Product Overview

Audi A3 Cabriolet (Type 8P7) is an affordable compact convertible in production from 2008 to 2013. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.2 to 2.0 liters.

Based on the A3 hatchback, the Cabriolet is, like all hatchback-based convertibles, quite awkward in styling. Worse, it uses a range of uninspiring engines, including diesels. Audi also used semi-independent rear suspensions: together, these elements make for a poor driving experience.
