Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Audi Q3 Sportback
- Sportier styling than the Q3 thanks to coupe-SUV styling
- Big boot space which can be increased with flat-folding rear seats
- Comfortable ride quality
- Engaging and fun to drive 2-litre TSI and 7-speed DSG combination
- Compact dimensions make it easier to drive around the city
- Practical enough for a family of four people
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 Sportback
- Could have looked even better with brighter colour options and flashier wheels
- Features like ventilated front seats with memory function and 360-degree camera still missing
- No diesel engine on offer like its rivals
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
