01:43This allows not only for stunning visual appeal, but also for customizable lighting animations,
01:49intelligent illumination control, and improved safety.
01:53Every line of the new Q3's body is purposeful.

03:40The 2026 Q3 will offer a range of fuel-efficient and electrified powertrains,
03:46focusing on balancing performance with sustainability.
03:50Anchoring the lineup is likely to be a 2.0-liter turbocharged in-line,
03:544-petrol engine, fine-tuned for both city efficiency and highway power.
04:00Complementing this will be 48-volt mild hybrid technology, MCV,
04:05now either standard or optional on most variants, even the one.

04:14offering smoother start-stop transitions, regenerative braking,
04:18and torque-assisted acceleration, all while helping reduce emissions.
04:22This powertrain approach ensures that even in its base form,
