Editor's Overview
The 2015 Audi Q3 is a new SUV from the German luxury automaker and now the smallest of its Q lineup. The Q3 isn't as spry or as fuel-efficient as the BMW X1, but the Audi's freshness grants differentiation (for now), while its quality fit and finish and pleasant road manners are similar to those of its bigger brothers.

Owner Reviews
It is not comfortable for 4 passengers and their luggage for a weekend trip.
I like the way the car handles on the freeway and the sound system. The seats are leather, comfortable and adjustable in more ways than most cars I have sat in. I also like the safety feature when backing up. I do not like the interior size - the passengers have no leg room and there is hardly any space for packages, groceries, luggage. Just a very small space compared with my last small SUV. The navigation system is poorly designed and it is not up to date.
Cheap on gas and that's very important.
It is a nice car not to much room in back but fine for kids it's good on gas have not had to have repairs yet. Has a nice CD player, trunk is big. I have a blue one it's a very pretty color. It always starts up even when it was 30 below in Chicago. I do like it a lot nice car good on gas if you travel a lot.
It's very reliable and has had no major problems.
I live in the city and it is a great size for fitting insight parking spaces. I am single without kids and It's also a great size for a single person who doesn't haul a lot. It's been very reliable and I have only had 1 problem outside of routine maintenance. I like the brand status.
