  • Following customer demand, new Q3 35 TDI and Q3 Sportback 35 TDI join Audi’s popular compact SUV and CUV ranges.

Q3

September 2024, Johannesburg - Audi is extending its engine range for the Audi Q3 to include a new 35 TDI engine, which joins the 35 and 40 TFSI powerplants (alongside the famed 2.5-litre TFSI engine from the RS Q3) in the Q3 and Q3 Sportback ranges to offer an expanded choice for buyers shopping in the premium-compact SUV and CUV markets.

The new 2.0-litre TDI engine boasts two balancer shafts in the crankcase to minimise internal friction and enhance refinement. This smooth-running unit delivers 110kW and 340Nm of torque from 1,750 to 3,000rpm. In combination with Audi’s seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch transmission and front-wheel drive, the TDI option has a low claimed fuel consumption figure in the combined cycle of just 4.9L/100km. Performance is equally impressive; the Q3 35 TDI takes just 9.2 seconds to accelerate from a standstill to 100km/h, with the propulsive power ending at 207km/h.

The 35 TDI engine will be sold exclusively in Urban Edition and Black Edition trim lines as part of Audi South Africa’s strategy of offering buyers maximum value and convenience when choosing their vehicles. Both Urban and Black Edition specifications bundle together those features that South African buyers love most in their Audi models, effectively removing much of the guesswork when selecting a new vehicle.

What’s more, Audi Financial Services offers tailored finance options on these new models, enhancing their value further. Through Audi Assured, the guaranteed future value of these special edition models is established at the beginning of the contract term, giving buyers peace of mind knowing in advance the value they can receive for their model of choice at the end of the contract term. Audi Financial Services also offers insurance options tailored to customers’ specific requirements.
