AUDI A3 a class “компакт” has been presented on the market in June, 1996.

At length of 4.15 m and a track of 2.51 m, 3-dvernyj А3 are provided with necessary comfort. The luggage carrier has capacity of 350 l, after откидывания backs of a back seat capacity of a luggage carrier increases to 1100 l.

The car is equipped by various means of safety. Pillows of safety of the driver and the forward passenger concern them, and also a lateral pillow of safety (since 1997 of release) and натяжители seat belts of forward seats. Lateral amplifiers of a body available in the doorway in addition raise passive safety.

The body is completely zinced. The ten years' guarantee of absence of corrosion is given. For optimisation of weight of the car its some elements are executed from aluminium. Amplifiers concern them in the doorway or beams in bumpers, for example.

The comfort increase at movement is promoted by a stretcher to which the forward suspension bracket fastens. The stretcher is disconnected through rubber support from a body and thanks to it демпфирует fluctuations which otherwise are transferred to salon. At models with a forward drive the back suspension bracket with levers and a connecting beam at which for more favorable use of volume screw springs and shock-absorbers are located separately from each other (at previous model is applied amortisation racks) have been applied. Thanks to it it was possible to increase width of an aperture for cargo placing in a luggage carrier.
The all-wheel drive model has a back suspension bracket with dual cross-section levers.

Engines settle down in an impellent compartment cross-section and are suspended on a so-called pendular support which reduces car vibrations in power setting on single turns.

The 4-lever independent forward suspension bracket with the established amortisation racks practically excludes influence of work of the engine on managerial process by the car. At cars with a forward drive the compound lever of a back axis that allows to place in the optimum image independently from each other screw springs and suspension bracket shock-absorbers is applied. The model with a full drive has a back suspension bracket with dual levers.

In the car the five-step manual box of a gear change (РКПП), or four- or five-step automatic transmission (АТ) can be established.
