Audi has started local production of the new Q3, a step that comes ahead of its commercial debut in India on October 16. The move is designed to make the SUV more competitive on delivery times and overall market positioning.
For the German brand, this is a strategic decision in a market where premium SUVs continue to grow. It is also a relevant sign for Europe, as the Q3 remains one of Audi’s key global models.
