A3:


Audi A3 Chosen as an Edmunds.com "Consumers' Most Wanted" Vehicle for 2006. In its annual survey, Edmunds.com visitors selected the Audi A3 as one of their favorite vehicles.

Automobile Magazine praised the A3's cabin, claiming that it "boasts typically fine quality, peerless ergonomics, and an excellent mix of A6, TT, and A4 Cabriolet design elements."

Test driving in Monaco, TheCarConnection.com applauded everything about the A3 from ease of parking to the new 2.0 T FSI® Direct Injection engine, which it calls "a techno milestone."

NewCarTestDrive.com considers the Audi A3 "an example of the exquisite sensibilities in design and use of materials that distinguishes the contemporary Audi."

AutoWeek says, "...we love our little Audi. It has delighted us in every way..."

"...the A3 drives like a TT with a back seat and a trunk, which is to say — way fun."

—Motor Trend, November 2004

"The A3 offers essentially the same utility as a small SUV, with a lot more driving satisfaction and, presumably, better mileage."

—AutoWeek, August 2004

"It's sporty, beautifully appointed, and its technology and build quality reflect the best efforts of Audi's studios and labs."

—European Car, November 2004

"The powerband is a wide one, the throttle sweetly tuned for quick tip-in, and the torque curve's as flat as can be expected from a turbo... the turbo four sounds and feels as silky as a six-cylinder."

—TheCarConnection.com, August 2004

"All in all, the A3 is a highly likable ride — high class, high content, and high quality."

—AUTOMOBILE Magazine, October 2004

After test driving the 2005 A6, AUTOMOBILE Magazine had this to say: "Compared with its direct rivals, the Audi's packaging is up there, it musters the most powerful six-cylinder engine in its class, and the six-speed manu-matic transmission and Quattro drivetrain add to the appeal."
