AUDI A3 HATCHBACK (2012-16) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 TDI DPF SS 105 EU5 SPORT 6SPD

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The AUDI A3 HATCHBACK (2012-16) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 TDI DPF SS 105 EU5 SPORT 6SPD is a compact, three-door hatchback with a more upmarket feel than many mainstream family cars. It sits among popular UK choices such as the Volkswagen Golf, BMW 1 Series and Mercedes A-Class, appealing to drivers who want smart styling without moving to a larger car.
The 1.6-litre diesel is suited to regular commuting and longer journeys, offering an economical-minded alternative to petrol rivals. Its Sport trim and six-speed manual give it a purposeful, engaging feel, while the three-door layout works best for couples, solo drivers or small households rather than families needing easy rear-seat access. A refined cabin and premium badge are key attractions.
