With the Audi A3 Cabriolet, we’ve taken all the qualities you’d associate
with Audi – stunning design, sporty looks and progressive styling –
and brought them one step further. From the sweeping, expressive
lines of the body to the smooth silhouette of the canvas hood, it’s got
all the dynamic character and appeal of a coupé. And even more
impressively, we’ve combined this with the everyday practicality of
increased luggage capacity and space for four people.
Stylish and practical, the A3 Cabriolet’s dynamic shape and alloy
wheels make an immediate impact. And with a Z-fold hood that
opens in just 9 seconds, it doesn’t take much longer for this car
to impress you with its ever-changing profile. In fact, you can lower
its Sport hood with just the touch of a button, at speeds of up to
19mph. The model is available now with a choice of five engines,
including the turbocharged 2.0 TFSI and the new efficient 1.6 TDI
with common-rail injection technology. What’s more, along with
considerable power you can enjoy impressive control, thanks to a
choice of manual transmissions or the revolutionary Audi S tronic
transmissions. And no matter which options you select, from styling
to multimedia, you can look forward to a comprehensive range of
equipment to make your driving experience complete.

Petrol Diesel
We introduced TDI to the roads in 1989, marking a departure from the noisy, fuel-thirsty
diesel engines of the past. And since then, we've continuously refined it, recently
developing common-rail technology for even more efficiency and power. Under this
system, a series of piezo injectors use electrical charge to precisely control the amount
of fuel injected into the engine. As well as reducing noise, this allows combustion to
happen at a lower temperature, with less oxygen, which cuts down emissions. So not
only does common-rail technology help to protect the environment, it also enables us
to future-proof our cars.
The A3 Cabriolet includes an impressive turbocharged direct-injection TFSI engine.
TFSI is a unique Audi innovation, combining turbo-charging with the FSI technology
originally developed for the Le Mans 24-hour endurance race to deliver increased power
and torque, as well as enhanced fuel efficiency. Precisely the right amount of fuel and
air are injected directly into the combustion chambers, ‘unthrottling’ the engine and
enabling it to ‘breathe’ more easily. At the same time, electronics monitor the engine
load and adjust the injection process. The result – reduced heat-loss and increased
output, with around a 15% reduction in fuel consumption and significantly lower exhaust
emissions. Ideal for someone who’s looking for an uncompromising, exhilarating drive.

Transmission
Audi offers a variety of different transmission options to
suit your requirements and driving style. In addition to the
classic manual gearbox are two innovative, semi-automatic
transmission options. To help you come to an informed
decision, each of these is described in detail opposite.
The revolutionary S tronic gearbox combines the agility
and responsiveness of a conventional 6-speed manual
gearbox with the convenience and smooth, uninterrupted
power of an automatic transmission. The technical basis
of the S tronic gearbox is the double clutch. This consists
of two lubricated plates with hydraulically-regulated
contact pressure. One engages the odd-numbered gears,
the other the even-numbered, enabling gear-shifts to be
made in a fraction of a second, with no disruption to the
power flow. Depending on how the mood takes you, you
can either allow gear-changes to take place automatically
or, for a sportier driving style, operate the S tronic system
using the gear lever or steering wheel shift-paddles.
The choice is yours.
The 1.8 TFSI model is available with the 7-gear version
of our highly-acclaimed S tronic gearbox. The extra gear,
along with a dry-clutch set-up, results in improved fuel
economy and lower CO
2 emissions. As with the 6-speed
S tronic gearbox, this gear system can be operated in fully
automatic mode, or using the gear lever or steering wheel
gear-change controls for an even more engaging drive.
