On account of its high torque of 250 Nm at 1,900 rpm, the 77 kW (105 bhp) four-cylinder engine allows a relaxed driving style coupled with a supreme performance. Thanks, among other things, to its intelligent control and extremely quick gearshifts, the S tronic ensures better acceleration. Like all TDI engines in the Audi range, the 1.9-litre version is fitted as standard with a diesel particulate filter. The A3 1.9 TDI with S tronic is available starting at €23,450.

The new model year will also see the addition of numerous new equipment elements to the A3 range. A new generation of the Audi navigation system with large monochrome display, MP3-compatible single CD player and MMI operating logic is making its debut.

The optional interface for an iPod audio player is also new. This enables MP3 files to be played over the Audi A3's audio system and enjoyed in concert-hall quality.
