Spotlight on the 2015 Audi A3 Cabriolet and Audi S3: Testing Them This Week
This week we're off to Monte Carlo, Monaco, to test drive not just the upcoming 2015 Audi A3 cabriolet, but also its high-powered cousin, the 2015 Audi S3 sedan. 2015 marks the first model year that this sportiest version of the German brand's entry-level sedan will make it to Canadian shores.
Dropping the hatchback-only approach that had previously defined the A3 in North America, the A3 cabriolet and the S3 sedan open up the automaker to a new cohort of customers. The S3, specifically, is aimed at the same group of buyers who are considering the equally-new Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG. It offers a six-speed, dual-clutch automated manual transmission, a turbocharged power plant, and an affordable starting price.
