About the Audi Q3
The Audi Q3 is a midsize SUV that was first launched in 2011 and which occupies a premium, luxury market that also includes cars like the Volvo XC40, BMW X1 and the Range Rover Evoque.
It’s a vehicle designed to offer maximum enjoyment and practicality on a day-to-day basis, and there are levels of refinement on offer that few rivals can match.
While a plug-in hybrid powertrain is offered with the separate ‘TFSI e’ variant, the Audi Q3 is available with a choice of diesel and petrol engines, with power running all the way up to 245 PS.
Combine that with the option of Quattro all-wheel drive, and you really have got yourself a versatile, do-it-all lease car.
Why lease an Audi Q3?
As you’d expect from a premium brand like Audi, the Q3 comes generously equipped as standard.
Base models feature dual-zone climate control, a 10.1 inch infotainment touchscreen with sat-nav, rear parking sensors, and a suite of driver assistance and safety systems including lane departure warning and collision-detecting software.
The rear seats are also capable of sliding forwards and backwards, unlocking an extremely healthy 675 litres of boot space, which is more than you see on some much larger SUVs.
If you want performance, the Audi Q3 can also satisfy that demand. The range-topping, all-wheel drive ‘45 TFSI quattro’ model is underpinned by a 2.0 litre petrol engine with power of 245 PS. It means you can accelerate from 0-62mph in just 5.8 seconds.
Meanwhile there are also frugal diesel powertrains up for grabs.
The ‘35 TDI’ models, for example, will return up to 56 miles to the gallon - which could be perfect for keeping your fuel costs low.
Which Audi Q3 fuel type is right for me?
Diesel, petrol, and plug-in hybrid - there’s an abundance of choice the Audi Q3, whether you opt for the traditional SUV body shape or the more swooping ‘Sportback’ variant.
Diesel
There are two diesel powertrains - the 35 TDI and the 45 TDI - both of which use a 2.0 engine. The 35 TDI generates power of 150 PS and 360 Nm of torque, while the 40 TDI takes power up to 200 PS. Each diesel engine is married to the S tronic auto gearbox.
Petrol
Petrol powertrains for the Audi Q3 are the 35 TFSI, 40 TFSI, and the 45 TFSI. The 35 TFSI can be mated to a six-speed manual gearbox while the 40 and 45 come as automatics.
Plug-in hybrid
The Audi Q3 TFSI e is classed as a distinct model by Audi. It’s a fantastic powertrain that is capable of returning upwards of 150 mpg and travelling 31 miles using electricity alone.
What vehicles are similar to the Audi Q3 that I should consider?
You’re not short of leasing options if you’re looking for a compact. And while the BMW X1 is the Q3’s biggest rival, there are some other strong competitors.
BMW X1 Estate
The BMW X1 has enjoyed a major update in recent years, giving it a more purposeful look to match the Audi Q3. Like the Q3 TFSI e, the X1 can also be enjoyed as a plug-in hybrid.

Land Rover Range Rover Evoque SUV

First time for car leasing and looking back at the process, everything went smoothly. Quite a lot of paperwork to sign before getting a delivery date but i suppose it’s all part of the course. David Harding was very helpful from start to finish and helped me with all the questions that i had. I can’t speak highly enough of David. The car was delivered by a very helpful and pleasant man ( Jim ) , who showed me all that i needed to know about the car. I would recommend select car leasing for all aspects and i have no negatives .
Good customer support from Hakan Grevher throughout the process, despite technical issues during order process, communication were maintained and completion was very professional at handover.
Excellent as always!
