Is this 2026 Audi Q3 Base a good deal?
OAV verdict: Great Deal
Why: Listed at $27,252, below a broader same-model range of $42,223–$64,213. That range spans trims and configurations and sits above this vehicle's MSRP, so OAV does not state a precise trim-level discount yet (483 comparable listings). Listed 38 days · about typical for comparable local listings (typical ~30–90 days).
Manufacturer MSRPReference
$30,280This vehicle $27,252 · $3,028 (10%) below MSRP
MSRP is the manufacturer's suggested retail price, shown for reference only. OAV rates new-car deals by how far below the supported comparable range a vehicle is priced (see OAV's market comparables / MRP and sold-price value / TRV) — not by discount from MSRP, because dealer-supplied MSRP is not independently verified. The advertised price is set by the dealer and may require financing, rebates, trade-in, or other qualifications, and excludes taxes, fees, and dealer add-ons — confirm the out-the-door price with the dealer.

- This listing is priced well below the lowest comparable vehicle in the regional market — an unusually low price that more often reflects title status, history, condition, or fees than a genuine bargain.

How this deal is rated
OAV compares this 2026 Audi Q3 against similar vehicles currently available for sale — same make, model, and year range, using trim where trim data supports it. OAV does not adjust comparables for odometer; on very high-mileage vehicles it withholds a verdict rather than overstate a discount the odometer explains. Based on where this listing falls in that comparable set, it is rated:
- Great Deal — priced below the comparable-range floor by a meaningful margin (OAV's minimum-gap rule); a listing below the floor by less than that margin is Fair Price.
- Fair Price — priced within the expected range for comparable vehicles.
- Overpriced — priced above the typical range for comparable vehicles.
Listings show OAV's PTM-derived deal quality and live market context. OAV-claimed dealers manage their listing profile and route buyer inquiries directly. Paid OAV partners can surface additional verification signals, but commercial participation never changes a listing's Price-to-Market verdict, eligibility, ranking, or confidence.
