Until Audi unveils the A1, the A3 remains the automaker's smallest car. For 2009, several very minor modifications were brought to the body, while the interior remains the same. On the mechanical side, it is now possible to get the reputed Quattro all-wheel drive system with the 2,0-litre turbo engine, which is great news. Also available is a 3,2-litre V6 engine, again associated to the Quattro system. The finish overall is excellent. One wonders, though, if maintenance costs will be overbearing?
