2 Answers
The 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Audi A3 ranges from 7.7 to 9.5 seconds. The Audi A3 is a compact car under the Audi brand, available in both hatchback and sedan versions. There is also a high-performance version of the Audi A3, known as the S3. The front suspension of the Audi A3 uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a multi-link independent suspension. The five-door hatchback version of the Audi A3 has body dimensions of 4292mm in length, 1765mm in width, and 1423mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2578mm. The Audi A3 has undergone some detailed adjustments in its exterior design, featuring chrome accents on the air intakes and black reflective materials on the B-pillar.
I've been driving the Audi A3 35 TFSI with the 1.5T engine for over two years now. Officially, it does 0-100 km/h in 8.8 seconds, but in reality, it feels quite peppy off the line. No problem being the first to take off at traffic lights, and when overtaking, the power comes on promptly when you floor the throttle. If you opt for the 40 TFSI with the 2.0T engine, it's even quicker, hitting 100 km/h in around 7 seconds, making lane changes and overtaking on the highway more confident. But my version is more than adequate for daily city driving, with fuel consumption just over 6L/100km, striking a good balance with economy. For real thrills, you could look at the S3, with its 4.8-second acceleration that feels like a sports car, though the price is significantly higher.
