Product Overview

Audi A3 Sportback (Typ 8PA) facelift is an affordable 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, Audi primarily updated the light design and added a 7-speed DCT transmission. In all other respects, the facelifted Mk2 A3 Sportback is comparable to the pre-facelift.

Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Audi A3 Sportback only has fully independent suspensions in quattro AWD models.
