Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Audi Q3
- Fun 204PS 2.0-litre turbo engine + quattro all-wheel drive delivers driving pleasure.
- Value: panoramic sunroof, 3-zone climate control, leatherette upholstery available as standard.
- Comfortable ride quality, great highway stability. Built for roadtrips.
BMW X3
- The updated design makes it look modern and the massive illuminated kidney grille stands out.
- The cabin has a sporty design which looks very appealing for younger buyers.
- Its ride is comfortable with good space for 5 occupants.
- No significant miss in the features list and it comes with an extensive safety net.

Audi Q3
- No hybrid, diesel or electric powertrain options available.
- Fuel efficiency will be poor in heavy city traffic.
- Strange feature omissions: front seat ventilation, 360° camera are not available.
BMW X3
- While it does look distinctive, some design elements might not appeal to everyone.
- Parts of the cabin don’t feel as rich or premium as they should at this price.
- While the performance is good, you don’t get the exciting handling package you expect from a BMW.
