#newcar #automobile #carreview #audisportback #newaudi #audia3sportback • The Premium trim sees no price increase for 2024, and the Premium Plus creeps up by a scant 200$. That’s not enough to deter us from recommending the Premium Plus model, as the added features offer a great return on the modest price increase. Included are adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, memory seat and mirror settings for the driver, a wireless smartphone charging pad, and passive keyless entry. Adding Quattro all-wheel drive to both models is a 2000$ upcharge. • A3 buyers won’t lose any sleep debating which powertrain to choose, as the 201-horsepower turbocharged 2 liters four-cylinder with a 48-volt hybrid system and seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission is the sole choice. Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is optional. Though it’s down about 17 ponies and about a half-a-second slower to sixty miles per hour compared to the 228-horsepower 2020 A3, it more than makes up for it with quick responses aided by all 221 foot-pounds of torque reporting for duty at a low 1600 rpm. The chassis remains playful and reactive enough to make commuting entertaining, and it delivers a pleasant ride over most surfaces—though you won’t mistake it for a genuine sport sedan. Those looking for heightened performance and faster reflexes are encouraged to consider the 308-horsepower S3, which shaves nearly 2 seconds off the A3’s 6 seconds 60-miles per hour time. • The 2024 A3 earns an impressive 29 miles per gallon city and 38 miles per gallon highway fuel economy estimates from the EPA; all-wheel drive models are rated for 28 miles per gallon city and 36 miles per gallon highway. In our hands, however, the all-wheel drive A3 actually beat its official EPA number, returning a solid 40 miles per gallon on 75-miles per hour highway fuel-economy test route. • The interior of the 2024 A3 strives to blend emerging tech and infotainment with traditional European sedan elements with mixed results. The seating position is excellent, the available sport seats feature quilted seating surfaces and faux-suede trimming, and a line of stitching on the dash adds a touch of visual appeal. Unfortunately, those efforts are offset by the funky shift “flipper,” a multi-function audio control and acres of hard plastic. Comfort for the driver and passenger is ample, but if you’re looking for innovative or spacious storage solutions, you’ll be disappointed. That said, the A3's 10.9 cubic feet of trunk space is enough for an average grocery store haul or a weekend's worth of luggage.
