What is the minimum ground clearance of the Audi Q3?
2 Answers
The minimum ground clearance of the Audi Q3 is 152 millimeters. The Audi Q3 is a compact SUV, featuring a MacPherson strut front suspension and a four-link independent rear suspension. In terms of exterior design, the Audi Q3 adopts the dynamic waistline design inspired by the Audi A5. The side waistline of the domestically produced new Audi Q3 remains consistent with the overseas version, showcasing a fashionable and dynamic design. As for the interior, the overall design of the Audi Q3's cabin is very simple yet boasts high craftsmanship. The wraparound cockpit is extensively wrapped in soft plastic materials, with silver trim accents enhancing the overall sense of quality.
I've been driving an Audi Q3 for quite a while, and its minimum ground clearance is about 170mm, which is very practical in the city. It handles speed bumps and roadside curbs without any issues, unlike sedans that are more prone to scraping the undercarriage. During occasional outings, it can handle some muddy or sandy roads, but I wouldn't risk deep potholes. Compared to other SUVs, the Q5 has around 200mm, so the Q3 is more suitable for daily driving and isn't as tall as hardcore off-roaders. To maintain this clearance, make sure the tire pressure isn't too low and regularly check the suspension system to reduce wear from bumps. If you accidentally install underbody protection, it might slightly reduce the clearance, so be extra cautious when parking on uneven surfaces. Overall, 170mm is a good balance, offering both comfort and decent off-road capability, giving me much more confidence while driving.
