Audi pricing 2015 A3 sedan starting at $29,900 in US; diesel, PHEV coming

Audi of America announced that base pricing for the 2015 A3 sedan in the US will start at $29,900. The A3 represents the entry level to the Audi brand. The A3 sedan also plays a pivotal role in the soon to be expanding Audi A3 family. It will be joined later in 2014 by the recently announced Audi A3 Cabriolet; A3 TDI clean diesel; the high-performance S3 sedan; and in early 2015, the A3 Sportback e-tron gasoline electric plug-in hybrid (PHEV).

The A3 sedan will offer versatile powertrains for a wide variety of entry-luxury customer tastes, including a 1.8 TFSI, 2.0 TFSI, 2.0 TDI clean diesel, and a high-output 2.0 TFSI offered in the S3. For superior traction and handling the A3 will also offer the legendary Audi quattro all-wheel drive which distributes power to the wheels that need it most.

All engines are mated to the standard 6-speed S tronic transmission.

The A3 will feature an all-new design and has been specifically tailored to meet the sedan preferences of the American market.
