New 2019 Audi Q3! Better option than the Q5?

[@stevenmittelbrunn2292]

Great review - Thx. I took delivery of a 2019 Q3 Prestige orange with orange Alcantara trim on the dashboard and doors. Traded in my wife's 2016 Q3, so I feel qualified to compare and contrast the two versions. The new Q3 keeps all the good things of the old, and then it improves every one of them. The engine no longer sounds like a sewing machine. In normal driving, and in conjunction with the 8-speed transmission (old one was a 6-speed), the new Q3 goes like stink! Transmission ratios are perfect to take max advantage of the engine's slightly anemic power. However, the fact that it is not a rocket ship is a good thing: my last car was a 2015 Audi S3, and it scared the heck out of my wife. Final point, and you should have caught it: there is a small storage box on the driver's left, below the headlight switches. Fold up a microfiber cloth and store it in there. You now have a perfect way to wipe fingerprints off the touchscreen, and it's hidden when in use (but perfectly no-look handy when needed). Thanks again for a great and accurate assessment.

This is a REAL REVIEW.

[@armenstaubach9276]

I test dove both of them yesterday and went with Q5; simply because of the ride. I had Tiguan for 4 years, leaving out the electric geeks, the Q3 drive wasn’t that much different from my Tiguan, but man drive with Q5 was whole another level, I just chose Q5.

Totally agree with this! You'll see both the Q3 and Q5 on my channel and the Q5 is definitely my choice out of the two.

I really looove the dashboard of the Q3, and your review (chill and detailed) is awesome, bro! I haven't ridden the Q3 yet, but I've ridden on the Q5, and its comfort level is almost Lexus-like, while the drive is awesome (not X3 levels but good enough)

[@dietrichlook2299]

The positioning of the volume control could be to the right on purpose to make it easier for the passenger to use it since the driver would use the steering wheel volume control. Very informative review, thanks.

[@Creative7inc]

Great review! I just picked up a Q5 because I needed the extra space (2 kids + dog!) but I really liked the Q3. I agree that the interior design of the Q3 is nicer. Overall I’m still happy with the Q5 though. Keep it up, your videos are great 👍🏼

[@ACCELER8TV]

Thanks for the comments! I really appreciate it. Not easy trying to figure out what people want.. still trying to figure out a format. Glad you liked it and enjoy your Q5!

[@feeltennis]

The volume button is for the passenger not for the driver! The driver has all the controls on the steering wheel.

[@ACCELER8TV]

For sure..but it needs to be closer?

[@davidthatcher7875]

A common observation and concern amongst car reviewers of the new Q3 is that the location of the volume dial is on the passenger side so not easy for the driver to use. This exists on both left & right hand drive versions. Whilst they recognise the volume can be adjusted on the steering wheel, the reviewers think it's a bit awkward and possibly an afterthought on Audi's part, which I seriously doubt. That said, I also thought the same after watching a few reviews but I believe the design is meant to be for the passenger's use. It means they can control the volume without disturbing the driver e.g. in case they need to turn it down / up suddenly. It also encourages the driver to keep their hands on the steering wheel especially being the most commonly used function. Maybe I'm wrong but just a thought as to it's design.

[@samnewton5959]

I agree, the volume control on the passenger side is for the passenger. Why would the driver not want to use the volume control which is right in front of them on the steering wheel? It seems obvious to me anyway... Minutiae exaggerated, I hate that in car reviews. Seriously, does anyone really care? I was going to buy the car but the volume knob was a deal-breaker...

[@darrellr8534]

I'm assuming there is a volume control on the steering wheel, so perhaps Audi engineers placed the volume control there primarily for the passengers.

[@armenstaubach9276]

Darrell R Makes sense...

[@serotonin9218]

Yesssss that is what my Audi dealer said.... he said everything is faced towards the driver except the media controls which the passengers can use.

[@gw4583]

The volume button is meant for the passenger. The driver can control the volume with the steering wheel.

[@kucci8157]

It's funny, we just went through this.. We were between a 2020 Q3 and 2020 Q5 - we went with the Q3... The Q5 did not give us enough of a size upgrade to justify the price difference, and both had the same tech and options. Very happy with our decision.

[@EverydayTech__0]

How’s it going so far?

[@fz634]

I’m actually glad they moved the damn volume button. Every time I have a passenger in my A4 they end up somehow bumping the volume button either shutting the system down or blaring the music in our ears

[@mikeliban573]

Best thing ever on Audi ( Porsche) are the highly intuitive , practical non distracting rotary volume/ && controls built into the steering wheel. All other manufactures controls are distracting buttons mixed in with other controls that require time to get used to. ps. Many other manufacturer vehicle controls are more distracting then texting while you drive !!!

[@johnkerrigan6748]

Hello, Quite the comprehensive review, but often overlooked in a spec-by-spec comparison is the actual experience. I traded in my A3 (a fabulous fun car to drive) for a 2019 Q5, over the Q3, principally due to a few attributes that are specifically my preference, top two of which are engine and transmission. The Q3 in Europe has the 7-speed DSG (as did my 2016 A3, which had the earlier 6-speed version) vs the North American 8-speed standard auto with a torque converter. Hence to me the Q3 is no comparison (on the fun scale) to the Q5's earlier and higher torque curve combined with the 7-speed DSG. I essentially drive exclusively in sport/dynamic mode and I would suggest evaluating either model by test driving in this mode. That way you'll see how the car behaves at its best. Note that both the Q3 (transverse) and Q5 (longitudinal) are FWD proprietary vehicles but in the sport/dynamic mode, you'll never no the difference. The Porsche Macan (the Q5's street smart cousin) is proprietary RWD with a very similar drivetrain to the Q5. And honestly, a few inches of cargo space is a concern?! Buy a bloody pickup truck if you're hauling drywall..... Thank you

I’m currently 16 and will be 17 next year, I want this car when I’m a little older, I wasn’t sure which Audi I want Because I was debating between the A6 & Q3 but I’ve finally made my decision to get the Q3, since I go on family trips often and I don’t want to drive anything too small but not too big plus carrying packages and doing grocery shopping will be easy! I also like how it looks, it looks classy and sporty though I’d always drive in comfort mode lol, I really liked your video and thank you for helping me choose!

