Audi’s compact crowd-pleaser is getting a quiet but useful refresh. The 2027 Audi Q3 rolls into production in early September 2026 with more kit as standard, sharper digital features, and a PHEV that can finally tow like a proper all-rounder.

The big cabin news is a first for the Q3: an optional 10.9-inch passenger display. Alongside that, adaptive cruise assist can now lean on online and swarm data to set speed and following distance more intelligently, and park assist pro can be run remotely from the myAudi app. There’s also a new Valet Mode that locks the screens when you hand the keys over.

Everyday kit that used to sit higher in the option tree is now base equipment: convenience key, heated seats, dual-zone climate, and a reversing camera. Packages are reworked into Tech, Tech plus, and Tech pro, with clearer options for suspension, acoustic glass, Sonos sound, and more.

Utility gets a real bump too. The Q3 e-hybrid can tow up to 2,000 kg — 600 kg more than before — which matters if you’re actually using the car for trailers, not just grocery runs. Connectivity moves to an Android Automotive MMI with apps like Microsoft Teams onboard, a stronger 25 W MagSafe-style wireless charger, and triple rear USB-C ports up to 100 W.

Order books opened July 2. In Germany the Q3 SUV starts at €46,100 and the Sportback at €47,950. Production is kicking off now, so this is the Q3 you’ll start seeing in showrooms for the 2027 model year.
