The original A3 (or Type 8L) was appear back in June 1995, but introduced beginning in the European market for more than year in September 1996, marking Audi's return to the product of smaller cars following the demise of the Audi fifty in 1978. This was the commencement Volkswagen Group model to use the "PQ34" or "A4" platform, bearing a close resemblance to the contemporary Volkswagen Golf game Mk4, which arrived a year later. Within three years, this platform was used for total of seven cars.

The A3 was initially available only with a three-door hatchback torso, to present a more than sporty image than the Golf, in both front and four-wheel bulldoze. The inline four-cylinder engines were transversely mounted. The Audi A3 was the eighth model in the Audi lineup to use five valves per cylinder.

The United Kingdom marketplace first received the Audi A3 in November 1996.

In 1999 Audi expanded the range with the introduction of more powerful versions: a 1.8 turbo rated 180 PS (132 kW; 178 hp), and a one.nine TDI diesel engine with unit of measurement injector "Pumpe Düse" (PD) technology and variable geometry turbocharger. The iv-wheel-drive A3 ane.8T quattro used either the 150 PS (110 kW; 148 hp) or 180 PS (132 kW; 178 hp) engine, and the same Haldex Traction-based four-wheel-drive organisation as the Audi S3 and the Audi TT. Also in 1999, Audi also introduced a five-door body.

In late 2000 the A3 range was revised with new headlights and rear lamps, other pocket-sized cosmetic changes, an improved interior, and the introduction of a half dozen-speed manual gearbox, on the 180 PS (132 kW; 178 hp) 1.8 Turbo and the new 130 PS (96 kW; 128 hp) one.9 TDI.

Audi's electronic stability control, traction-control, and restriction force distribution figurer became standard equipment in some countries.

Although the first-generation Audi A3 was replaced in Europe in 2003, the first generation model connected to be sold in some markets. Production of the first generation model stopped in Brazil in 2006.

Safety [edit]

Euro NCAP rating of 4 out of 5 stars.^[5] Their evaluation ended "the cavalcade lock, adjuster lever and bracket presented hazards in the articulatio genus impact area for the driver. These could cause high loads on his upper legs and damage to his knees." The A3 also provides almost no protection to pedestrians, giving it two stars out of a possible four.^[5]

S3 (1999–2003) [edit]

Audi S3 (facelift) finished in Imola Yellow

Audi released the A3-derived Audi S3 in 1999, only as a iii-door hatchback. The inline-four 20v i.8 L turbocharged petrol engine came in two versions: 210 PS (154 kW; 207 hp) and 225 PS (165 kW; 222 hp). Early models (1999–2001) had 210 PS (154 kW; 207 hp). Later models (2001–2003) had variable valve timing and 225 PS (165 kW; 222 hp). The engine had a maximum of 280 N⋅chiliad (210 ft⋅lbf) torque. This was the start time a small-scale four-cylinder engine had been used in an Audi Due south-series car.

Although dubbed "quattro", the S3 uses a dissimilar four-bicycle drive system.^[vi] The Haldex Traction coupling adjusts the bias of torque distribution from the front end to rear beam equally grip requirements alter – virtually of the fourth dimension information technology operates as a front-wheel drive.

The S3 was sold in Europe, Japan, Mexico, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand.

The S3 was given a facelift in 2002, where it was given ane-piece headlights/indicator units, different front end wings, rear lights clusters, and some minor upgrades to interior trim.

Standard features include xenon HID headlamps with high pressure level washers and auto levelers, front fog lamps, 17" "Avus" alloy wheels with 225/45R17 tyres, electrically adjustable Recaro leather seats, climate control, alarm and electronic stability command with traction control.

Initial release [edit]

At the 2003 Geneva Motor Show, Audi launched the second generation of the A3, the Typ 8P, designed by Gary Telaak during 2000 (however, the terminal design was frozen in 2001). Originally launched only equally a three-door hatchback with 4-cylinder engines, it featured a new automobile platform (the PQ35 platform), a redesigned and more than spacious interior, new petrol engines with Fuel Stratified Injection (FSI), and standard half dozen-speed transmission gearboxes (except on the base ane.6).

In mid-2003 the line was updated with two sports-oriented models, a 2.0 Turbo-FSI version rated 200 PS (147 kW; 197 hp), and a iii.two L VR6 engine (for the first time) with 250 PS (184 kW; 247 hp). Haldex Traction-based quattro on-demand four-bike bulldoze, and the S-Tronic semi-auto gearbox were introduced as options (quattro is standard on the VR6) on models with engines over 140 PS (103 kW; 138 hp).

In 2005 the "Due south line" trim level, offering new decorative elements, became bachelor and the 3-door A3 received the same front-end styling features as the Sportback model. For the kickoff time, the A3 became available in the Northward American market, exclusively with the Sportback body, with the base 2.0 inline-iv FSI introduced in 2005 as a 2006 model, and the iii.two VR6 Quattro post-obit.

A3 Sportback (2004–2013) [edit]

The five-door "Sportback" model was introduced in June 2004. The A3 Sportback is 80 mm (3.one in) longer than the base three-door trunk, and includes improved rear cabin space and a larger luggage compartment (370 litres). Information technology likewise received the new "unmarried frame" front end grille originally introduced in the A8 W12, which was later adopted across the whole A3 range.

S3 (2006–2013) [edit]

In August 2006, Audi introduced the second generation S3. Offered in 3- and five-door body styles, the 2nd generation—Typ 8P—S3 is powered by a modified and uprated Volkswagen Group-sourced 2.0-litre turbocharged FSI petrol engine, with a maximum output of 195 kW (265 PS; 261 bhp). As with all Audi Due south models, the blueprint was done in-business firm by quattro GmbH. The engine features uprated high-performance pistons, revised boost/fuel mapping, increased turbocharger size (KKK K04) and larger intercooler. The most powerful form of this engine, and quattro four-wheel drive, makes for a 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) time of 5.5 seconds, and an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). Audi offers both six-speed manual and half dozen-speed S-Tronic automatic transmissions with the S3.

The spring ratings and dampers were revised, forth with the body kit. Like its predecessor, although badged a "Quattro" model, the S3 does not employ a Torsen center differential (as in other common Quattro models), but instead uses the Swedish Haldex Traction system in its on-demand four-wheel bulldoze transmission, due to the transverse engine layout.

Safety [edit]

Euro NCAP tested a second-generation Audi A3 with front airbags, side airbags, seatbelt pretensioners, and load limiters as standard. Despite Audi increasing the protection inside the car for the driver and passengers, pedestrian safety really got 33% worse compared to the first generation and Euro NCAP gave criticism for the auto offering virtually no protection at all on the forepart and scoring just one star from a possible four. "A poor result for a new car" was the verdict given for pedestrian safety later the exam.
