Had a Q3 loaner with the sline, I was thoroughly impressed. I'd def choose it over Q5 and a lot of other cars. Q3 is essentially a car which is why I loved it (I'm not much of a suv guy, mostly cus they're heavy and clumsy).
Would still pick the GLC or GLE coupe if I had the cash cause the MBUX is better and merc has a hybrid system. And has more headroom. Cause honestly, getting 70+ mpg whilst also having 700 Nm of torque is worth every penny. No clue why Audi hasn't caught on with the hybrid game yet. They're already late.

I think Audi does the best “Sportback” versions of their cars! I would definitely still rather have the normal versions though...
The regular version looks better, it's more practical and cheaper. Those who don't care about such things will get the 'sportier' version.
Agreed. Worst are MB’s followed by BMW. These Audi’s look sleek and sportier in a classy way.
I’d just get a saloon, suvs are stupid. They are slower, less practical, less economical, looks worse, more expensive, and handles worse

Hmmm.. very strange
Depends on how you spec the car, no audi comes with flat bottom on entry cars.
A real bisexual petrol-head i think people getting skoda octavia should not be taking part in any conversation about „more expensive looks“ really.
As time goes by, I want interior controls that are more difficult to use than in the past. Thanks Audi!
saw it for the first time and it deadass looks like a mix between a bentayga and an urus
Good to see some brands offering different colors. I absolutely love this green and this Q3.

Not an Audi fan but I must admit that this may be the most elegant and symmetrical design of an SUV sportback/coupe on the roads to this day.
I do find the little compartments under the seat to be rather useful for keeping little things out of the way such as gym gloves.
I think it is really designed for the US market, so you have a concealed, but easy to reach place to store your gun
