2021 Audi A3 Sportback gets a new look
MANILA: It was back in 1996 when Audi brought out the A3 and laid the foundation of the premium compact class segment. Now, in 2020, the German automaker has rolled out the fourth-generation model in the form of 2021 A3 Sportback, which comes sporting a sporty appearance, modern-day tech & creature comforts, much powerful TDI and TFSI engine, a host of driver-assist systems, and what not!
Starting with the exterior, the 2021 Audi A3 Sportback flaunts a sporty and attractive look courtesy of a wider & lower single-frame grille that sits between a pair of L-shaped LED headlights. Then we have the wide wheel arches, new cuts & creases for a muscular appeal, slim LED taillights, large air inlets, chunky alloy wheels with low profile tyres, and other elements providing the new A3 Sportback with its unique and alluring styling.
Moving inside the 2021 Audi A3 Sportback, we are greeted by a driver-centric cabin design. Making way to the German car is an all-digital instrument cluster, leather upholstery, Audi connect key, Amazon Alexa personal assistant, a head-up display, various gloss black and silver trims, and a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with the Multi-Media Interface (MMI) system that features Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, wireless smartphone charging & connectivity, myAudi smartphone app, Google Earth imagery for navigation, and many other nifty features. Also, there is an even bigger 12.3-inch touchscreen on offer.
The engine options on the 2021 Audi A3 Sportback include a 1.5-litre TSI petrol motor capable of generating 150 PS of maximum power, a 2.0-litre TDI diesel making 116 PS, and the same 2.0-litre TDI diesel-fed mill churning out 150 PS of maximum power. As for the transmission options, customers can choose from a six-speed manual and a seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch gearbox. While the newly launched model comes featuring a front-wheel-drive system, models slated to be launched in the near future will also get the German automaker's Quattro all-wheel-drive as well.
On top of the basic safety features such as multiple SRS airbags, ABS with EBD, traction control, ISOFIX child seat mounts, and others, the 2021 Audi A3 Sportback also gets high-end safety and driver-assist features like autonomous emergency braking, emergency steering assist, adaptive cruise control, lane centering assist, lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, door opening warning, cross-traffic alert, and park assist.
