Audi has unveiled a new member of the A3 family, the Audi A3 allstreet. This premium hatchback takes the core strengths of the A3 Sportback and adds a touch of ruggedness and versatility, making it a compelling option for drivers seeking a stylish and functional car with a hint of crossover capability.
Elevated Stance and Off-Road Character
One of the most striking features of the A3 allstreet compact crossover is its increased ground clearance. Compared to the standard Audi A3 Sportback, the allstreet sits 1.2 inches higher off the ground, providing drivers with a better view of the road and enhanced capability when tackling light off-road trails or navigating challenging weather conditions. Audi says the suspension has also been tuned to provide a comfortable ride on various surfaces.
Progressive Design Language
While the A3 allstreet boasts a more adventurous persona, it doesn't compromise on the A3's signature design language. The new model retains its siblings' sleek and sophisticated look, featuring sharp lines, a sculpted single-frame grille, and distinctive LED headlights. Audi offers a variety of exterior color options, allowing drivers to personalize their A3 allstreet to match their style.
Functional Interior with Ample Space
The A3 allstreet's interior prioritizes both comfort and functionality. The cabin is crafted with high-quality materials and boasts a driver-centric design. The allstreet offers more headroom and legroom than the standard A3 Sportback, making it a comfortable choice for taller passengers and those who frequently carry passengers in the rear seats. The cargo area is also generously sized, with 380 liters of space expanding to 1200 liters with the rear seats folded. Standard roof rails add to the car's versatility, allowing you to easily carry additional cargo.
Technological Prowess
The A3 allstreet compact crossover has many advanced technologies designed to enhance the driving experience. The standard offering includes a virtual cockpit display, a user-friendly infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, and a suite of driver-assistance features. These features include automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control, making every drive on the road safer and more stress-free.
Engine Options and Performance
The A3 allstreet is available with a choice of two fuel-efficient engines. A 35 TFSI turbocharged four-cylinder unit producing 150 horsepower serves as the base engine, while a 35 TDI diesel option offering the same horsepower is also available for those seeking enhanced fuel economy. Both engines are paired with a smooth-shifting seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and offer a choice between front-wheel drive or Audi's renowned quattro all-wheel-drive system for superior traction in all weather conditions.
