Comfortable, enjoyable to drive and sufficiently spacious inside for most, the current Audi A3 Sportback has long been an impressive offering marred by an interior that felt somewhat lacklustre considering its premium billing. However, with a mid-life facelift that brought in a more generous array of standard features and a revised interior, the A3 better justifies its premium price tag.

Only available with the 45 TFSIe, the main thing you’re paying for here is a bump in power over the 40 TFSIe. Other than that, it’s all visual with flashier 18in alloy wheels, red brake calipers and black detailing.

This engine is no longer available.
