Sportier design refresh
Audi has refreshed the design of the new A3 and it looks a lot sportier than the model it replaces. Speaking of the changes, the radiator grille has been redesigned with a flatter and wider stance along with a new mesh pattern. The front bumper also houses the larger vertically-placed air intakes for a meaner look. In addition, the new A3 also features updated LED DRLs, which now support up to four different signature designs. Users can change the appearance of the LED DRLs via the selection menu in the infotainment system.
Updated interior
Audi has also made small yet significant changes to the interior of the new A3, which uplift its appeal. These changes not only include visual and functional elements but also more standard features across trim levels. Speaking of the visual changes, the new A3 features a new shifter design, redesigned AC vents, new interior lighting and two new decorative fabric inlays. The standard features of the updated A3 include a leather-wrapped steering wheel, air conditioning, ambient lighting package and front centre armrest.
Updated MMI infotainment
Another highlight of the 2024 Audi A3 is its updated MMI infotainment system. In addition to the small refinements in its operation, Audi has also integrated its store for third-party app support. Furthermore, Audi is also offering subscription-based services to new and existing owners via the myAudi app. Users can choose to subscribe to services like smartphone integration with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, adaptive cruise control, auto high beam and even dual-zone climate control.
Off-road-ready A3 Allstreet
Another introduction to the A3 model range is the new Allstreet trim. Apart from a differently designed radiator grille, which is placed higher with a different honeycomb mesh, and tweaked front and rear bumpers with a three-part grooves design, the A3 Allstreet rides 30mm higher off the ground over the regular A3 hatchback. The increased ground clearance not only elevates its visual appeal but also makes it more practical over rough roads. In addition, the seating position of the A3 Allstreet is also raised for a commanding driving position.
