The all-new Audi Q3 has officially launched across select GCC markets, marking a major evolution for one of the region’s most popular compact luxury SUVs. Offered in both SUV and Sportback body styles, the third-generation model introduces a sharper design, upgraded interior technology and improved driving performance.
Designed for fast-paced urban lifestyles as well as weekend escapes beyond city limits, the new Q3 features a wider Singleframe grille, sculpted body lines and distinctive digital lighting signatures. Buyers can personalise the rear lighting with four selectable digital taillight designs, alongside customisable welcome and farewell light projections.
Inside, the biggest transformation comes through a larger and more flexible cabin. The vehicle debuts Audi’s panoramic digital stage, combining a 12.8-inch MMI touchscreen with an 11.9-inch virtual cockpit display in a driver-focused curved layout. A redesigned steering column integrates the gear selector, freeing up additional storage space and enhancing cabin openness.
The GCC line-up offers two petrol engine options. The 35 TFSI delivers 150 hp for daily commuting, while the more powerful 40 TFSI quattro produces 204 hp with all-wheel drive capability, balancing efficiency with confident performance on highways and longer regional journeys.
Technology remains a key highlight, with Digital Matrix LED headlights, optional OLED rear lights, advanced driver assistance systems and a trained parking function that can memorise frequent parking manoeuvres.
Practicality also improves, offering up to 1,386 litres of luggage capacity in the SUV version, along with a sliding rear bench for flexible space management.
Available in Progress, Progress Plus and Progress Black trims, the new Audi Q3 enters GCC markets with a more competitive starting price than its predecessor, reinforcing Audi’s push toward accessible premium mobility in the region.
