Audi opens pre-orders for the new Q3 e-hybrid , the plug-in version of the third-generation compact SUV. This model continues to innovate and redefine the standards of its category, combining the muscular design and elegance that have always characterized the Q3 family with unprecedented electrified efficiency. Its all-electric range breaks all records, reaching up to 119 kilometers , placing it at the top of its segment.

Two plug-in versions with up to 272 hp

The new Audi Q3 e-hybrid is available in Italy in two variants: the 45 TFSI e and the 50 TFSI e . Both versions are based on the 1.5 TFSI Evo2 four-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor integrated into the S tronic dual-clutch automatic transmission. The differences lie in the power output, with the first version offering 204 hp , rising to 272 hp in the highest-performance configuration. Both engines are front-wheel drive: a choice designed to reduce fuel consumption and maximize efficiency, while still ensuring the typical brilliance of Audi SUVs. The battery, which is larger than the previous generation, is the heart of the plug-in hybrid system.

Record-breaking range: up to 85 km in electric mode

The Audi Q3 e-hybrid stands out for its electric range of up to 119 kilometers (74 miles) according to the WLTP cycle. This performance is made possible by the 25.7 kWh high-density battery (19.7 kWh net), almost double the capacity of the previous model, and intelligent drive management. The new model also features new direct current (DC) charging, with power now reaching up to 50 kW. Charging supports up to 11 kW, allowing a 10% to 80% charge in less than 30 minutes.

Digitalization at the top

In keeping with the company's latest models , the new Audi Q3 e-hybrid also focuses heavily on digitalization. On board, we find the 10.25-inch Virtual Cockpit, flanked by a 10.1-inch MMI touch central display, perfectly integrated into the dashboard. Both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are supported wirelessly, while the integrated system is based on Android Automotive OS , allowing you to manage applications directly from the car and also offering interaction with the virtual assistant guided by Artificial Intelligence . Also impressive are the features derived from the myAudi app, which allows you to remotely monitor the battery status, climate control, vehicle location and even schedule charging. A digital ecosystem that makes driving simpler, more convenient and connected, even when you're away from the wheel.

2025 Audi Q3: list price and pre-orders

The Audi Q3 e-hybrid will be available in Italian dealerships starting in the fourth quarter of 2025 , with a base price starting at €49,800 . The range includes three trim levels : Business, Business Advanced, and S Line Edition, designed to offer solutions to different needs, from company fleets to business customers and those seeking a sportier touch. With its mix of record-breaking electric range, cutting-edge technology, and a refreshed design, the Q3 e-hybrid promises to be one of the most attractive options in the compact plug-in SUV segment, ready to win over those seeking a versatile car without sacrificing efficiency and dynamic driving.
