Audi rs q3 Buying Guide

What types of used Audi RS Q3 cars are there?

An RS Q3 for sale (2013-2023) is the beefed-up, sportier version of the Q3 SUV that's practical yet performance-oriented.

Both iterations of the Audi RS Q3 have featured the same engine, albeit with more power and improved responses. It can be found in a few different trim levels including TFSI, Performance, Audi Sport Edition and Vorsprung.

Audi stopped selling the RS Q3 in 2023 ahead of the updated model in 2025.

What features does the Audi RS Q3 have?

An Audi RS Q3 for sale is a top-spec model with all the added bells and whistles. This includes features such as leather sports seats and steering wheel, as well as an Audi touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity linked with a digital driver's display.

Opt for the RS design package and it adds contrast stitching to the seats, steering wheel, gear selector and seat belts.

This makes it stand out from the 'standard' model, though if yours is finished in the bright Audi Kyalami Green then it won't matter as much.

A used Audi RS Q3 is also practical – it's got a roomy 530-litre boot (up to 1,525 litres) with rear seats that slide on rails to offer more legroom.

However, the sleeker Sportback version doesn't benefit from the same space and instead gets 1,400 litres when the rear seats are folded.

Is the Audi RS Q3 reliable?

Being an Audi, the RS Q3 is bound to be reliable to live with, sharing its parts with the standard Q3 model and the rest of the brand's range.

Additionally, every Audi comes with a three-year/60,000-mile warranty that can be transferred to subsequent owners.

Don't worry if the car you want is older – you can add cinchCare to your online used car purchase for worry-free ownership.

Following its most recent Euro NCAP crash test in 2018, the Audi Q3 scored a full five stars with 95% adult occupant protection and 86% for children passengers.

This is thanks to safety features such as ISOFIX child seat points and driver assistance technology including park assist and cameras/sensors.

How much does the Audi RS Q3 cost to run?

Power comes from a 2.5-litre five-cylinder petrol engine that produces 400hp and 480Nm of torque that's pushed through all four wheels via a responsive seven-speed S-Tronic automatic gearbox, helping it accelerate from 0-62mph in just 4.5 seconds – impressive for a 1.7-tonne family SUV.

This isn't the most fuel-efficient engine Audi makes but still manages to return a claimed 29mpg, which isn't bad for a sports SUV.

When it comes to driving feel and performance, the RS Q3 is superb especially when it comes to its engine note at higher revs. The optional sports exhaust only enhances this, too.

Additionally, the RS Q3 gets sports suspension with adaptive dampers, which means it can stiffen up the ride for a sportier feel.

Being at the top of the range, the RS Q3 isn't the cheapest Audi SUV to insure, sitting between insurance groups 37 and 43 out of 50.

Who is the Audi RS Q3 suitable for?

A used Audi RS Q3 for sale is the ideal car for cool parents. If you need a practical SUV but want the added performance of an RS3 hatchback, then it's a no-brainer.

Its main rivals include the BMW X4, Mercedes GLA and Volkswagen Tiguan.