[@m4st3rm1nd9]

21:14 You say q3 seats are pretty much same as q5. But in q5 video you says q5 seats are one inch wider with more support and comfort, compared to q3.

test drove these back-to-back last weekend. Q3 is pretty sluggish. Bad turbo lag. Q5 is much more fun to drive

[@ACCELER8TV]

Thanks for your reply, i agree with you if you currently drive something faster than the Q3. The Q3 buyer is generally looking for a small SUV with the latest features, and with this one they have nailed it. Im still in shock that Audi after all these years of being anti - touch screen is doing a 180...its like finally Wolfgang, are you done being stubborn and giving the people what they want!

If you are comparing to a Q5, you forgot acceleration. The Q5 is much quicker and much more satisfying to drive hard. Responsiveness of the car when you hit the throttle is just as important as the responsiveness of the digital dash. Audi hit the target in so many ways with the Q3 upgrade. Disappointing that they dropped the ball when it comes to actual vehicle performance. Also, at the 7 minute mark I believe you mean “trickle down” not “hand me down” features from other Audi models - unless Audi is putting used Q8 parts in the new Q3. 🙂

[@ACCELER8TV]

Totally! We’re all waiting for the RSQ3, I think that will come through for us gear heads. I think it all sales related, the older one was slow as molasses but it was fast enough for its buyers. So this being faster is a win. But rsq3 is where it’s at! Thanks for your feedback!

Very good video. The material quality is very good for a compact SUV, but you can find low quality spots. The cover of the door pockets has not the best quality, the air outlets feel a bit cheap, you cannot close the middle console apart from the pocket under the armrest. And you guys all over the world: why do you need more than 150 horse power regarding a boring speed limit everywhere you go? As long as I don’t have to pull a trailer or live in the mountains, outside of Germany no one needs 200+ horse power 😂 Well and if you don’t order “keyless”, you of course still have an ignition lock and the key itself is 100% the same as in the 2005-2012 Audi A3 8P

Its pointless comparing a Q3, on MQB transverse platform, to a Q5, on MLB... Q5 is definitely a notable step up just in drive and stability... MQB is always going to mean fwd based Haldex part time AWD... where as MLB caters for longitudinal engines, and hence proper awd offerings, ie Torsen centre diff.

There's nothing too exciting about the Q3 engine. Most people buying a Q3 or Q5 for that matter care more about the functionality and tech than the engine. You don't buy a Q3 for the engine lol. You'd be buying a SQ3 or RSQ3 if performance was what you were looking for. It's a luxury commuter.

[@girlhive6074]

@@ianmcalpine That's true, you're right, can't argue that but I also need to stay within a budget for my speed and performance expectations ;) haha

Do you know why the US does not get the flat bottom steering wheel in the S-Line package?

[@ACCELER8TV]

Do you have heated wheel?

[@ricetea1]

@@ACCELER8TV No. Our S-Line does not have flat bottom steering wheel which sucks. Don''t call it an S-Line.

[@Ronniezim]

My Sq5 has a flat bottom steering wheel (2019). If you get the cold weather package, steering wheel is heated and round.

Audi Q3 is cheaper than Q5, use regular fuel, small size SUV that’s why many women like them.

Very crisp review !

[@ACCELER8TV]

Thanks Ajay! Much appreciated for the kind words

[@cuocsongomy-trangmangosing4779]

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing

[@arthurberner2023]

a microfiber cloth included in the cabin for dirty fingers make sure it's not get stolen

[@Kevinrulez02]

It's the same price as the Lexus NX, but the NX is considerably bigger, and the NX is a higher level of luxury.

[@ACCELER8TV]

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!

[@brucemadu8535]

Lexus for old men!

[@michelrochette8806]

I compared the two and frankly, the equipment available in the Q3 in addition to the fourth one leaves me puzzled about your comment.

[@schmoestudy]

Current 2019 Q3 owners are saying it’s coded to key and setting is adjustable in mmi!

[@christindemarie]

The word you were looking for is opaque. You used it wrong in describing that it lets light in. Opaque means no transparency at all.

[@ACCELER8TV]

Yes!! That’s it!

[@emopopo]

So torn between Q3 or BMW x3. But I guess I'm getting this one.

[@ACCELER8TV]

if there is specific questions i can answer, let me know!

[@freeukraine850]

You got it wrong on the level of comparison. It should be BMW X1 vs Q3 and X3 vs. Q5.

[@michaelpittana1230]

We own a new Q3 and when you leave the car and hit the door handle it doesn’t lock! What am i missing???

[@ACCELER8TV]

Do you have the push button start? If so, only the front handles work. You have to lightly touch the square on the handle. Let me know if that works!

[@miric121]

what would you choose q5 vs glc300 both 2019?

[@ACCELER8TV]

Have you driven them both?
