 A3 road - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The A3 is a trunk road in Southern England, connecting London to Portsmouth.
For some of its length, the road follows a similar line to the Portsmouth Direct Line railway, although one of the major exceptions is that the A3 does not go through or closely bypass Havant.
However, a programme of road improvements starting in the 1930s transformed the road so that is now predominantly a two or three lane dual carriageway, bypassing the town centres, with a section of motorway, the A3(M), just before the road reaches the A27.

The A3 is an example of the exquisite sensibilities in design and use of materials that distinguishes the contemporary Audi.
Audi says the A3 2.0 T Sportback sprints from 0 to 60 mph in 7.0 seconds, a modest figure by some standards, but the raw number doesn't begin to do justice to the engine's throttle response and the chassis' willingness to get from here to there.

 Audi A3 - Diesel Road Test

 Audi A3 Five-door Hatch NRMA car review - Motoring - MyNRMA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Prices for the A3 range now start at $35,400 for the manual 1.6 litre version (tested) and while that may still seem a lot compared with similar size hatches from Japan and Korea, it's not bad value for a quality European hatch with the equipment levels the A3 provides.
Out on the open road, the 1.6 performs quite satisfactorily provided the driver is prepared to use the gearbox to good advantage.
Overall, the Audi A3 won't necessarily grab the attention of bargain shoppers, rather its appeal is more for the discerning buyer who appreciates high quality construction, superior chassis dynamics and above-average levels of equipment.

 VWvortex Forums: The REAL reason there is no Quattro on the 2.0T A3....
I know there is a fine line between the A3 and a wagon, but I want to hold onto whatever shred of non-soccer mom pride I have left.
Is the FWD just as fast, if not faster at a drag strip or on the track, it would reason that yes it is in fact faster in those situations, but real-world drivability in inclement weather is of higher priority to me, though the cheaper and more efficient 2.0T is also preferable.
The 2.0TFSI A3 has 207 lb-ft (as stated, likely a bit more as dynoed) and maintains that over such an unusual broad range (1800-5000rpm), that it clearly deserves quattro more than the peakier 225hp TT (that has the same torque at 20% higher rpms).
