Audi delivers a fully redesigned A3 for 2022 with a mild hybrid engine, better tech, and sharp styling. Is it better than the 2021 model?
Allow us to let you in on a little secret: For many buyers, the badge does matter. The way a car makes them feel when they see it in their driveway or a parking lot is in many ways just as valid a reason for them to own it as how well it drives, its features-per-dollar value, or its road isolation..
Likewise, the A3's mild hybrid setup is responsible for such refined low-speed behavior that we initially could have sworn it was fitted with a conventional automatic as opposed to its dual-clutch auto, many of which have a tendency to exhibit jerky, unrefined tendencies while creeping along in traffic. Not so in the new A3. Its dual-clutcher also delivered quick, crisp shifts when we drove with enthusiasm, which proved to be a best-of-both-worlds scenario.
Indeed, Audi's powerplant, while smooth and torquey, leaves something to be desired at full throttle during passing maneuvers. The kind of driver who regularly prods the go pedal to the carpet will wish they had gone for the 306-hp S3. Our test vehicle came equipped with the standard 10.3-inch digital instrument cluster display, as opposed to Audi's 12.3-inch Virtual Cockpit setup that is included in the Technology package. The screen clearly displayed plenty of high-resolution information, including Google Maps navigation data, and we didn't find ourselves wanting for the larger screen.
