Audi Q3 does not have a representative modern automatic transmission. You should try a car with a CVT from the last 2-3-ish years to feel the difference.

- kortex 4y agoThe latest subaru forester is absolutely insane when it comes to how much control you have over acceleration. I can creep forward at agonizingly slow speeds without riding the brake, stomp it for mostly instant torque, and everything in between. It's way smoother than any manual, automatic 6-spd, or DSG I've ever driven. Oh and you can downshift to engine brake and the Sport model has flappy paddles to boot.
- apelapan 4y agoThere are still a lot of more-or-less-shit automatics being manufactured. Even if they collectively has gotten quite a bit better over the years. The six-speed automatic in my KIA for example, is from the past three years and it is not entirely great. It is perfectly fine 98% of the time, but those last two percent... * Shifting speed is highly unpredictable on kick-down * In certain temperatures it will slam the shift from first to second even when taking of very softly * It will randomly decide to stay in a needlessly low gear on long, gentle inclines, even though there is plenty of power in higher gears if you force an up-shift in manual mode * On low-speed sharp inclines (like my own residental street) it desperately stays in second gear to the point of almost stalling the engine, before does a brutal panic-downshift to first gear But in standard highway driving or city-stop-and-go it is really nice.
