Audi Colombia has launched an update to its A3 model, incorporating Mild Hybrid (MHEV) technology in the Sedán Dynamic and Sportback S line variants. The main engine remains the 1.5 TFSI turbo, delivering 148 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque, paired with a seven-speed S tronic transmission. The new 48-volt electrical system recovers energy during decelerations and assists with starts, optimizing fuel consumption in urban settings without altering the conventional driving experience.
In performance terms, the A3 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.1 seconds and reaches a top speed of 231 km/h. It features a multilink rear suspension for greater stability, electromechanical steering, and front-wheel drive, prioritizing daily comfort and precision. Standard equipment includes the 10.25-inch Audi Virtual Cockpit Plus, a 10.1-inch central screen, smartphone connectivity, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and the Pre Sense system.
Differences between versions lie in design and cargo capacity: the Sedán Dynamic provides 425 liters of trunk space with a more sober aesthetic, while the Sportback S line includes 18-inch rims, Matrix LED headlights, and a sportier look, with 380 liters of cargo room. Base prices are 159.9 million pesos for the Sedán Dynamic and 175.9 million for the Sportback S line. The warranty covers five years or 50,000 kilometers.
