The 2014 Audi A3 automobile is being taunted before its casual first appearance at 2013 New York Auto show.
The car is proven under a piece, with only its outline visible. A glance of backseat of A3 automobile is also proven on Audi MediaTV, the German brand’s recent online channel.
The A3 is ready for sales in U.S. in second quarter of 2014. Audi of USA has confirmed that A3 sedan will see two unveilings, one at New York and international first appearance in April at 2013 Shanghai Auto Show.
Rivalry
The 2014 A3 is targeting 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class. The new CLA will reach U.S. dealerships in Sept 2013. The platform CLA begins at $30,825, along with a $925 location cost.
Under the Hood
Engine choices are required to carryover from its previous hatchback so anticipate choices to consist of a 1.8L TFSI with 180 horsepower (132 kW) and a 2.0L TDI generating 150 horsepower (110 kW) and 184 horsepower (135 kW). There could also be an S3 Cabrio with 300 horsepower (221 kW) and an RS3 version with a turbocharged 2.5L 5-cylinder engine that produces up to 400 horsepower (294 kW).
Scott Keogh, the president of Audi America said in a business call with correspondents recently that the A3 will be cost “below the A4 these days.” The 2013 A4 begins at $33,395, including location cost of $895.
Keogh has said that he predicted the A3 automobile to be “far more well-known in the States than in European countries.” The present A3 has marketed a hatchback, but the 2014 design is coming to the U.S. only in sedan structure. The car is targeting at younger Creation X and Y customers, who currently make up 46 % of Audi customers here, he mentioned.
Overall, Audi requires an old-fashioned strategy to proposition the 2014 Audi A3 automobile, hanging a piece over the car and make everyone wondering.
