Overview

The 2019 Audi A3, available as either a sedan or convertible, features punchy performance, sharp interior and exterior styling, and some of the latest infotainment and safety technologies.
The exterior styling of the A3 is pure Audi with its sharp, rectangular headlights and large trapezoidal grille. Audi offers two powertrain options for the A3. The base engine is a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder, sending 184 horsepower and 222 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels. If you prefer Quattro all-wheel drive (AWD), you get it with a more potent version of the turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, making 228 hp and 258 lb-ft. Both engines send power through a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. You can expect 26 mpg city, 35 highway, and 29 combined with front-wheel drive (FWD) and 22, 30, and 25 with AWD. The FWD A3 will go from 0 to 60 mph in 6.6 seconds, while the Quattro version can make the same 0-60 run in 5.4 seconds.
The A3’s interior is surprisingly minimalist. The climate controls and other toggles are made up of two thin strips, and the large circular climate control vents echo the curves of the steering wheel and shift knob. But the A3’s interior isn't spartan. It comes well equipped with a standard panoramic moonroof, leather upholstery, and heated front seats, along with 12.3 cubic feet of trunk space.
The A3 has three trims: Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige. The Premium trim comes standard with Audi’s Multi Media Interface (MMI) infotainment system and includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Premium Plus trim adds keyless entry, push-button start, full LED head- and taillights, front and rear parking sensors, 18-inch alloy wheels, and 8-way power front seats with lumbar support. The Prestige includes heated auto-dimming side mirrors, self-parking assist, 12-way power front seats, adaptive cruise control that can stop and go with traffic, and a 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen premium sound system.
Options include Audi’s Virtual Cockpit display, which replaces the conventional instrument panels with a digital screen, and a sport suspension. Standard safety features include front- and side-impact airbags and a reversing camera. The A3 is also available with active-lane assist.
The Audi A3 packs a lot of technology for the size. It's a sharp, modern package, with a minimalist interior that ergonomically blends form and function.

The A3 gets great gas mileage, the Quattro sticks it to the ground even in really bad weather and it is a zippy ride. This is a great way to start off with Audi. Definitely a drivers car.

Is the 2019 Audi A3 a good car?
Yes — the 4.5/5 user rating suggests strong owner satisfaction for this model year. That kind of feedback can be a useful signal if you want a used car that has generally pleased past owners. With 35.7% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.
Is the 2019 Audi A3 reliable?
Owners rate it 4.5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
For used buyers, that points to manageable ownership risk if you focus on well-kept examples and verify maintenance and condition carefully.
What should I look for when buying a used 2019 Audi A3?
At 62.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has had any prior damage. Focus on body condition, panel alignment, and signs of uneven wear so you can separate a clean example from one that may need extra attention.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2019 Audi A3?
This looks like a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop with some leverage if you stay patient and compare listings carefully.
- Deal availability: 35.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 333 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 11.41% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 62.8% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $15,966, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2019 Audi A3's resale value?
The current average of $16,104 sits slightly below last year's $18,177.
That softer pricing can help you buy at a more favorable entry point, but it also means future resale gains may be more limited if the market stays soft. If you plan to sell later, buying a clean, well-documented example matters because condition will play a bigger role in preserving value. Strong pricing discipline now can help you avoid overpaying for a car that may not rebound quickly.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2019 Audi A3 or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2019 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2019 if:
- 35.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 62.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 11.41% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line: If you want the best balance of price, owner satisfaction, and current market softness, the 2019 is the primary year to target. If you're especially price-sensitive, you can also compare nearby years to see whether a lower asking price outweighs the 2019's stronger market position and owner feedback.
