2020 Audi A3 Sportback: All specs and features about it

The Volkswagen Group is getting ready to face its rivals in the luxury compact class with the fourth generation Audi A3 Sportback against the BMW 1 Series and the Mercedes-Benz A-Class. 

Specs and features of 2020 Audi A3 Sportback

The 2020 Audi A3 Sportback is very similar to the previous generation in size and overall shape.But the touches made with the design philosophy used for the brand's new models have managed to turn the A3 Sportback into a more modern and stylish car. 

Among the notable design details of the 2020 Audi A3 Sportback are the larger honeycomb pattern hexagonal grille, angular form air intakes, the new LED daytime running lights and the muscular engine hood.

The 2020 Audi Sportback is 4.34 meters long and 1.82 meters wide. We see that the vehicle is only 3 cm longer than its predecessor.

The 2.64 meter axle distance has not changed in the transition between generations. The 2020 Audi Sportback can also be purchased with an electric tailgate, which can be controlled with a foot movement. It has 380 liters  luggage volume. This value rises to 1200 liters when the rear seats are folded.

When we look from the side, we see a more muscular image than before. The shoulder line and wide fenders that start from the corner of the headlights and continue towards the back support this view. On the back are thin LED stops, a diffuser with chrome details and a small luggage spoiler.

Interior design

A brand new console is waiting for the drivers in the interior of the 2020 Audi A3 Sportback. The position and shape of the air vents in front of the driver seem to be inspired by Lamborghini. The older generation infotainment screen has been replaced by a new 12.3-inch screen embedded in the console.

The section where the air conditioning controls are made has also been renewed. The center console has a ‘start / stop’ button, USB ports and a wireless charging unit.

The 2020 Audi A3 Sportback will be available with three engine options in the first place: a 150-liter 1.5-liter TFSI gasoline, a 2.0-liter TDI diesel with 116 horsepower and 150 horsepower outputs.

All versions will be front-wheel drive and the produced power will be transferred to the wheels via a 6-speed manual or 7-speed S-Tronic transmission. In the future, there will be a lower volume 1.0 liter TFSI engine, as well as light hybrid and compressed natural gas powered versions.

The starting price for gasoline versions of the vehicle was announced as £28, 900 euro.
