Bigger is better is a concept embedded in the minds of traditional Indian car buyers src:autocarindia [{ "selector": ".utcjj-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

who have universally equated size with price

So the bigger the car, the more they are happy to pay for it

After driving the Q3 for a month, it’s proved to be the perfect urban SUV

Audis have the best ride and the Q3 is no exception

[{ "selector": ".gukuf-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 460px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".doocs-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "750ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 365px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".ebnou-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

The 2.0-litre TFSI engine in the Q3’s ‘40’ spec produces 190hp and 320Nm of torque

[{ "selector": ".bowlb-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(-142px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".gwejn-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "750ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(-235px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".xngom-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

which is modest for a 2-litre and performance feels just that

[{ "selector": ".rpqtx-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

There’s no strong rush of acceleration but for day-to-day driving

[{ "selector": ".qawiq-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

this engine is perfectly calibrated to give a smooth step-off and even the 7-speed DSG
