Product Overview

Audi A3 (Typ 8P1) facelift is a compact hatchback in production from 2008 to 2013. It was available with a range of inline-4 and VR6 engines that displaced 1.2 to 3.2 liters.

Compared to the pre-facelift model, this facelift was primarily cosmetic, though Audi introduced 7-speed DCT for select engines. Audi also undated the lighting situation, which is hardly surprising.

Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Audi A3 (8P1) has fully independent suspension only in the quattro AWD models.
