Audi A3 Black Edition launched

This is the Audi A3 Black Edition.

The new edition is on sale in three- and five-door plus cabriolet versions. The engines available include 1.8 and 2.0-litre petrols, alongside 140bhp and 170bhp 2.0-litre diesels.

All models come in the S line trim, with the addition of xenon headlamps, LED daytime running lights, parking sensors and 18-inch alloy wheels.

The interior is finished in black and an uprated Bose stereo is fitted.

As the name suggests, black paint is standard although the car can be ordered in white at no extra cost. Metallic black, red and silver are also available as options.

Prices start from 22,215 - a 905 premium from the standard S line equivalents.
