In addition to bulky SUVs and sports sedans, Audi makes compact crossovers. The modern Audi Q3 is considered one such example. The car was first presented in 2011. Three years later, the crossover went through a planned restyling, and in 2016, a new restyling was presented again.

Depending on the selected unit, there will be a mechanical or automatic transmission in pair (mechanics only for a 1.4-liter unit). According to the type of drive in Russia, the new Audi Q3 comes with front or all-wheel drive.
