The 2015 Audi A3’s 0–60 time is a blistering 5.4 seconds, and its small size belies the powerful punch that makes it an exciting ride.
The A3 was redesigned for 2015. With that redesign came an affordable yet super-attractive car that is luxurious, speedy, and sharp all at once. There’s not much to complain about with this zippy model — except that there is no manual version available.

Can the 2015 Audi A3 beat the competition?
The 2015 Audi A3’s 0–60 time is fast, but it doesn’t fare quite as well compared to some of the competitors in the space. A majority of the cars in the same class are quicker off the starting block, if you will, and the numbers back it up.
Here are 0–60 times for some of the Audi A3’s competitors:
BMW
2 Series: 4–6 seconds
