The 2018 Audi Q3: before you buy
No 2018 Audi Q3 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the 2018 Audi Q3, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
Before you sign for the Q3
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.
Engine and fuel
Its powertrain is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Combined fuel use is 10.1 L/100 km: about 30 litres for 300 km. That works out to about $17.68 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the Q3
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Space, size and seats
A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. With 481 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes a family's bags for a long weekend.
Rent it for a week first
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the Q3 answers more than any brochure. Rent the Q3 first, and buy only if it fits your life.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Money matters
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $176.80 at our price setting.
