2017 Audi Q3 facelift revealed

Audi has officially revealed the 2017 Q3 facelift recently. While performance is generally the same, the new look certainly gives it a more aggressive touch.

The new Q3 gets a more sportier front end with enlarged air inlets for the Sport trim. Audi’s signature grill gets a stone grey paint treatment. The optional S Line exterior package will add diamond pattern inserts on the air inlets, new skirts and high gloss black treatment for the radiator grille and air inlets. A special edition named the Q3 S Line competition is also available as a part of the refresh. This edition adds an array of black accents on the door trim strips, side mirror caps, roof rails and window slot trim. It also gives a glossy black treatment to the roof mounted spoiler and lower area of the rear bumper. A set of 19-inch glossy black wheels completes the whole package.

The interior of the S Line competition gets a pair of sports seats up front which is trimmed in black leather and fabric. Alcantara and fine Nappa leather is offered as an option. Stainless steel finishes, along with the S Line, logos give the cabin a premium feel. Some hardware upgrades also accompany these visual tweaks. The upgraded version of the S Line sports suspension and Audi drive select system is made standard for all variants. The S Line competition package is available not just with the top variants, but across the range.

The 2017 Audi Q3 should arrive in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other GCC countries sometime early next year.
