Bought it for the a long commute and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.

2026 Audi A3 review
Audi A3: a class leader on the details. Illustrative review
9.2/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 Audi A3 sits near the top of its class. Standard driver-assist suite; good trunk for the footprint. Rear headroom is tight for tall passengers and road noise on coarse pavement, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $38,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Replaced an older Audi with this one. Big step up in fuel economy; I'd like a little more rear headroom.
