In a year when the automotive industry seems to be leaning towards larger and more robust models, Audi proves with the 2024 Audi A3 that there is room for innovation even in the compact class. This car, which first saw the light of day in 1996, has long been Audi's answer to the Golf, and the facelifted version further consolidates its position as the top product in the segment.

With a more advanced design, expanded standard equipment and new materials, the A3 is becoming sportier, more comfortable and more digitized than ever before. The ability to adjust daytime light signatures, applications that can be used directly on the vehicle screen, and the ability to add vehicle functions on demand at any time allow for a high degree of customization.

It stands out among the novelties A3 allstreet, the distinctive crossover of the A3 family, which, with its distinctive off-road appearance, three centimeters of extra ground clearance compared to the Audi A3 Sportback and a higher seating position, offers an SUV-like driving experience combined with high functionality.

The exterior of the Audi A3 is sportier than ever. Its dynamic character is further emphasized by new, distinctive metallic colors such as District Green, Ascari Blue and Progressive Red. While the interior of the vehicle now contains many innovations that emphasize the advanced and technical appearance of the vehicle. The standard equipment has been significantly expanded, which further raises the level of comfort.

Also not to be overlooked is the option to choose between up to four different digital daytime running light signatures in the MMI, which is new to the A3 model series. This gives customers greater customization and allows them to change the look of their model at any time.

In the digital age, the A3 keeps up with the times by offering a host of connectivity services, on-demand features and an app store. Standard equipment includes DAB+ digital radio and a 10.1-inch touchscreen, along with the Audi Virtual Cockpit and induction smartphone charger.

When it comes to driving assistance, the Audi A3 and A3 allstreet already come with a high level of safety as standard. Collision prevention system, lane change assist and lane departure warning are just some of the functions that help prevent accidents with other road users.

In terms of price, the A3 Sportback with 35 TFSI S tronic starts at 35,650 euros in Germany, the additional cost for the Sedan version is 800 euros, while the A3 allstreet with 35 TFSI and 110 kW (150 PS) costs from 37,450 euros.

With all these upgrades and innovations, the 2024 Audi A3 stays true to its roots as a premium compact car while setting new milestones in the segment. As always, Audi proves that it is not necessary to sacrifice sportiness and prestige for practicality and comfort - all this and more can be found in the new A3.
