Not too bad but Audi really are starting to get get a tad dull and conservative. Ditch the photocopier and make a fresh design please. Simply taking the one design and shrinking or enlarging it and calling it changing the name but a digit our 2 really shows a lack of vision.

@catchmyshadow no need to be defensively stupid. it looks futuristic but still a tad dull. audi+dull = audull.

i am simply sick of that dull argument, cause this design recipe is not a lame effort, it is a well thought out design route that reflects the reliable brand identity. design experiments would destroy this pillar and it would put at stake what already is a huge, huge success. if u don`t like the recipe, leave it! but u know what? others (Benz, BMW etc.) are starting to do the same now. same with Porsche or VW. every time they release a new model, haters come up with the "dull" argument, but their cars sell like hot cakes as well, cause people are searching for consistency in their lives, that?s why most love a reliable and nice design identity that works and not a design contest with strange experiments that mostly don`t work.

Looks smaller than I thought it would be and it doesn't look like the A4 allroad. They could have done better with the interior, I think. But I actually like it, not sure which I'd get between this and Q5

the gray Q3 with the s-line exterior looks stunning!

Audi have got a big rival in the Evoque, which I suspect will be evenly priced and likely to come with better standard kit compared to the Audi. 30K doesn't buy you even a poverty spec Q5 and used examples are holding their value well. Not sure about the Q3 exterior, apart from the ques towards to next gen A3. Do like the simplified interior, and lack of MMI. Unless the Q3 is sub 25K for a decent spec, under cutting the Evoque substantially, I'm going Rangie and spending the extra money. And that's despite being on my third Audi.

Not another SUV : ( I wish Audi would bring the A6 Allroad back to the US.

It's ok I guess, but I'm not much of a fan of small SUVs. Why not get a cheaper A3 instead?

In all honesty this looks way to similar to the Q5. Id even call it a mini Q5 and BMW and Merc get flak for boring designs. The other day i thought an A4 was moving toward me in oncoming traffic only to realise its an A5.

Overall I like the looks of the Q3, although I don't think a smaller SUV than a Q5 is necessary, but BMW started the trend with the X1.

I dislike the new face of the Audi, it's the same ugly like mitsubishi. I also hate the fact that the whole line-up looks the same from the front view. Luxury brand should not stick on one design pattern, the BMW and the MB, on the contrary, do the better job.

I m sick of the dull argument as well but COME ON bring out something different. Any Audi SUV is off my list.
