New Audi A3 for Sale near Lompoc, CA

The 2025 Audi A3 is a terrific little car that many new-car shoppers might be missing out on.

For just a little more money, you can trade the 2025 Audi A3 sedan’s superior performance, nimbler handling, and better fuel economy for the Audi Q3 crossover SUV’s additional interior room, cargo space, and ride height. It’s a deal most people make; Audi sells over three times the number of Q3s that it does A3s. Perhaps changes to the refreshed 2025 A3, including the newly standard Quattro all-wheel-drive (AWD) system and additional standard features, will sway more Audi customers toward the sedan.

Verdict: Small, speedy cars like the 2025 Audi A3 are a lot fun. While you can upgrade performance with the Audi S3 or RS 3 models, the standard A3 equipped with the Black Optic Package is a delightful companion on any twisty road. Quality materials, modern tech, and practical packaging make it even better.
