Fun fact: In the 2018 calendar year, the BMW X1 outsold the Audi Q3 luxury compact crossover by nearly two to one in the United States—29,060 X1s versus 16,828 Q3s. Those numbers surely fueled celebration ragers in Munich and had executives nervously chomping Paxil in Wolfsburg. The new-for-2019 Q3 is out to flip that ratio in favor of team Audi.
