2013 Audi A3 line is designed with concise, and compact
dimensions. Length of 4237 mm (13.90 feet) high and 1421 mm (4.66 feet) in
practically the same as the previous model. But the proportion is sporty: Car
wheelbase grows by 23 mm (0.91 inches) to 2601 mm (8.53 ft). Front overhang is
shorter now, and its width increased by 12 mm (0.47 inches) to 1777 mm (5.83
ft).
At launch, Audi offers a TDI and two TFSI engine for the new
A3, three four-cylinder engine was developed from the ground up. They bundle
many efficiency technologies - direct injection, turbocharging, and the
innovative thermal management start-stop system. Engine downsizing concept -
reduce the displacement by supercharging - means high power with low fuel
consumption. Compared with previous models, fuel consumption has been reduced
by an average of about 12 percent.
The 1.4 TFSI, with a displacement of 1395 cc engine, producing 90 kW (122 hp) of power and 200 Nm (147.51 pounds-ft) of torque, the latter is already available from 1,500 rpm. This engine accelerates the A3 from zero to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in 9.3 seconds and top speed to 203 km / h (126.14 mph). Combined fuel consumption is a mere 5.2 liters per 100 km (45.23 U.S. mpg), equivalent to CO2 emissions of 120 grams per km (193.12 g / mile).
The 1.8 TFSI - with a capacity of 1798 cc of engine - generating 132 kW (180 hp) and the output 250 Nm (184.39 pounds-ft) of torque between 1,250 and 5,000 rpm. It combines direct injection with an additional injection into the induction pipe, valve stroke varies according to load and use the Audi valvelift system uses a very complicated system thermal management to quickly heat up the engine after a cold start. Its key performance data: zero to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in 7.2 seconds, top speed 232 km / h (144.16 mph), a combined fuel consumption of 5.6 liters per 100 km (42.00 U.S. mpg), equivalent to 130 g CO2 per km (209.21 g / mile).
2.0 TDI with a displacement of 1968 cc also offers high performance thermal management systems. Two balancer shafts removed from the crankcase into the oil pan, which obviously increases the engine runs smooth. Producing 110 kW (150 hp) and 320 Nm (236.02 pounds-ft), this diesel provides incredible strength.
A3 2.0 TDI sprints from a standstill to 100 km / h (62.14 mph) in 8.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 216 km / h (134.22 mph). In combined mode, requiring only 4.1 liters per 100 km (57.37 U.S. mpg) - equivalent to CO2 emissions of 106 g per km (170.59 g / mile).
Audi will expand its line-up the engine of the A3 model series step by step. A dynamic model of S and version of the highly efficient and low emission others are planned, including the CNG version for operation with natural gas or Audi e-gas.
A version with a particularly efficient 1.6 TDI engine will debut in 2012; consumes only 3.8 liters diesel/100 km (61.90 U.S. mpg), equivalent to 99 g/CO2 (159.33 g / mile). There is no restriction whatsoever on a variety of features for highly efficient versions; Audi A3 is also complete.
At the market launch of the A3, Audi will pair 1.4 TFSI and 2.0 TDI with six-speed manual transmission. The 1.8 TFSI, the seven-speed S tronic is standard, dual-clutch transmission is very efficient to integrate functions along with Audi's freewheeling hard choose. All transmission power transfer to the front wheels, while the quattro permanent all-wheel drive will follow during this year. Center is a multi-plate hydraulic clutch. If necessary, the variables can distribute power between front and rear wheels - lightning-fast and according to the momentary driving situation.
