The smallest Q gets a petrol motor and may just be a better rounded option than before.

The sporty setup of the suspension also means there is some stiffness in the springs and dampers. Ride quality at low speeds is a bit jiggly and you are quite aware of how bad the road is from the seats. However, at higher speeds, the suspension becomes more comfortable and pliant.

The big front seats are comfortable with plenty of back and thigh support, although finding the ideal driving position takes a bit of time. At the rear, there’s plenty of legroom and head and shoulder room is good. The only complaint would be with the thigh support, which is lacking. 
 
The interiors are rather decently done, with great material and build quality. The dashboard, high-quality bits like the knurled aluminium dials and high-gloss pieces of wood make you feel like you’re in something special. The only complaint we had was the absence of the full Audi Multimedia Interface (MMI) screen-based navigation system on the low-spec version on this car. 
 
Starting at Rs 31.03 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), and going up to Rs 35.45 lakh for the top-end version we're testing, the Q3 2.0 TFSI is still quite expensive. However, it is fast, fun, extremely well built, well equipped and attractive even by Audi standards. It certainly is one of the better compact luxury SUVs in India.
