➤ If you want to ask which car dreams of the young people, it must be Audi A3.
After the previous generation of Audi A3 introduces domestic production, it takes only about 200,000 to the young people. The price can buy a mainstream luxury brand of cars.
While it is a little small, the performance of all aspects is in line with the level of the luxury brand entrance level, and has not smashed his signboard. It is still a good thing in the same level. Time.
Of course, the opponent is not stupid, seeing the A3 is so popular in the Chinese market, and very fast The trutum 1 series of the UKL platform and the level A extended the wheelbase.
Yes, these two are special vehicles, expressing BMW and Mercedes Deep understanding of China’s entry-level luxury car market.
Although the opponent arrives, A3 is in the case of product strength or market sales They still keep the situation that does not lose.
However, it is obvious that it is not a target, the target is to win, so when A3 is replaced, Audi There is also more ideas. At the past Saturday (January 23), the new generation of Audi A3 announced the listing, the hatchback price is 203,100 yuan to 243,200 yuan, the sedan version is 209,600 yuan to 249,700 yuan.
“L” and “no L”
That is said that the current luxury brand model is the highest in the process of the process of the process, it is definitely not exacerbated, because each brand is specific to each model It is divergent on this issue that is long or not extended.
For example, the Audi Q5 of this generation came to China to become Q5L, Mercedes-Benz saw, directly I did a GLC L out before the medium term change, and the BMW did not move, X3 is a global unified quote x3.
However, the low-level BMW X1 is extended. It should have maintained the original specifications from the Mercedes-Benz GLA and the Audi Q3 of X1.
Interestingly, Q3 his brother Q2, the Chinese version is longer, called Q2L.
Of course, these are all SUV models, and the car products, everyone is more inclined to extend, just like Audi A3 this size, some contradictions.
After all, entry-level luxury cars did not sell space in space, but the space is too small. It’s really a bit can’t be taken. Those who shouted for the original taste of the original A3, what is the main situation of this help?

Good to do.
A3 has an advantage, and the opponent is only a domestic sedan version, and A3 is a hatchback, a new generation A3Just use this advantage, lengthen the wheelbase of the sedan version, the hatchback version is consistent with overseas versions. 
It was originally “L” or “not L” problem, and now is “L” and “not L” solution, two all its beauty.
Specifically, the sedan version of the A3L wheelbase is less than 50 mm, reaching 2680 mm, although compared to domestic Mercedes The 2789mm after the Length of the A-level lengthened is more than 10 cm.
However, for a compact car, the large-scale level A level is indeed a bit pervert, and the domestic A level is able to show the extension traces in the back door, but the Audi A3L will not.
Even than the unopened A3 sedan version of overseas, domestic A3L seems to be more coordinated.

Glossard’s utmost merit?
China A3L looks compared to overseas The extended A3 sedan version is more coordinated, mainly in the new design.
Many cars are in replacement, the smaller the eyes, but the new A3 has a reverse operation, and the headlights are significantly higher than the previous generation. The corners are more prominent. 
As for the taillight, the new A3 reached an achievement, which is to make the hatchback and sedan version of the taillights. Shared.
It is not easy to do this, because the biggest difference between the hatchback and the sedan version is on the tail, let the exactly the same taillights can look good on the hatchback and the sedan version. Design constantly fine-tuning,Guide the needs of the two body forms.
The benefits of achieving sharing are naturally optimized. You see Tesla Model Y, who said before, as SUV actually used so many parts and model 3, which is the ultimate control. Cost strategy.
If the previous generation A3 is not much in terms of design, it is a simple style, then new One generation is added more elements and draws the image of the whole vehicle more refined.
Extended 50mm wheelbase happens to make the new elements not too compact and crowded, especially the front and rear wheel arch positions, the new A3 has specially created the effect, it seems like a small muscle male.
Like other new generation of Audi products, the new A3 car system also provides two kinds of appearance kits, but only Whether it is a dynamic kit or an elevator, it is a compact car for young people in A3. After all, it is a compact car suitable for young people.

Active cars
That said that Audi’s carriage, on the design of the high-end models of A8, A7, A6, three large screens (up and down two screens of dashboard + central control) are large It is a focus addition.
In addition to the screen, the interaction of the interior is not a few, and this time it looks a little aesthetic and tired today, there is still some power.
In the case of the new A3, Audi shows the skills of the luxury brand.
First, as the entry model of A3, the stack of the screen is not a good idea, one is cost, two is the medium-sized central control, if it is stuffed into two big screens, It seems more messy crowded.
We are very happy to see in the car in the new A3, the screen is not the protagonist, all kinds of ribs The design of the line harbor is the main tone. All parts create full three-dimensional feeling, plus the outline of matte silver ornaments, the atmosphere of the entire car is not monotonous.
It is worthy of praise, Audi this time does not integrate all the function buttons in central control unique In the screen, a considerable number of entity buttons are retained.
The audio control area has spent the mind, using a circular button to control multiple operations, where the volume control uses the form of sliding rotation circle, if you have used IPOD, you should find a little nostalgic here.
gear It is the form of the front and rear, which is also a popular style that the Volkswagen Group includes Porsche brand, there is a saying, the Audi A3’s gear rod is considered more exquisite in the mass group.
Of course, based on the type of model positioning, the central control of Audi A3 does not have a cortical which can be seen everywhere. Package, only the matching of various materials includes the blessing of design details, so that the atmosphere of the whole car is still in line with our requirements for entry-level luxury cars. 
As for space performance, twoCritical taste A3 despite the first-generation wheelbase, after internal space optimization, 175cm Roujun can get a boxing lap space in the back row, the head space is the advantage project of the hatchback, for the four fingers .
Here, the head space is the advantageous project of the hatchback, mainly because the last generation A3 sedan version The space is quite inferior than the hatchback, and when the rut is sitting in the head.
What is the new A3 sedan version of the new A3 sedan?
Since the wheelbase is 5 cm, the latter space has reached around the three fingers, and the head space can also have two fingers.
Although space is not a selling point of A3, the new A3 is an optimized hatchback or further length of the wheelbase. The sedan and space performance have reached the qualified line.
In fact, this is still quite important. After all, the young man is still to convince the elder.
Where is the problem of the new A3?
Overall, the new A3 is In this regard, although there are not many surprises, it is obvious that the improvement of the experience is obvious. The mainstream model of the luxury brand will pinch the changed scale when it is replaced.
However, this does not mean that the new A3 has no problem, in fact, there are two problems.
First, the new A3 still uses the previous generation of power assembly, 1.4TSI + 7 speed double clutch, output parameters have not changed, but the official announcedThe acceleration time has fallen to 9 seconds and is a bit disappointing.
In fact, the Volkswagen has a new engine overseas – 1.5TSI EVO, but it takes a period of time to introduce the Chinese market.
Another problem, in fact, not only the problem of A3, but a lot of Audi’s models exist, then Is the price voice.
So since the A3 in exchange, it is not weak to the opponent, but it still uses a lower and more favorable price to obtain market share. 
The new generation A3 is from the price. Whether the hatchback or sedan version has increased the price threshold to more than 200,000 yuan. It is a good thing for this luxury brand. After all, the luxury brand should not be a flavor. Cost export.
And the price threshold is not intended to decline the cost performance, because the new generation of A3 allocation is generally compared to the previous generation, from the top purchase of the minimum entry, the luxury car will often appear The configuration can only be used, and this will now happen.
So finally determined whether a new generation of A3 successfully, may be no longer a simple sales number, but if it guarantees a certain sales, the price of the price will be rested, and the price of the price is .
