What are the differences between Audi A3 and A4?
2 Answers
The differences between Audi A3 and A4 lie in their positioning: The Audi A3 is positioned as a HatchBack-type sports car, while the A4 is positioned as a family-level Compact sedan. The Audi A3 is a compact car under FAW-Volkswagen Audi, with dimensions of 4312 mm in length, 1785 mm in width, and 1426 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2629 mm. In terms of configuration, the Audi A3 is equipped with features such as electrically adjustable front seats, front power windows, central locking, a radio system, an anti-lock braking system with electronic brake-force distribution, electronic stability control, and speed-sensitive power steering.
I've driven my friend's Audi A3 and A4, and the intuitive differences are quite noticeable. The A3 is a compact model, extremely agile to drive, making it perfect for zipping around the city. The A4, on the other hand, is a standard mid-size sedan with noticeably more spacious and comfortable rear seating, as well as a significantly larger trunk. In terms of driving, the A4 feels more stable and substantial, especially at high speeds where it feels particularly solid. The A4 is clearly more upscale in terms of features, such as interior materials, noise insulation, and noise reduction. The A3 is easy and carefree to drive, but if you frequently carry a full load or go on long trips, the A4's comfort and space advantages become apparent, justifying its higher price.
