Audi A3 Saloon
30 TFSI Sport 4dr [Tech Pack] [2025]
Audi A3 Saloon
The Audi A3 Saloon is a sleek sibling to the A3 Sportback hatchback - with both cars among the most desirable on the UK leasing market today. The affordable A3 Saloon features a large 425-litre boot, which trumps the luggage capacity on offer with the A3 Sportback. And with the A3 Saloon having enjoyed a facelift in 2024, it remains a key rival to lease cars like the BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe.

If you had seen an Audi on the road in the late 20th century, the chances are it would have been a saloon, which dominated its range for a time.
Estate cars have also been prominent in recent decades, and, of course, the surging popularity of SUVs means you can ride high in an Audi of just about any size today.
The SUV trend means that the popularity of the traditional family hatchback and saloon is diminishing. So, it was somewhat of a surprise when Audi took the former - a hatchback - and made it into the latter - a saloon.
The first-generation Audi A3 was first unveiled as a three-door hatch in 1995, before a five-door version, called the Sportback, was introduced in 2004, derived from the second-generation model.
However, when the third-generation model kicked in during 2012, Audi unveiled a saloon version, which debuted the next year, followed by a cabriolet in 2014.
The current fourth-generation A3 was ushered in during 2020, but only features the five-door ‘Sportback’ and the saloon.
Now it's had a facelift.
Does that bring it back to the front regarding the tiniest executive saloons?
We will see if we can find out.
