Compact Hatchback

Product Overview

Audi A3 (Typ 8V) is a compact hatchback in production from 2012 to 2016, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.2 to 2.0 liters.

Compared to the Mk2 A3, the Mk3 model lost the VR6 engine and has to do with smaller base engines, though the 2.0L TDI remained with more complex exhaust treatment systems.

Styling-wise, the 8V has a more modern, sharper design that comes with the times. Audi used the money that it's saved from the drivetrain to install intricate lights, leading many to call it the "lighting factory".
