The New 2018 Audi A3 in Columbia SC

Get Acquainted with the New Audi A3 in Columbia

Whether you love the feeling of the wind in your hair and the sun on your face in a convertible-style car, or you prefer the sophistication and tradition of a sedan, the Audi A3 is a model you'll love, and we have it here at Audi Columbia.

The Audi A3 is a compact model that's available in either body style, and in either all-wheel drive (which Audi calls Quattro) or front-wheel drive. It embodies the perfect combination of style, craftsmanship, and luxury, and, best of all, it's an Audi, so you know it comes backed by a world-renowned reputation for reliability as well.

The Audi A3 Styles & Powertrains

The first Audi A3 style we have available for our customers in the Irmo and Columbia, SC area is the two-door cabriolet convertible. It comes standard with a power-operated soft cloth convertible roof, and it seats up to four people in its luxurious interior.

The second A3 option for Florence, SC drivers is the sedan. A classic four-door style with seating for five people, this version comes with a standard panoramic sunroof in lieu of the convertible top.

Regardless of which Audi A3 style appeals to you, there are multiple powertrain and drivetrain options available. Choose a front-wheel-drive A3, and your car will come equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine rated for 186 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque. Go for the Quattro, all-wheel version, and expect a similar engine, but rated for 220 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque.

Audi A3 Trim Levels & Standard Features

In addition to choosing their style and engines for the Audi A3, drivers in the Lexington, SC area also get to pick which trim level they want for their car. There are three options, and the number of features and available options increases as you move up through the levels.

The lineup includes:

Audi A3 Premium

The base model A3 starts drivers off with plenty of sought-after standard equipment, including a rearview backup camera, dual-zone automatic climate control, a premium sound system with ten speakers, heated front seats, and a power-adjustable driver's seat. Plus, it includes luxuriously comfortable leather upholstery, and advanced safety features, such as frontal collision warning and automatic emergency braking.

Audi A3 Premium Plus

The second trim in the A3 family keeps all the same features and quality as the previous model, and it adds several accents and amenities of its own. These include a power-adjustable front passenger seat, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, keyless entry and ignition, and special exterior elements, such as different bumpers and illuminated front door sills. Plus, it ramps up the safety technology, adding a blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert and parking sensors.

Audi A3 Prestige

The top Audi A3 trim spoils drivers with a ton of creature comforts and features, adding LED headlights, power-folding mirrors, a navigation system, an upgraded audio system, and even more advanced safety features, including a lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beam control.

Plus, many of the high-end features that come standard on the Premium Plus or Prestige A3 models can be ordered as options on the lower trims.
