Audi Q3, Q5 and PHEV A6 now also available as S Edition Competition

It is a choice that now seems standard in the premium segment: a sporty (bumper) package, preferably supplemented with black accents and black headliner. At Audi they like to give the S-line option a boost with the so-called S Edition Competition versions. That sounds like a super intense ultra-sporty version, but ‘simply’ means that a number of sporty options are combined in one attractive package. This was already possible with the A4 and A5, for example, but now Audi is also letting the Q3, Q5 and A6 PHEV be part of this party. For the Q3 and Q5, the S Edition Competition package is available on both the regular version and the flattened Sportback variants.

In the case of the Q3, the party is limited to the 150 hp 35 TFSI and the S Edition Competition is therefore not available as a plug-in hybrid. The Q3 is available in this version from €55,875. For €2,500 more than the basic version, you get all the S Line furnishings, including bumpers, painted wheel arch edges, 18-inch alloys, black accents, a sports steering wheel, an audio upgrade, MMI navigation plus and many other trinkets.

For the Q5, the S Edition Competition is available on the plug-in hybrid 50 TFSIe and 55 TFSIe. That makes sense, because the Q5 is only available as such in the Netherlands. Here too, for a relatively mild additional charge you get a whole range of especially sporty-looking extras, plus matrix LED lighting, among other things. The Audi Q5 S edition Competition is available from €74,173.

Then the A6. It was already available as the S edition Competition, but now also combines the often black-colored sportiness with the plug-in hybrid 50 TFSIe drive. It is available in that form from €73,558.
