If you want to drive a premium family hatchback, an Audi A3 lease offers one of the most luxurious experiences available. A range of petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid options in Sportback or Saloon body styles means there is a version for everyone. The Audi A3 delivers more choice, a sharper style and excellent practicality and more cutting-edge tech than its competitors, making this Audi a hugely popular leasing choice.
Sharp and sleek style.
Available as a Sportback hatch and 4-door Saloon.
Has a wide range of engines.
Like all Audis, the A3 enjoys a premium image with a quality and high-tech interior. Almost mirroring the smaller Audi A1’s set-up, all A3s feature a twin-screen interior. Audi’s 10.25-inch ‘Digital Cockpit’ fully digital instrument cluster sits alongside a 10.1-inch central touchscreen. Featuring clear and sharp graphics, the system is impressive, with plenty of gloss black and aluminium trim inlays to give the A3’s interior an upmarket air.
The premium interior and wide range of engines and performance options make the Audi A3 a quality alternative to competing manufacturers and models like the Seat Leon and Volkswagen Golf.
Known for its advanced engine technology, Audi’s latest TDI diesel and TFSI petrol engines give good economy, and the plug-in hybrid TFSIe petrol-electric units combine higher performance with between 37-41 miles of zero-emissions range.
As a guide, the petrol-powered A3 Sportback TSI’s fuel economy starts in the high-30s, the TDIs bettering that by almost 30mpg – and it’s similar for the A3 Saloon.
If you’re looking for serious performance, the 4-wheel-drive S3 Sportback and S3 Saloon are real firecrackers, reaching 62mph in just 4.8 seconds and topping out at a limited 155mph. These more powerful sports S3 models offer up mid-30s mpg.
As you’d expect, the electrified plug-in hybrids offer the best economy of all, ranging from 235.4-282.5mpg on the official WLTP cycle.
Compact family cars is a crowded market and the Audi A3 is up against some stiff competition, including the equally ‘premium’ BMW 1 Series and Mercedes-Benz A-Class, as well as slightly less plus Volkswagen Golf.
