The Audi A3 appears to be the hands-down winner in the expanding compact luxury sedan class. With the A3, Audi has been able to do a small luxury car, without sacrificing style, performance or luxury.
The unmistakable front end and stylish curves leave no doubt that this is an Audi, basically a little smaller and sportier version of it's larger siblings. Since the A3 is, obviously, smaller than the A4 inside and out, Audi has streamlined the interior, rather than trying to cram all of the A4's controls into a smaller space. The result is a stream-lined, yet elegant and intuitive cockpit. One change is the very cool 7" pop-up screen on the A3, rather than the built-in and sometimes-obtrusive screens on competitors models.
Standard features include leather power seats, glass sunroom, and HD/Satellite radio, with the Audi MMI infotainment system.
The standard engine in the A3 for 2015 is an inline 4-cylinder that produces 170 horsepower with 200 ft-lbs of torque. The 2.0 TSFI model bumps those numbers to 220 horses with 258 ft-lbs of torque. Either engine provides excellent mileage (23/33 and 24/33 mpg, respectively), far outdistancing many of it's competitors.
