Compare the BMW X2 vs Audi Q3 Sportback
AI generated from our expert reviews
Choosing between the BMW X2 and the Audi Q3 Sportback comes down to where you value comfort and space. Up front, both offer plenty of steering wheel adjustment to help you get settled, but each compromises on practicality towards the rear. Taller passengers will find their heads brushing the roof in the back of the X2, while you do not have to be particularly tall to feel your hair ruffled by the Q3 Sportback's ceiling. Both also suffer from poor over-the-shoulder visibility. In everyday driving, the X2 M35i avoids feeling jerky in sluggish town traffic when set to comfort or eco mode, whereas the Q3 Sportback's gearbox is rather jerky at low speeds and when setting off. For carrying luggage, the X2 provides a bigger boot and more room with the rear seats folded down.
