Pros & Cons
What we love
✓The A3 Saloon 35 TFSI Sport offers the same comprehensive standard equipment as its Sportback sibling — navigation, wireless charging, heated seats, 3-zone climate — but adds a traditional notchback body with a 425 L boot (45 L more than the Sportback hatch), a lower Cd of 0.27 (vs 0.29), and a 4 mph higher top speed of 144 mph at the same £32,600 entry point. The Saloon profile is more formal and executive in appearance, suiting business users and those who prioritise boot space over the Sportback's split-fold practicality.
✓The Saloon's rear-seat headroom is slightly less than the Sportback due to the sloping roofline, but legroom is comparable thanks to the shared 2,618 mm wheelbase. With better aerodynamics and slightly better fuel economy (54.3 mpg WLTP vs Sportback's 53.3 mpg), the Saloon makes a compelling case for the family or company-car buyer.
Considerations
✕Cloth seats standard — part-leather requires S line or Black Edition
✕No LED rear with dynamic indicators — standard from S line
✕No sport suspension — S line/Black Edition only
✕No privacy glass — standard from S line
✕Slightly less rear headroom than Sportback due to saloon roofline
✕Reversing camera optional only (Tech Pack £1,495)
