New-gen Audi Q3 Launching This Festive Season To rival BMW X1 and Mercedes GLA Only the turbo petrol version will be on offer
The much-anticipated new-generation Audi Q3 is expected to be launched in the Indian market in next few months. In fact, testing of the new SUV has already been commenced on the Indian roads. The 2026 Audi Q3 comes with all-new exterior and interior along with a longer list of features and new tech.
Estimated Price and Competition
The new Audi Q3 will take on the likes of the BMW X1 and the Mercedes-Benz GLA. We expect the new Q3 to price somewhere around Rs 50 lakh.
Engine Specifications
The 2026 Audi Q3 will be powered by a 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder, turbocharged petrol engine that produces 204hp. This engine is paired to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox that sends power to all four wheels via Audi’s Quattro AWD system. It is claimed to achieve 0-100kph acceleration in just 7.1 seconds.
While the European market gets petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid powertrains for the new Q3, the India-spec model won’t be offered with these powertrains.
Key Features
The new-generation Audi Q3 comes with dual displays, including a 11.9-inch digital driver’s display and a 12.9-inch touchscreen infotainment unit with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay support. The SUV has minimalistic interiors with AC controls and other functions can only be adjusted via the screen.
It comes equipped with Matrix LED headlamps, wireless phone charging, configurable ambient lighting, a 360-degree surround view camera, a 3-zone automatic climate control, 12-speaker Sonos sound system and a sunroof. The SUV will also get ADAS Suite with features like autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane assist and others. The SUV comes with a boot space of 488-litres, which can be further expanded by folding the rear seats. It comes with a 40:20:40 split seat folding.
The new-gen Audi Q3 gets a bold and modern design, featuring a large hexagonal front grille with Audi’s new 2D logo. Its headlights are upgraded with digital Matrix LED technology. At the back, the SUV gets split tail-lights, optional OLED lighting, and an illuminated Audi logo bar.
