    Rumorpile: Audi A3 Sedan

    January 25, 2012

    Last year at the Geneva Motor Show, Audi pulled the covers off an A3 Sedan concept, complete with an 408 HP five-cylinder engine. Well, Audi is putting forth an A3 Sedan for the U.S. minus the 408 HP engine.

    Renderings from Road & Track show the A3 carrying a family resemblance to other Audis, with a large front grill, flared out fenders, and sculpted sides. The A3 Sedan will be about six inches longer than the current A3 five-door.

    Power will come from 2.0L four-cylinder gas and diesel engines. Hybrid and electric models are expected. Base A3s will come with FWD and a six-speed manual, while quattro and 7-speed S-tronic transmission will be available.

    The A3 sedan will arrive at U.S. dealers sometime in 2013.

    Shouldn't that be an A2 (in keeping with their naming conventions)?

    No, because Audi already used the A2 moniker for a model sold in europe

    and A2 is rumored to be making a comeback sometime in the next few years

    • I have to say this is an interesting read and I align with what the editorial author is saying. Biden’s FTC just exposed one of the GOP and businesses’ biggest lies to workers (msn.com)
    • Interesting read, it does bring up a very important point, will the current CCS power walls work forward once everyone moves to NACS charge port?

    • Very interesting as I am seeing more and more of these lists dominated by the Hyundai/Kia/Genesis product lines. Autotrader's Best New Cars of 2024 - Autotrader
    • My latest quest is a possible upgrade of my turntable. Right now I run a Fluance RT 82.   I just upgraded my CD game with an Audiolab 6000 CDT.    I am enjoying a ton of Vinyl right now. Classical, some jazz albums almost free. older albums often sound quite good and can be picked up quite cheaply.
