Audi Q3 Bags Black Edition in the United Kingdom, Range Starts at £26,600 OTR

Orders up-and-running from October 11

After the addition of the Black Edition for the Audi Q3, the crossover's equipment hierarchy also changes.

In the entry-level department, the SE trim becomes Sport and gains standard navigation and larger air vents and a body-color front diffuser.

S Line Navigation turns into S line Edition and comprises standard features like cruise control and Audi Parking System Plus plus a diamond-pattern mesh design for the front grille.

Subsequently, Black Edition replaces the S line plus trim with standard metallic paint, privacy glass at the back and a freshly-added Bose audio system plus the black treatment here and there.

And by here and there we mean piano black inlays inside the cabin, 21-inch black rims and gloss black rear spoilers and tailpipes.

Two TDI diesel engines and two TFSI petrol units are tasked with moving the Q3 Black Edition, with power outputs ranging between 150 and 184 hp. Depending on the chosen specification, Audi offers both a manual gearbox and the S tronic automatic transmission, along with the quattro all-wheel drive setup.

The Revised Audi Q3 range for the UK starts at £26,600 OTR, but a range-topper can leave you without at least £36,945 OTR.
