2015 Audi A3 1.8T

Nice small car with plenty of room for driver. Rather small for backseat passengers and trunk just sufficient for one set of golf clubs. Good handling and economy with sports car appeal. Would prefer to see rear camera, mirrors folding in on locking vehicle added as standard.

A3 e-Tron performance plug-in hybrid

Despite being front-wheel drive (I prefer RWD), this car really does handle well. Sharp handling that feels connected to the road, while being one of the smoothest rides I've ever driven or ridden in. The car is silent and completely smooth when in all-electric (EV) mode, which I have come to enjoy more than I ever thought I would. I drive 65 miles round-trip per day without the ability to re-charge in between and still average 44 MPG at 75 MPH! It's been a very good vehicle all-around.

Most FUN to DRIVE hybrid - electric ever!

This is so fun to drive. It's like having 4 cars in one. I have a hybrid, an all electric car, a Volt and a classic A3 motor vehicle. With a touch of a button a can control the car any way that I see fit. The review on car n driver can't even begin to describe the feeling of driving it because everyone wants to compare it to a stupid Prius or a Volt. Not even close.

Audi A3 E-Tron

Smooth ride with great acceleration. The car was red with lettering an side panels. Although a prototype at the time, was very worthy of admiration. Dashboard and concept were very unique and have been duplicated since then. A great buy for the commute to work.
