The 2019

Audi Q3

is a

big step

in the right direction for

Audi’s

subcompact

crossover

, and today we can tell you how much that step costs. It starts at $35,695, including the $995 destination fee. That’s just under $2,000 more than the old 2018 model year car that started at $33,875.

When

we drove the 2019 Q3

earlier this year in Italy, it felt lightyears ahead of the original

Q3

. With the huge improvement in quality and performance, this price hike isn’t so bad after all. The crossover is available in a couple different versions to start: Quattro and S Line Quattro. The S Line trim gets its own bumpers, side sills, 19-inch wheels and badging. Summer tires wrapping 20-inch wheels are optional on top of that. You’ll pay a $1,300 premium to get into an S Line. Three different levels of features and luxury are offered, including Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige. This is normal Audi fare, and the Prestige (only available on S Line models) ramps the price all the way up to $43,895.

2019 Audi Q3

Compared to some of its closest rivals like the

BMW X1

,

Volvo XC40

,

Cadillac XT4

and

Mercedes GLA

, the Q3 is right on par from a pricing perspective. All the extra tech and power in the 2019 vehicle makes it all the more attractive. As a reminder, the Q3’s only engine option is a 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder that makes

228

horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque that gets mated to an eight-speed automatic. Audi is claiming a 0-60 mph time of just 7.0 seconds.

Fuel economy and a full specs breakdown is not available at this time, but will be on its way closer to the on-sale date. Despite the vehicle’s 2019 model year demarcation, Audi says it won’t be hitting

dealer

lots until the third quarter this year. Until then, you can read
