I have the car now for 5 months and still find it amazing. It has performed flawlessly without any glitches and the mileage has been great. The interior is so versatile and handles all my needs. I feel very safe and secure when driving and would make the same purchase again. I highly recommend the TDI to all.

Solid car. Tracks great. At 72 on cruise control gets 30 mpg. Averages between 27 and 28 mpg combined.Have been very happy with it but looking for something a little bigger, but still in a sport back, or hatchback. Same thing, different terminology.

I drive vehicles sort of roughly. Not on the brakes but I like to go fast. Compared the the Lexus I had before, the Audi A3 2013 TDI premium hatchback couldn’t handle my need for speed very well. Great gas mileage and easy to remove the cats. I’d recommend removing them as the emissions system is horrible and requires more maintenance than other cars and it’s not needed. Removing them made the car faster and fuel economy got wayyy better. She takes diesel. Typically that would make a car last much longer than a gas powered one. But I went to a little Ray’s gas station in Arkansas and they gave me bad diesel fuel. Mainly water. Wasn’t even flammable. Car was ruined. Cleaned out the system. New water pump. New fuel pump. New injectors. New glow plugs. And other things. Still couldn’t get it to run right sadly. Loved the car. I miss it. This car WILL RUN FOR A LONG TIME CONSISTENTLY. drove it from Louisiana to Canada and back. That drive actually did good for her. Cleared out the emissions and drove faster for some time after that. Great road trip car. Cuts cornered fast due to how small it is. Not very comfortable interior. Not very spacious except for the truck is decent. Easy to weave in and out of traffic with this naughty prissy girl. Overall main downsides were it being uncomfortable, on and off AC issues, and the emissions system!!
