Product Overview

Audi A3 Sportback (Typ 8V) is a compact hatchback in production from 2013 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 Sportback, the Mk3 model became sharper in styling, just like its 3-door sister model. Like the 3-door A3, the Sportback also lost the VR6 engine and has to do with I4s of rather small displacements.

Audi introduced a plugin-hybrid drivetrain that can help the owner save on fuel and car tax, though those who plan on keeping the car after warranty should be mindful of the complexity.

The official fuel economy rating is exceptionally rosy, though it may cast more doubts on the trustworthiness of the regulators and perhaps the owner's own sanity than it relates to reality. The Audi A3 Sportback (8V) also comes with a high towing capacity.

As usual, independent rear suspensions are reserved for quattro AWD models.
