q3 and the AC works so well that I never feel the need for cool seats AND I’m in Florida.

Totally agree with nathan, for that price not having vented seats is not an excuse when Kia can do it in more affordable vehicles.

Nice to see something other than a black interior!

I see the huge front grills are turning into a hot trend

First review I’ve seen mention the stereo and how it handles heavy metal and punk, these things are important! Thanks

I chose the 185bhp progressive (40 tfsi) trim. I feel I should have taken the 45tfsi. Haven't received the car. Kind of feeling bad now.

Heated seat are part of the comfort pack, Which also has Sonos Sound but not the quality of the BO.

I care a lot about knee width. I can honestly say that I find Q3 spacious.

I previously owned an A3 sedan followed by an A5 sport back prior to my Q3. To sum it all up, it’s an otherwise wonderful premium vehicle that’s let down by a not so premium drivetrain. The 45 2 litre engine sounds extremely grainy at high RPM and the 8 speed transmission is what really lets this vehicle down. Clunky rough shifting in higher gears and it gets even worse as it lurches through downshifts when braking. Everything else however is typical top notch Audi. A gorgeous modern interior, solid quality finishes and the baby Q8 design. In winter driving while the Haldex AWD is not real “Quattro” performs extremely well in slippery conditions with barely any hesitation in kicking the other wheels into motion for seamless traction. My advice? Spring for the Q5 and enjoy the refinement that a real Audi should be known for.

Shame you cannot order vehicles the way you want them and not the way the dealership wants you to pay for them. No, I don't need fancy wheels. No, I don't need leather wrapped bumpers. No, I don't need headlights that wink at other Audi's. No, I don't need the emblems that cost another 5K. Etc.

I always thought the sweat spot with be an SQ3 with the engine from the S3.

I loved my Q3! But I love my Macan much more :-)

Thank u for the video me and my girlfriend are driving the q3 cause we are renting it. Very informative video thank u very much.

Great honest review. Love the looks, not the price.

Excellent review.

All i gotta say is audi put me in a hard spot so I got the 184 hp but its fully loaded . Gonna mod it soon

Excellent review Nathan. Factual and honest.

I'm curious to see what TFL thinks about the 2023 BMW X1.

I got the Fully loaed vw Taos.. just as nice and saved $$

I thought this car drove on regular gas. I was looking at this but prefer the new X1 which uses premium fuel. I'm also going to check out the CX50 which is about 3k less with the turbo engine. I'd buy a EV6 AWD if they actually reopened the order books in Canada.

I love the honest review Nathan. My wife was looking at this we may go with the Genesis.

HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY EVERYONE

im hearing a lot of stories of poor quality workmanship throughout all model range over last few years on these audis. forums are full of complaints about that rattles, squeeking plastic parts etc

Another great Nathan review! I thought it’d cost over $50,000, so I was pleasantly surprised.

At least it's better than the Infiniti QX50, but there are better options in this segment for the price or even cheaper. And this one has the Volkswagen 2.0 turbo that they've been using for years with all the issues they have. If you insist on an Audi but you still want performance there's the SQ3...but do they even make those anymore?

I wish they wouldn’t put these massive alloys but I can see it may handle a bit better , first thing I do is change the tyres . That extra 5 / ( 45/50 eg ) makes all the difference. I can’t afford new but tempted with a Q3/Q5 used

I just test drove a CX 50 today and when you said Mazda, CX five, brother ain’t no freaking way. Part time all-wheel-drive versus Quattro no way Jose.

Q3 uses regular not premium. It's the same as a3.

Howdy Nathan!

Seems to me that for the same money you can get a car that's almost as pretty if not as pretty that has more utility and probably as much comfort. You would just have the give up the Prestige of the name badge that's on it. And personally I'm more interested in value than Prestige of a name badge.

The Mazda cx-5 would not slaughter the Q3. The Q3 seats are more comfortable and it is slightly faster from 0-60.

7:05 exact same buttons in my 2016 A3 lol

You are wrong about the fuel - Audi recommends 87 octane (regular) gas - not premium (at least here in California).

50k for a small German SUV is not expensive. A jetta cost 30k now. An m3 is 100k now. So...

20" wheels?😲 Most full size SUVs max out at 18".

UK q3 40 TFSi 190 BHP q3 45 TFSi 220BHP🤔

This takes REGULAR fuel, not premium....87 octane.

Me gusta el Audi para Cristian

Nice ride, but under-powered and a clunky transmission. Spend a little more and get a Q5… far superior vehicle.

At 7:21 forward, the windshield silicone is a big mess. This Q3 is really nice looking, but I will never trust a VW again.

With that money I can buy the new HRV for me and the Corolla Cross for my wife good video 👍🏽

lean back a lil for better visibility ……

Hey my name is Nathan too

This is basically a GTI.

The power is the disappointment

I will manifest this car, but in black.

I like my 23 CX 50 turbo premium better :)

You dont seem to like audi lol. To be honest i dont like it ether. I bought an A4 sline and returned after a month. Disappointed from a luxury vehicle. Even the cheap companies are giving more luxury for smaller prices. Very expensive vehicles with less

no

Beefier Engine? It's the same old, self-destructing, Volkswagen 2 L they put in pretty much everything. I can practically hear the timing set working itself loose

10 years in my last and final Audi. The first gen TT. 225hp with a six speed manual. Put 70k on it. Never another Audi (unless some has a UR Quattro Coupe they want to give me...)

Audi has full spare, not donut.

The equivalent Genesis is the GV70, not the G70 (which is a sedan). And unlike this, the styling of the GV70 makes it a chick's car, in my opinion. As a guy, I'd go with the Audi.

Regular gaz

Rented one for a week last year and not impressed at all. Cheap plastic interior and driver window does not go up when you turn off the car. Way overpriced

1st 🤗

You do need premium fuel for the Q3's. The manuel says reg unleaded is okay. I get 26mpg on the freeway for trips over 50 miles. I get 16-20 mpg using the freeways and bouncing around town. She eats and drinks gasss!!!

Overpriced AF

Just buy the Mazda CX50. It looks better, is premium, is faster, more reliable, with just as much utility for less.

why is this car so ugly

A $43,000 profit sent to my portfolio each week, Ms. Angela cole car is amazing.

I'd like to see you and Andre and Roman lose 25# at least for your health. You can do it by diet only.

CX5 will only last about 3-4 years before oil leaks and shit goes wrong with it, with the Audi Q3 you won’t have any trouble for 10 years +.

*~*~*~ Initial cost is high...................HOWEVER That is just the BEGINNING...........Servuce is VERY expensive twice that of a LEXUS.........The Insurance is going to be higher....& Worst of all your initial cost / investment will Absolutly Plummet you will loose $40 to 50 K in three years......While my wifes Lexus RX 350 has gone up in resale value 72 .00 Oil Change and freak'N AUDI is $164
