Q3 is easy to drive. Test drove this car few months ago and noticed the ride is smooth and fast despite its small engine. Kids commented it's a "Floating" Car. We like this car but the overall package offered by audi somehow was not as competitive as BMW.

What I like
1. easy to drive.
2. SUV sporty look.

What I do not like
1. basic interior.
2. basic sound system and features
3. rear seat is not as spacious as other brands of same class.
4. dated design.
5. overall package not as competitive as other dealers.

Short test drive of the Q3 2l 180hp. Very nice and roomy interior for the size. The seats are very comfortable and easy to adjust to the right position. The steering is extremely light at low speed and remains soft. The traffic did not allow for much evaluation of the chassis. Only a right turn taken briskly revealed a tendency to moderate body roll but with a slight jerk from the rear end. Was it the stability control or the rear wheel drive that kicked in? It absorbs bumps quite well. The engine is adequate for normal driving but feels a little gutless when pushed with a lack of top end. This is aggravated by the gearbox shifting too early. In manual mode it refuses to downshift until it get into low rpm. The dynamic mode is not helping. It makes the car feel unrefined without providing more umph. It is not a challenger to the Porsche Macan. Back inside, the dashboard is nicely laid out and the finishing is really good. What is not good is the standard audio system. It sounds muddy and lifeless.

What I like
Compact
Roomy
Comfortable

What I do not like
Limited engine, gearbox and chassis when pushed (i.e. not a driver's car)
Terrible audio system

Went to the Q3 launch at open area near MBS, an ok event though.

Tested the full specs of Q3 that comes with panaromic sunroof plus other accessories.

The exterior is simply a slightly smaller Q5, which makes not much difference in styling or sportiness in it at all.

Interior is a base setting, no keyless entry and only the high spec version has full accessories at a huge top up of pricings.

The drive was so so....compared to the Q5 I tested, is much more umph...the Q3 is barely there and throttle it, it does not respond immediately.

Overall, I would rather top up S$10k (as of current price) to get a Q5 which is more spacious and powerful to handle than the Q3.

What I like
Nothing much...

What I do not like
No keyless entry
No electric tailgate
Price too steep, Q3 vs Q5 is only S$10k difference.
