Considering to buy an Audi A3 1.2 TFSI 2017 model (109hp)

Hello Pakwheelers,

I am considering to buy an Audi A3 2017 with the engine capacity of 1.2 TFSI. I know that when someone says 1200cc, it seams way under power but considering that the engine is a turbo charge, is the acceleration, driving comfort is as good as Honda Civic 1.8 or Toyota Corrola 1.8? or is it more or less powerful? comments from A3 owners will be very helpful.

the car is easily the most affordable 0 meter german car available in Pakistan plus it is as attractive as an Audi should be but is it worth the money? I know the size of this car is bit small but this is not an issue for me.

if possible, please share the video of 0-100 KM acceleration.

Best Regards,
Ansar

its around 110bhp but the torque figures are good.
It should be pretty decent off the line.

You shouldn't compare it with a 1.8 Civic or corolla, but the car itself doesn't feel under powered at all, The HP and torque figures are more than sufficient for a car of this size.

I have audi A 4 2017 1.4 turbo charged. Previously I have been driving A 4 2015 1.8 and civic turbo 1.5.i will not compare it with civic as it is not justified , with previous audi which was 1.8 , inspite of a bigger size than its predecessor, this ones almost equal if not faster and more responsive due to lighter weight and most importantly the addition of dual clutch s tronic transmission. I have not driven A 3 but I'm sure it's as responsive as quick as it should be. And torque maters a lot in climb and stop go runs. Go for it and pl do not compare it with civics and grandes.
I have kept and driven both i.e. Turbo civic and grande. Different cars , different drive altogether. And QUALITY

Drove it with 4 people on board once and it's not under powered at all. Drive is good, features wise not as rich as the new civic or grande. It's acceleration from 0-100 km/h is ~9.8 secs as per some of the websites.

But as mentioned earlier due to good torque figures it doesn't feel under powered. For A3 the torque is 129lb·ft, for Civic 1.8 the torque is 128lb·ft and for Corolla 1.8 the torque is 129lb·ft (as per wikipedia).

Thank you everyone for your comments.

I have so far received mostly positive reviews and have booked an A3 with design line package.

Its faster than civic 1.8 or grande from 0-100 in terms of acceleration, but its small in size as compare to corolla as well.
