Premiere: The 2012 Audi A3 in 3 Door Hatch Shape Caught Undisguised in Argentina [Spy Shots]

by Ionut Dragomir

The German company, Audi accustomed us with spectacular appearances and unexpected comebacks. Intended to recapture the glory of the original A4 (B5) that launched in 1994, the A3, shown for the first time as a sedan, features the familiar Audi family grille with LED lined headlamps. Today we can offer you these exclusive spy photos from Argentia showing us the new Audi A3 in 3 door hatch shape.

In the latest photos we can see the main design is more of an evolution then a revolution because this spied model keeps the classic lines with the same stylish flow. Still Audi keeps things interesting with agressive bumper fascias, flared fender arches.

Details regarding the new model’s powertrain are not available right now, but the 2012 A3 will be slightly larger than the current model and feature a lineup of petrol and diesel engines. There have also been rumors of hybrid and EV variants, but nothing is official as of yet.

The 2012 Audi A3 in 3 door hatch shape will be followed by both a 5 door hatch and a 4 door salon.
