Audi A3 - Overview
Since its introduction to the U.S. market, the A3 has carved a niche for its euro-style and sporty performance. But it's also one of the more expensive models in the upscale small car class. If you're willing to make the investment, you'll enjoy the A3's sporty look and feel, comfortable and spacious seating for five, and one of the best all-wheel drive systems of the class. But look elsewhere if you want a small car with a better reputation for dependability, or if you're turned off by the price.
The Audi A3 is an upscale small car. Sold in Europe since 1996 as a three-door and five-door hatchback, the A3 first became available in the United States in 2005. Sharing a platform with the Audi TT, Volkswagen Rabbit, Volkswagen Jetta and Volkswagen GTI, the A3 is exclusively sold in the U.S. as a five-door hatchback.
