Winter is just ’round the corner – and you can’t beat the security of 4WD in the wet and snow. This A3 joins over 150 quattro models in the Audi range

YOU might have enjoyed the Indian summer we’ve experienced.

We certainly have at BCM.

But those guys in Audi HQ were miserable about it. What they wanted was rain.

And that’s what we seem to have coming in bucketfuls soon.

So the Audi Fleet Sales guys are rubbing their hands: they’ve been waiting to launch some new models.

These new Audi models are the four-wheel drive Audi A3 Saloon quattro and the four-wheel drive entry model to the Audi A6 range in both saloon and estate Avant models.

There are now over 150 four-wheel drive quattro models from which you can choose in the Audi range.

 

New Audi A3 Saloon quattro

The new Audi A3 Saloon quattro has a six-speed S tronic twin-clutch auto transmission fitted to the 1.8 TFSI model. Which should make it something of a dark horse sporting saloon too.

The new A3 1.8 TFSI quattro Saloon can reach 62mph from rest in 6.8 seconds, but has fuel economy of 42.8mpg although CO2 emissions are 152g/km – that means a 22% company car tax band for the 2013/14 tax year, rising to 23% the following year.
