The SUV is powered by a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder TFSI turbo-petrol engine that produces 204hp and 320Nm of torque. The engine is paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and Audi's quattro all-wheel-drive system.

Audi claims the Q3 can accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in 7.1 seconds and reach a top speed of 229 kmph. The all-wheel-drive setup is a distinguishing feature in this segment, where some competing luxury SUVs use front-wheel drive.
