The Audi Q3 Sportback is the first ever coupe design with SUV functionality, but is this something we need?

A sporting chance

After Audi discontinued the popular Q3 in 2020, the German luxury brand has brought it back with not just one but two variants, as if to make up for lost time. The standard Q3 SUV was launched last year.

Earlier this year, it was supplemented by the new Sportback variant, the first compact SUV coupe.

With no direct rivals, the Q3 Sportback can carve a niche of its own. But what's special about it? Audi has reserved its sporty S-Line styling package exclusively for the Q3 Sportback. What this gets you is more aggressive front and rear bumpers with big brushed-silver trim inserts, and a welcome five twin-spoke design for the 18-inch alloy wheels. All in a striking Turbo Blue paint shade, also exclusive to this version. It looks stunning.
