2026 Audi Q3 Interior

The redesigned steering wheel control setup brings a smart dose of practicality to the 2026 Q3. For the first time, Audi introduces a pair of sleek stalks on the steering column, freeing up valuable room in the center console and giving a new user experience. The right-hand lever now handles gear selection, while the left takes charge of lighting functions and the windshield wipers. With the traditional gear selector gone from the console, drivers gain extra storage space—including room for two full-size cup holders—making everyday driving more convenient than ever.

Showcasing the everyday versatility of the all-new 2026 Audi Q3, the second-row seats now come standard with sliding and reclining functionality, allowing passengers to tailor their comfort with ease. Thanks to smarter interior packaging introduced in the redesign, overall storage space has also increased compared to the previous generation, making the cabin more useful for both daily errands and weekend adventures.

Infotainment and Technology

Inside, the all-new Q3 brings in Audi’s familiar Digital Stage MMI setup, a feature typically seen in models from higher segments. Its 11.9-inch digital cluster and 12.8-inch MMI touchscreen debut a new UX for the first time, along with the return of onboard maps in the virtual cockpit; both elements slated to expand to other Audi vehicles using the Digital Stage system. An optional head-up display adds key information directly in view. Clean, flush-mounted door handles and a sleek, simplified console enhance the cabin’s spacious, comfortable atmosphere.
