Question 1

Which versions does the new Audi A3 come in?

Accepted Answer

The Sportback and Saloon share TFSI petrol engines with 116 or 150 PS, manual or S tronic, and a 150 PS TDI diesel with S tronic. Trims run from Technik through Sport and S line to Black Edition, and the TDI starts at Sport.

Question 2

What is the new Audi A3 e-hybrid?

Accepted Answer

It is a plug-in hybrid Sportback with 204 PS and a battery of about 20 kWh, paired with S tronic. It comes in Sport, S line and Black Edition trims and suits drivers who can charge at home.

Question 3

How much road tax does a new Audi A3 pay?

Accepted Answer

The first year's rate is set by CO₂ and included in the on-the-road price, then the car pays £200 a year. A version with a list price over £40,000 also pays the £440 supplement in years two to six.

Question 4

Should I buy a new or a used Audi A3?

Accepted Answer

A new A3 brings the full factory warranty and your choice of engine and trim. A two- or three-year-old car is the same fourth generation and costs noticeably less, after the steepest depreciation.
