Audi is extending its range of particularly fuel-efficient, low-emission ultra models in the A3 car line. Equipped with the 110 kW (150 hp) 1.4 TFSI engine, they combine high performance with exemplary economy.
Boasting a top speed of 220 km/h (136.7 mph) and acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in just 8.1 seconds, the Audi A3 1.4 TFSI ultra demonstrates its sporting talent. On the other hand, the three‑door model is very modest when it comes to fuel consumption and emissions: The four‑cylinder version uses a mere 4.7 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers (50.0 US mpg) over the combined cycle; this equates to CO2 emissions of 109 g/km (175.4 g/mi).The new offering of a 1.4‑liter TFSI engine is available in combination with either a manual 6‑speed transmission or a 7‑speed S tronic. The power unit with cylinder on demand technology is also available in all four body versions of the A3 car line – as a three‑door model, a five‑door Sportback, a Sedan and as an elegant Cabriolet.
Audi also offers an A3 ultra version with 1.6 TDI engine. This power unit has already been available for the three‑door version and the Sportback since 2013. In future, the A3 Sedan can likewise be outfitted with this 81 kW (110 hp) diesel engine. It gets through just 3.3 liters of diesel fuel per 100 kilometers (71.3 US mpg) and emits only 88 grams of CO2 per kilometer (141.6 g/mi).
