A lot less leg room when compared to the GTI, but the rear hatch space is bigger. see full Audi A3 review |

Really just a 4 place vehicle...3 across in the rear is not comfortably possible. see full Audi A3 review |

The back seat is too small for most adults. I hadn't thought about it much when I bought the car, but it became apparent. I'd take friends to lunch and they are uncomfortable.Even ifa personplans on sitting small children in the back, they grow and the useful life of the car is affected. I wish the Europeans would figure that out. see full Audi A3 review |

Due to the position of the doors it is hard to get in and out of the car. see full Audi A3 review |

There aren't many clear reasons not to buy an Audi A3. In fact, there might only be one: the front seats. These are firm, flat, and unless you're quite wide they provide absolutely no lateral support. In hard turns I relied on a knee and the steering wheel to keep from sliding off the seat. In the base A3's passenger seat there's little lumbar support and no adjuster to address this. To get a power passenger seat complete with four-way lumbar adjustment it's necessary to spend another $2,900 for the Premium Plus Package. see full Audi A3 review |
