In my mind, compact SUVs like the Audi Q2L and Audi Q3 are not realLy Audi SUVs, because Audi's real SUVs are built on the MLB platform, while the Audi Q3 and Audi Q2L are based on the Volkswagen MQB platform, and from the infrastructure point of view, these two cars are actually "Volkswagen", just hanging an Audi logo. Of course, there are also "Audi cars" with Volkswagen logos, such as Volkswagen Touareg and Volkswagen Hui Ang are based on the MLB platform, one is the Volkswagen version of "Audi Q7", and the other is the Volkswagen version of "Audi A6L". So, can the Audi Q3 be bought?
Of course, although it is not based on the MLB platform to create, the dynamic experience in the MQB platform to create the SUV is also among the best, it steering precision, chassis suspension is very tough, power output is also very abundant, driving up a kind of German car heavy feeling, driving experience is not worse than the Volkswagen Tiguan L, if you want to buy a very good to open compact SUV, and there are certain requirements for the brand, Audi Q3 is very good, its price is lower than bmw X3, and avoids the "pit" of the three-cylinder machine, Although the low-end model is the powertrain of the 1.4T engine + 7 wet-fast dual-clutch transmission, the book data of 150 hp/250 Nm plus the fast shift of the 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission is still enough.
If you feel that the 1.4T engine is still unable to meet its own requirements for power output, then you can look at the 40 TFSI model, which is equipped with a 2.0T low-power engine, 186 hp / 320 Nm of book data can have a good power output, its breaking time has also changed from 9.8 seconds of the 1.4T model to 8.8 seconds, and the fuel consumption has not increased significantly, such as the 1.4T model's NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption is 6.7L/100km. The combined fuel consumption of the 2.0T model (40 TFSI) NEDC is 6.8L/100km.
As for the top model (45 TFSI), it is a version that I do not recommend, although its power output is more abundant (220 horsepower / 350 Nm), it is also equipped with a full-time four-wheel drive system, but the price has also risen to 323,600 yuan, although the discount is not small, but the price is not cheap, in other words, this model has no cost performance, and its four-wheel drive system is called "quattro", but it is not a set of things with the quattro on the Audi Q5L. Its four-wheel drive system is the fifth generation of Henderson Haldex all-wheel drive system provided by BorgWarner, and the structure itself is no different from other SUV built on the horizontal platform, and it is not the quadtro four-wheel drive system of the vertical platform.
In terms of interior, the Audi Q3 series is equipped with a 10.25-inch LCD dashboard as standard (the standard model is a 10.25-inch LCD dashboard, and the rest of the models are 12.3-inch LCD dashboards) and a 10.1-inch embedded central control screen, which has a good sense of technology. However, its panoramic sunroof area is very small, far less transparent than the Audi Q5L piece of panoramic sunroof that runs through the front and back. In addition, hybrid seats like leather steering wheels and leather/Alcantara are also standard throughout the series (35 TFSI stylish and elegant leather seats).
Because the audi Q3 is only 4495 * 1848 * 1616mm, the wheelbase is 2680mm, the body size is small in the compact SUV, its rear space will not be very spacious, fortunately, its rear seat supports backrest adjustment and front and rear adjustment, which has a certain help to improve ride comfort, you know, even the rear seat of audi Q5L does not support backrest adjustment and front and rear adjustment. Will this make Audi Q5L owners envious? The comfort of the ride is also affected by its high rear platform bulge, and the riding comfort of the passengers in the middle of the rear row is not very good. In addition, its trunk volume is also decent.
What is Audi's "killer skill"? Quite simply, the offer is great! Audi's well-sold models, which one is not "open" by reducing prices? Audi A6L, Audi Q5L, Audi A4L and other models of preferential treatment are very large, by reducing the price to improve the cost performance, to compete bmw and Mercedes-Benz, has always been Audi's "good play", Audi Q3 is no exception, we learned from Jinan, Shandong, at this stage Audi Q3 has a maximum of 67,300 yuan of discounts, the lowest price is 2021 35 TFSI aggressive dynamic type (elegant type), has dropped to 211,200 yuan, is not better than Tiguan L xiang?
