Over two million Audi Q3s have been sold since 2011.
So it’s time for a new generation, and here’s our first look at the new 2025 Audi Q3. And, as you can see, there’s not a lot to talk about.
Audi’s cheeky teaser image shows a slimmer headlight than the current Q3, with LED pixel elements. Just like Audi’s recent releases – the Q5 and Q6 – it looks like the Q3 will have selectable light designs, clever animation sequences and the ability to have high-beam power without blinding other drivers.
The grille is likely to be wider than the current car, and there’ll be a new selection of alloy wheels and monochrome paint colours.
Recent Audi releases have been more expensive than the Q3 will be, and all have all had impressive, curving 14.5-inch touchscreens – with the option of a third screen for the front passenger. Even though the Q3 is lower in the range, we expect it will gain the big-screen setup too. If so, it’ll have over-the-air software updates like your phone.
With the electric Q4 being a similar size to the Q3, the Q3 is almost certainly going to stick with combustion engines. There’ll be a choice of petrol and plug-in hybrid engines, and probably a diesel option too. However, while the outgoing car is still offered with a manual gearbox, the new car is set to be automatic-only.
The new Q3 is likely to be available in Sport, S Line and Edition 1 trim levels, mirroring Audi’s other recent models. There could be a standard SUV model and a coupe-styled Sportback model.
Prices for the current car range from £36,000 to £41,000 before options, but be prepared for the starting price to rise to around £40,000.
As before, the Q3 will go up against the BMW X1, Mercedes GLA, Volkswagen Tiguan, Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage.
The new Q3 will be revealed on 16 June.
