Urban clothed Audi Q3 and Q3 Sportback prices revealed

Urban modes receive more standard equipment, albeit without significant exterior revisions.


Audi has resumed its roll-out of the limited edition Urban models, this time on the Q3 and Q3 Sportback after adding the black pack clad derivatives in March.

What’s new?

Modelled on the mid-range Advanced trim level positioned below the flagship S line that serves as base for the Black, the Urban sports a more restrained look in that its only visual change involves the fitting of 18-inch alloy wheels in place of the standard 17-inches, plus a panoramic sunroof.
