Overview
There's quite a lot in the A3 Sportback that may go un-noticed at first glance. What appears to be little different from its predecessor is actually a completely new vehicle, a product of sophisticated manufacturing processes. And then there's the substantially rolled back pricing for an all turbo, improved efficiency, lighter weight and more agile package. The interior is particularly special, with high comfort, good ergonomics and attention to detail. Boot/luggage space is also better than most, aided by the 60/40 folding rear seat backs. Safety features that are already excellent can be enhanced with features normally reserved for higher tier models.
