@fazalwahab11375: want to ask couple of ques as u have more knowledge in Audi & VW, I m waiting for Audi A3 sedan 1.8 tfsi but m concerned about the space especially bak seat. M driving markx from last 4.5 years as its big plus rwd also my wife n kids comfortably sit, my dad got audi A4 B8.5 1.8tfsi last year but I don’t like the fwd n the power is ok compare to my car but A3 sedan with same engine with 10hp more but being lightweight its quicker than A4 almost 1sec difference from 0-100kph tht wat made me want to buy A3 sedan plus price is really good. Any suggestion u can give as I think A3 hatch n VW golf r same size so maybe the sedan got same space?

[fazalwahab11375]

well, A3 hatch, A3 Sedan, Golf, Golf GTI are are having same MQB platform. They have almost same front and rear legroom except the boot. In the last 5 months I have almost test driven every other week to decide. A3 is nice car for young buyer with small family. ( kids/toddler). A3 sedan has almost exactly same space what an A3 hatchback is and for that matter almost same as what GTI has.

MK7 GTI

Asof your question, the above figures will give you a decent idea. Compare A3 and Civic dimensions for a better idea.

@fazalwahab11375: i have civic 2011 also for dailydriven n the rear space is quite good but not spacious as mark x n Audi A4, i sat in one of the CLA200 cgi here in showroom n it got worse rear space.....one more ques i dont understand why Audi A3 sedan 1.8tfsi is 180hp & 250nm torque with 7 speed s-tronic while same engine in audi a4 1.8tfsi is 170hp but 320nm torque with 8 speed multitronic...is it coz of gearbox or detuned the torque for A3?

[fazalwahab11375]

yes.. The A4 is bigger and heavier but same engine. The engine displacement is same but torque and HP outputs are different due to maybe different transmission and maybe some engine tuning.

The MK7 GTI has Latest EA888 2L turbocharged engine. My car has performance pack so its 220HP otherwise it makes 210HP and 258 foot-lb of torque. same engine comes with 1.8L displacement as well. EA888 series engine is in A3 and A4 as well. Also in Q5 and A5 but the output numbers are different.

Curb weights

A3 sedan 1.8L 3,362 Lbs / 2L 3369 lbs

A4 sedan 3,516 lbs to 3,693 lbs (depending upon engine size)

GTI 2941 Lbs .

putting same EA888 2L in all above, makes GTI faster among all above. As far as rear legroom; if civic is tight for you.. A3 will surely feel much tighter

the weight of my audi A4 1.8 is 1490kg (3285lbs)
weight of of new A3 sedan 1.8 is 1295kg (2855lbs)

i got the kerb weight from audi here n these r FWD with some options for Pakistan spec.....yea both 1.8l n 2l are EA888 series btw A4 & A3 rear legroom is almost same n civic got bigger than both but i feel more leg space in Audi A4 compare to my civic....i hope i wont feel tighter in A3

[fazalwahab11375]

humm. US 1.8T is 3108 lbs while 2.0 T quattro is 3630 lbs( 2L all are quattro and no FWD on US models).

yes i checked every A3 sedan speicifications of different countries...1.8T quattro is option here n have to special order but we dont get snow or icy winter so fwd is better choice.....btw power is ok for me the weight of A3 sedan is really gud which is why it is fast as 2013 C250cgi n 320i 2013
