Flexible driving pleasure: the technology
As a plug-in hybrid, the Audi A3 Sportback TFSI e² combines the advantages of both a combustion engine and an electric motor. In combination with a lithium-ion battery, the electric motor provides sporty support to the 1.4-litre TFSI engine but also impresses in all-electric mode. The engine and the electric motor offer a combined output of up to 204HP (150 kW). As a result, the vehicle accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.6 seconds. The suspension of the Audi A3 Sportback TFSI e² is sporty and balanced, producing a satisfying equilibrium of dynamism and driving comfort.
Tailored to requirements: The performance
The Audi A3 Sportback TFSI e² combines the best of both worlds: In all-electric mode it produces very little noise and zero local emissions. Despite the low noise level, the electric motor offers a powerful drive. This is because electric motors offer the advantage of being able to directly tap into impressive torque right from the word go. In addition, the combustion engine allows for sporty manoeuvres on long journeys without having to stop and recharge. All-electric, partly electric or combustion – the performance of the Audi A3 Sportback TFSI e² can be tailored to the driver’s requirements.
Choice of drive type: Four driving modes
The drive concept is designed to allow the majority of everyday short trips to be completed in all-electric mode. In the Audi A3 Sportback TFSI e², the drive type used is regulated via four different driving modes: purely electric driving (EV), the primary use of the combustion engine to maintain (hold) or increase (charge) the battery charge for later electric driving, or the efficient interaction (hybrid).
Re-energise away from home. And charge your Audi:
Audi charging⁵ at more than 400,000 public charging points in 27 European countries. With tariffs for occasional use or regular charging also on long journeys. Can be used conveniently with RFID card or myAudi app⁶. With integration into MMI and into the e-tron route planner.
Digital and intuitive: The display
The plug-in hybrid’s fully digital instrument cluster features an integrated power meter³. This shows the system’s total output and the driving mode, as well as the battery charge and the resulting remaining range. In addition, the power meter indicates whether or not energy is being recovered through recuperation and fed into the battery.
Dynamic and striking: The exterior
The Audi A3 Sportback TFSI e² takes a compact stance on the road. Its wide hexagonal Singleframe grille dominates the front view. The V-shaped shoulder line runs from the headlights to the rear lights, visually stretching the vehicle. Its wheel arches are accentuated and the striking body shoulders stand out. Audi calls this progressive design feature quattro blisters. The heavily inclined C-pillars also lend this five-door vehicle compelling visual momentum. The TFSI e badge on the luggage compartment cover signals that this is a member of the Audi plug-in hybrid family.
The interior³ of the Audi A3 Sportback TFSI e² is characterised by the black-panel look of the instrument panel and centre console. The width of the cockpit is emphasised by horizontal lines and surfaces with a clear design. The cockpit is focused entirely on the driver. Even the redesigned climate control operating unit is angled slightly towards the driver. The optional contour and ambient lighting package, which offers a choice of 30 colours for a more atmospheric interior, enhances the vehicle’s individuality.
