What’s new in the 2022 Audi Q3? 

The Audi Q3 is a second generation model that first debuted globally in 2018. It was expected to replace the India-spec first generation Q3 in 2020, but the plans were delayed owing to the coronavirus pandemic. 

The all-new compact SUV has muscular body lines and a more SUV-esque raised stance. Up front, it has larger headlights than its predecessor, with a hexagonal front grille similar to the Q5 SUV. 

The larger SUV inspires the new Q3’s overall design language, and the smaller SUV features similar creased body lines on the sides. At the rear, it gets split LED taillights with sharp diffused lighting elements. 

Inside, the new Q3 has a 10.25-inch Audi Cockpit digital driver’s display and a dashboard-mounted touchscreen similar to the e-tron SUV. It’s paired with a Bang and Olufsen 3D sound system that produces 680 watts. 

The Audi Q3 is likely to be powered by a 2-litre petrol engine, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and Quattro all-wheel-drive (AWD) system. 

New safety tech for Audi Q3 

The new Audi Q3 is expected to offer advanced driver assistance and active safety features. These include adaptive cruise control, park assist, traffic jam assist, a 360-degree surround view camera, lane keeping assist, adaptive headlights and front collision avoidance.
