Audi A3 Overview
The Audi A3 is a luxury subcompact car first introduced in the mid-1990s by Audi AG. The current A3 sedan is the facelifted third generation of the nameplate that comes in several models which included a hybrid car, the A3 Sportback e-tron. The 4th generation A3 was set to be released last March 2020 during the Geneva Motor Show. However, because of the Covid-19 pandemic which caused lockdowns and prevents the gathering of over 1,000 people, the event was canceled. Despite that, the 2020 Audi A3 Sedan was released online in the latter part of April sporting a sleeker look, new engines, and major upgrades on the cabin.

Audi A3 Interior
Inside the posh cabin is a driver-centric instrument cluster with tons of immersive technology. The three-spoke multifunction steering wheel is the foreground for the fully digital instrument cluster. On the center of the dashboard is the 7-inch infotainment display compatible with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The infotainment is partnered to a 10-speaker Audi sound system for the driving soundtrack while the ambient LED interior lighting help sets the mood of the drive. Seats wrapped in premium leather mechanically adjusts for lumbar support and driver comfort. The leather upholstery is matched by leather-wrapped gear selector and aluminum inlays to complete the posh vibe. The dual-zone automatic climate control air conditioning system is integrated with activated charcoal air filters to minimize allergens. But the round, protruding design of the AC vents is a bit awkward and looks dated with all the modern tech features.

Audi A3 Exterior
The new 2020 Audi A3 sedan shares similar design qualities from the prior model but gets a sportier new look. First to catch the eye is the robust single-frame front grille flanked by equally imposing dual air intake on the lower side and a pair of full LED headlights with boomerang-shaped daytime running lights on the top sides. The dual crease on the bonnet and creases on the side not only adds to the aesthetic but also for aerodynamics. The rear side features a mid-rear spoiler and dual exhaust to round up the sporty appearance. On top are a shark fin antenna and a panoramic sunroof that allows for natural light to penetrate the cabin.
The A3 luxury sedan measures 4,458 mm long, 1,415 mm tall, 1,961 mm wide, and has a wheelbase of 2,637 mm. This subcompact executive saloon rides on a set of 18-inch 5-arm-trapezoid design high-gloss black finish rims wrapped in 225/40 all-season tires. Standard exterior color comes in Brilliant Black, Ibis White, and Quantum Gray with seven other metallic shades to choose from.

Audi A3 Ride & Handling
When it comes to handling, the Audi A3 is a well-balanced sedan. The lightweight technology utilized by Audi uses a fully galvanized steel unibody with an aluminum hood and front subframe that removes unnecessary weight for secure handling. The speed-sensitive electromechanical power steering system that comes standard needs little effort when navigating roads or parking the car. Even when shifting on high gears, the Audi 3 remains easy to handle, responsive, and predictable.
In terms of riding comfort, the suspension system, handled by MacPherson on the front and four-link at the rear helps maintain balance, coupled that with interior refinement makes for a smooth and cushioned ride. At least for the front passengers as the rear cabin feels tight for three grown adults with narrow seats and cramped legroom and shoulder room. But kudos for connectivity features (i.e. USB ports and Bluetooth) and cubbies for drinks and small items to keep the sedan organized.

Audi A3 Verdict
The Audi A3 lives up to its name of being a modern, luxury sedan. Its standout exterior quality coupled with modern tech and features makes it for a fun car to drive. But despite all its fancy features, the Audi A3 gets a dismal rating of 2.5 stars from J.D. Power’s predicted reliability rating. The below-average rating is due mostly on the prior model and the several recalls from the last few years which include fuel leakage issues, airbags deploying improperly, and gearbox malfunction among others. Still, the new 2020 Audi A3 is a polished, executive sedan that has been refined and built-in quality which enhances its feel-good factor.
