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.
Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line
- Great seats: R-Line seats give you a good driving position and are comfortable and supportive. Massage function is good.
- Spacious and practical: Offers plenty of room, lots of cubby holes and charging options. Dual wireless charging up front is a great feature.
- Impressive tech package: Comes with a 15-inch touchscreen, a digital driver's display, and a HUD too
- Powerful turbo-petrol engine: Offers an engaging drive experience and suspension set up gives you the best of both words - comfortable and sporty when you want it to be.

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.
Volkswagen Tiguan R-Line
- Missing features: Does not get keyless entry, powered and ventilated front seats
- Not so efficient: Fuel efficiency of the large turbo-petrol engine in traffic and when driven with a heavy right foot can drop
