Audi A3 2011-Best Performance

The Audi A3 is the German automaker’s smallest and least expensive model sold in North America. The four-door hatchback comes standard with a 200 horsepower 2.0 liter inline-four engine, which achieves peak output between 5100 and 6000 rpm. Max torque of 207 pound-feet is available from 1800 to 5000 rpm.

Customers have the choice of a regular six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed DSG gearbox, which provides high-speed shifts without a clutch pedal. Gear changes are made via paddle shifters mounted behind the steering wheel. The DSG (aka S-tronic) transmission can also operate in a fully automatic mode.

Basic configurations of both the DSG and Manual versions of the A3 are offered in front-wheel-drive only. Quattro all-wheel-drive is available, but only on the 3.2 V6 S-Line model, which provides considerably better performance.
