Buy a soon to be retired Audi A4 or a much newer Q3?

Being a sedan, the A4 drives better while the Q3 is more practical for being an SUV.

I’m thinking of buying a new car, but I’m confused between the Audi A4 and the Audi Q3 Sportback. The A4 is a bit cheaper, at Rs 46 lakh, but it’s going to be discontinued in 2025. The Q3 Sportback is a bit more expensive – Rs 50 lakh – but it’s newer and might hold its value better. What do you think I should do? I like the A4 a lot.

Autocar India says: Both the Audi A4 and Audi Q3 are good cars, but we would pick the A4 because it’s nicer to drive. In fact, the A4 is the best luxury sedan in its class thanks to a smooth and peppy engine, exceptional ride and a solid build. The Q3 is more practical if you are driving mainly on rough roads, and it has a more comfortable back seat – the A4’s a bit cramped at the rear. We understand the resale value concerns, but we would still pick the A4 over the Q3, and that Rs 4 lakh saving could offset the lower resale value when you eventually sell it.
