Audi A3
The A3 hatchback is Audi’s entry-level car. It comes with either a gas or diesel 2.0L engine and factory-standard FWD. But like all Audis, quattro AWD is also available on option. The A3’s chassis is very similar to the Volkswagen GTI’s. Meanwhile, the TDI trim does a great job, balancing fuel efficiency, luxury and driving pleasure.
