2006 Audi A3 Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	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
2007	4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD	Due to the position of the doors it is hard to get in and out of the car. see full Audi A3 review
2006	4dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	The Subaru has a more comfortable and roomy back seat, with easier ingress/egress. see full Audi A3 review
