Overview

The A3, a subcompact luxury sedan, is Audi’s entry-level model. Previously, the A3 was offered in coupe and convertible body styles, but the convertible disappears for 2020, leaving just the sedan. The 2020 A3 also gets several minor revisions.
The base engine is a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder engine, which makes 184 horsepower and 222 pound-feet of torque. A 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT) and front-wheel drive (FWD) come standard, while Audi’s quattro all-wheel-drive (AWD) system is an option. Premium Plus and Prestige trims are also available with a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder that makes 228 hp and 258 lb-ft, and quattro AWD standard. The A3 posts fuel-economy numbers of 26 mpg city, 35 highway, and 29 combined on regular fuel. With the AWD system, those figures dip to 22/30/25.
The base Titanium trim is gone for 2020, leaving the Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige trims. The Premium trim comes with HID headlights, LED daytime running lights, 17-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery, 12-way power front seats, an infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, heated front seats, and a panoramic sunroof. The Premium Plus grade adds keyless access and start, 18-inch alloy wheels, LED exterior lights, and wireless charging. Finally, the Prestige trim comes with an LCD instrument cluster, navigation, and heated power-folding side mirrors.
New for 2020 is a Final Edition package for Premium and Premium Plus trims that comes with front sport seats in either black or red, contrast stitching, “Audi” exterior welcome lighting, and a premium steering wheel with paddle shifters.
Audi addresses safety with a standard reversing camera, forward-collision warning, and automatic emergency braking. The Premium Plus and Prestige grades come with blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert and front parking sensors, while the Prestige trim gets adaptive cruise control and park steering assist. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) designated the A3 a Top Safety Pick.
The Audi A3 combines a tidy shape with premium features, modern styling, and plenty of technology. It competes with other luxury sedans like the BMW 3 Series.

What should I look for when buying a used 2020 Audi A3?
At 67.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should run a vehicle history report on any candidate you’re serious about and confirm whether prior damage was cosmetic or structural. Put inspection priority on body panels, paint consistency, alignment, and signs of uneven wear, since those can reveal how well a car was repaired and maintained. A clean-looking listing is not enough on its own; condition details matter most when you’re narrowing down used options.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 Audi A3?
This is a moderate market, so you can shop selectively without expecting a deep buyer’s market.
- Deal availability: 35.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 202 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 13.97% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 67.3% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $18,139, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2020 Audi A3's resale value?
The current average of $18,177 sits slightly below last year's $21,128.
That decline suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable entry point today. For a future seller, the recent softening means resale value may depend more heavily on condition, mileage, and documentation than on broad market momentum. If you keep the car well maintained and can show a clean history, you’ll be in a better position when it’s time to sell.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2020 Audi A3 or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2020 if:
- 35.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 67.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 13.97% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line:
If you want the strongest mix of current pricing pressure and owner satisfaction, the 2020 is the primary year to focus on. You can use the softer market to negotiate, especially if you find a clean-history example with strong condition and documentation. If you’re especially price-sensitive, it also makes sense to compare nearby years and prioritize the best-maintained listing rather than the lowest sticker price alone.
