I always thought the Audi Q3 was just another dreary small-crossover-SUV. Was I wrong all along?

I just bought a 2014 37000km Q3 TDI to replace a 2012 Jetta which served me faultlessly for 73000km. The 177PS engine has comparatively more lag but the DSG box helps. Overall, the car is highly competent to the extent of being a bit aloof. The Jetta was a little more engaging. However, the rough roads in India means the Q3 is a better compromise.

I bought a MY18 2.0l Diesel Quattro about 7 months ago. I'm in OZ and have done a couple of big trips in it. Having switched from a MY09 BMW X3, I can say I much prefer the AUDI. It is incredibly comfortable, perky for what it is and the SLine auto is terrific. Has the panoramic sun roof, reversing camera, parking sensors and parking assist.The boot space is a little limited, but will take two reasonable sized suitcases and the vehicle is very thrifty. The satNav is a bit clunky and no carplay (I can retrofit the carplay to work with the AUDI MMI system for about $450). I put on a Westfalia tow-bar for trips to the dump. This is now the perfect car, great for around town, great on a long trip and quite sure footed on a dirt road (it's not an off-roader by any means, but is fine on dirt tracks). I bought it with 38k kilometres, so hope to have it for a long time. And would I buy another one, yes.

Another very fair review. The only problem I really have with the Q3 is I think they've been very lazy with the design. They've taken a standard hatchback design and put it on stilts. For me that tends to apply to most of the German SUV designs

@@HighPeakAutos I like to one leg comment. Also funny because I actually did buy a 2017 Q3 because I needed a 4 door with some cargo space (Mr. Sensible). But it's only because I own a 2014 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe (Automatic - 556hp) and a 2018 370z (6speed manual so I do have two legs..lol) (Neither so sensible)..lol But truly most of all, I owned an Audi back in the late 90's and it was the WORST car I ever owned. Everything fell apart. I swore off on any European car. But in looking at these they get high reliability on every review, which is how I came across yours. Thanks for that!

I’m hurt and deeply offended 😱 I love the SUV market and nice to see you have come around at the end of your video. 😉 (that was tongue in cheek) One of our cars is a Mini Countryman Cooper SE. If not driven one. Try it. Pop it in sport mode. Turn off traction control and take it to the nearest “play area” the acceleration is blistering ... more than the claimed 0-60 5.9 seconds (just warm the battery up first to get maximum effect) It’s quirky. Not very mini and you can get three adults in the back. Another car in our family is awful another 2018 car Toyota CHR yuk. Vom. Can’t wait until the lease is up. Slow. Noisy. Useless range. But comfy and a boot my dog gets hunchback in. Love the videos mate. Keep em coming. 🤓

Hmmm... just looking in because I spent 13 years driving a 269 HP V6 toyota RAV4 - a wonderfully peppy and powerful bigger vehicle, yet still called a small SUV. Hardly consider myself predictable. Everything about the style of vehicle, from enjoyability to drive to cost to maintain was good. The Q3 is now a pretty good looking car (the new model, not the one you are reviewing) with big shoulders and pretty decent image. Very exciting looking car.

I had a 2009 Audi A3 1.8Tfsi DSG with 228km's when I bought it.. Audi/VW products are on the expensive side to keep running especially the ever wonderfully highly problematic DSG/S-Tronic automatic gearbox fitted to any Audi/Vw vehicle with those Mechatronics Hydraulic Control Unit & Multiple Clutch Plates. I replaced the Mechatronics unit which cost R22000-00 (zar🇿🇦) to replace. Hence I'll never buy DSG/S-Tronic again, but looking at Q3 1.4T manual, got a fair amount of space in the car & enough ground clearance to not worry about scraping over speed bumps or driveways

Another entertaining video, but I don't get why you buy any Q3 (apart from maybe the RS) when you could get the better driving, slightly smaller outside yet much more spacious inside & practical Skoda Yeti. Identical floorpan & mechanicals & particularly in SE-L or Elegance spec, everything as standard, including your heated, folding mirrors. Xenons, auto headlights, auto wipers, dual zone climate, heated leather, & in my eyes it's Tonka toy 4x4 looks are much more appealing than the Mr Blobby look.

Interestingly for a VAG product in an Australian road test the Tiguan failed a 'flex' so assume Q3 has same problem. During test driver's door frame distorted slightly proving apparently weak frame,,,tangent but interesting...

So I'm picking one up on Friday, and I agree it's a little boring so messing that up a little by taking away the sensible fuel as its the 208BHP model with the park steering assist just for fun whenever I park, though in truth where I park I'm not next to anything. The reason this over something else. My only other car right now is a Morgan +4 which is literally the most impractical car imaginable and my house is over 100 years old and everything needs refurbing as I'm refusing to replace anything with plastic, spent the summer sanding Cast Iron gutters, which are lovely but still sitting next to house, so every night kept awake by rain smacking against the widow sills. So I need something sensible, Waitrose yes (no surprise there), Starbucks, never (well in saying that I worked in India for 3 months and having a SB coffee and a bland sandwich felt like Heaven). This weird car combo runs in the family as my 79year old Dad has a BMW Z4 3.0si and a 900cc R Reg Micra in flat green with no power steering. But the sense of achievement he gets making it up a steep hill surpasses that of the Mercedes experience day we got him as a present. First review of your I've seen, but I'll be back and yes I long for the RR Evoke or perhaps a 4 seater Morgan.

The Q-3 in the States is a little more exciting with their petrol engine choices because our higher emissions standards outlawed their diesel engines. Good review.

Dad has a Q3 2013. 177hp stronic quattro. No major issues. 4wd is great when towing the caravan and the boat and in very deep snow. Fueleconomy is good. Good soundsystem(its not the bose). What I dont like about it. Im a tall person, I sit too high and steeringwheel does not reach far enough. From 2nd to 3rd gear it holds 2nd too long and sometimes hesitates in low speed. No steeringfeel and its too light. Too small inside if you need to move alot of stuff. Too expensive (typical audi) . Quite bad spec because litterally everything is extra, wish it had leather, electric seats, folded mirrors and sunroof.

A friend of mine says the audit q3 is a woman's car. Anyway, is there a chance you could do a review of the kia optima. I looked at one before I did the deal for my Ford ranger. I, d have a look again once the ranger is paid off. BTW the cousin bought a jaguar xf, black 2.2 diesel, white leather inside, smashing.
