The 2016 Audi A3 TDI Sportback turned up at the 2014 New York Auto Show wearing white over its diesel-driven FWD system and automatic transmission.
The diesel in question is a 2-liter turbo pushing 150 horsepower to the front through a standard six-speed S tronic transmission.
Inside, drivers can kick out the jams through the hatchback’s MMI infotainment and Bang & Olufsen audio systems while passengers make use of the on-board 4G LTE connection.
No word on pricing, fuel economy or other details beyond an arrival time of Summer 2015.

- Lou_BC Actuality a very reasonable question.
- Lou_BC Peak rocket esthetic in those taillights (last photo)
- Lou_BC A pickup for most people would be a safe used car bet. Hard use/ abuse is relatively easy to spot and most people do not come close to using their full capabilities.
- Lorenzo People don't want EVs, they want inexpensive vehicles. EVs are not that. To paraphrase the philosopher Yogi Berra: If people don't wanna buy 'em, how you gonna stop 'em?
- Ras815 Ok, you weren't kidding. That rear pillar window trick is freakin' awesome. Even in 2024.

Drop the V6 3.0 diesel from the A6 into this little body and you'd have a BEAST. With a stick. It's so good it's notgonnahappen.com.
Can we please have this without the diesel? It's tiny. It's light. The gas engine would be MUCH more fun, and economy would be just fine, too!
