Sometimes you have to take things out to put more in. In this case, the weight was removed so that more performance could be added. The A3 is equipped with ultra lightweight technology, which uses advanced materials and construction to aid in improving performance and efficiency without compromising the body strength. Although, light and compact, the A3 is big on power. Due to Audi's pioneering role in turbocharger technology, Audi can use a smaller engine to help gain the performance benefits of a larger one without compromising fuel efficiency.

Take on the roads with a selection of two turbocharged TFSI® engines available for the A3. A 170-hp 1.8 liter turbo four with front-drive and six speed auto is standard, as manual is not offered. Also a 220-hp 2.0 liter with all-wheel drive is optional. When that road changes, respond accordingly with four distinct driving modes available through Audi drive select. Audi drive select helps you react smarter to the road by adjusting your vehicle's steering, throttle response and transmission shifts to tailor your Audi to your individual driving style.
