Great fantastic review ! May i ask something ? Is this the standard suspension, sport suspension or the adaptive suspension ? I'm asking since you said it's smooth and i was wondering if the sport one is indeed smooth and not that harsh.
Hi Iasonas, I believe this one has the sports suspension. It's all relative. It feels very smooth for a sporty hatchback, however it's much stiffer than an equivalent SUV. The adaptive suspension is definitely the best option, however it's pricey here in Ireland!
What is the fuel consumption like on motorways? I do 200 miles a week with 100 miles of that bring on a motorway and the rest being stop start city driving and a few 50mph roads... WHAT MPG are you getting on motorways?
I had a 2015 A3 PHEV and it had the battery pack replaced twice in 7 years with the car being off the road for over 3 months, avoid this model at all costs! Audi and the dealer totally washed their hands of the situation and were unbelievable for what claims to be a premium brand and product.
Hello dear Sir. Does the A3 40 tfsi e facelift, have this neat ambient lighting across the dashboard? Is it only standard in s line and up category? Thank you 🙏
Hi. Just ordered one today. How long lead time did you wait? I'm currently waiting for an estimated delivery. Would appreciate your feedback. Thank you.
@@thegreek3174 I cancelled it. I waited 6 months. Then they pushed it back 2 months. Then 2 months came and went, then said another 4 months. So I cancelled my order and got a new Mercedes EQA250+ - 7 weeks from order to collection.
@@thegreek3174 hope your wait isn’t as long and you enjoy it. But I got sick of waiting. Lovely car. It’s stunning, but Audi massively messed me about with false timeQ Mercedes promised within 8 week- I didn’t expect it as Audi said the same. But it came in 7 weeks. And I love it
@deano 1 appreciate the information. Fingers crossed that I get a decent lead time. Otherwise, I may end up following suit. Beautiful choice in the EQA by the way. Enjoy mate. 👍
But why does it have less horsepower than a Golf GTE. is it something internally decided that they should not compete with each other or what. Golf GTE also has two genuine real exhaust pipes

Been waiting a year for this model…. Looking forward to getting it 😊

I think it’s part of the comfort pack.
I cannot understand why they don't do the phev option in the saloon.
Just ordered the 45 competition model in this colour 245ps.

This looks like the competition line to me?
Good Job Mate
How many horsepower does the electric motor have, is it about 115 horsepower or what?
148hp from petrol engine 54 horsepower from electric motor
Does charging the battery via the engine impact MPG?
Of course it does.
Think about the cost of gas and the tax. and if you live in Europe, you will probably get a subsidy on the price when you buy a hybrid car
is it awd / fwd / rwd ?
Hi, it’s front wheel drive 🚘
But why does it have less horsepower than a Golf GTE. is it something internally decided that they should not compete with each other or what. Golf GTE also has two genuine real exhaust pipes
Because this is the step down. The one competing with those category is the Audi 45 TFSI E this is the 40 e
remember one thing, an electric motor basically gives full torque from rev 300, which is basically nothing in a car context
@@Andersljungberg I don't see where that's relevant to what we're saying but yes you are correct it kicks in very low
For the size of car and price, the boot space is too small (same as Ford Fiesta). I would prefer a PHEV saloon because of that, if only there was one.
