A total of five engines are available for the Audi A3 Sportback, all have state-of-the-art four-cylinder units featuring direct injection and turbocharger technology. The strengths of the TFSI® and TDI® units: propulsive power, refinement and efficiency.
To be fast you need a potent engine. To keep ahead you need an engine that is smart when it comes to energy use. The TFSITFSIAudi was the first manufacturer in the world to combine petrol direct injection with turbocharging in large-scale car productionTFSI ® and TDITDISynonymous with muscular torque delivery and outstanding efficiency: TDI. Today, TDI engines are sporty, smooth and economical.TDI ® engines for the Audi A3 Sportback deliver both: outstanding performance along with the lowest possible fuel consumption.
The performance spectrum of the three TFSI® engines ranges from 92 kW (125 bhp) in the Audi A3 Sportback 1.4 TFSI to 147 kW (200 bhp) in the Audi A3 Sportback 1.8 TFSI Sport S tronicS tronicFaster gearshifts, sportier driving: the S tronic combines the sporty characteristics of a manual gearbox with the advantages of an automatic.S tronic .
