The Audi Q3Consistently efficient
The brand claim “Vorsprung durch Technik” encapsulates the cutting-edge technology that is at the very heart of the Audi brand. An approach that includes repeatedly reviewing how every drop of fuel can best be used. For many years Audi has exemplified this approach in all its models – and has had a lasting impact on efficiency standards in automotive manufacturing through its development of a wide range of innovations.

For instance, when the driver brings the car to a halt at traffic lights, moves the gear lever into neutral and takes their foot off the clutch, the system shuts down the engine.
Driver information system with efficiency program
To reduce fuel consumption, the driver information systemDriver information system with efficiency programThe display of the driver information system (DIS) brings together a wide range of different information items in the centre of the cockpit and permanently indicates the vehicle’s current operating status.Driver information system with efficiency program incorporates an efficiency program. This integrated program assists you with overviews of fuel consumption data, status displays for additional consumers and tips for particularly economical driving.
Energy recovery
By increasing alternator voltage, kinetic energy is converted into useful electrical energy during the coasting or braking phase. This energy reduces the load on the alternator during subsequent acceleration – saving up to 3 percent in fuel.
