2023 Audi Q3 Redesign: Specs, Powertrain, Price. The 2023 Audi Q3 will represent the fourth production year of the current generation and even though some sources were suggesting a mid-cycle update, that won’t happen. The Ingolstadt company feels it’s still early for such updates, so the next year will bring minor novelties only. From what we know so far, the biggest novelties will come in the form of new standard equipment. We will see more equipment, as well as a new available package.

The 2023 Audi Q3 will continue with a well-known 2.0-liter turbo-four engine, which comes in two output variants.

Both models come in pair with an 8-speed automatic transmission, which works well. Driving dynamics are generally good, though some drivers complained about the turbo lag. On the other hand, fuel economy is good, especially if we consider the standard all-wheel drive. You may count on about 22 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway. 2023 Audi Q3 Design As it is still early for a mid-cycle refresh, the 2023 Audi Q3 will come with a familiar design. The current generation has been around for less than three years and it has a lot of good things to offer. Unlike bigger Audi models, this one rides on the MQB platform, but that doesn’t handicap it in terms of handling and ride quality. The Q3 is pretty good in this aspect. We should mention that AWD is standard. Of course, we are talking about the well-known Haldex system that can be found in many models from the VW Group. In […]
