Soldiering into Audi’s electric era, the brand’s Q3 SUV receives only an optional visual upgrade for the 2025 model year, which is the current generation’s seventh year on the market. The new Black Optic Plus Package includes black 19-inch wheels (20s are also available), exterior mirror housings, trim, badging and roof rails. Inside, the package adds red stitching, S Line logos embossed into the front seats, carbon-fiber trim and stainless steel pedals. Otherwise, the 2025 Q3 is unchanged from the 2024 model.
