The A3 is Audi’s mid-sized hatchback and a rival to cars like the Volkswagen Golf, BMW 1 Series and Mercedes-Benz A-Class. It aims to bring Audi’s premium image to a smaller car than the German brand’s traditional larger offerings, and comes in a range of styles from the everyday cruiser to the fire-breathing hot hatch.
Although based on the underpinnings of the Volkswagen Golf mk5, the Audi A3 mk2 sits on a rung above, thanks to its low-key yet classy exterior and handsome interior design, which is renowned for its high quality cabin materials. It features a broad range of refined, efficient petrol and diesel engines and a brace of sporty options too. As well as hatchback body styles, the Audi A3 mk2 is also available as a chic convertible.
The Audi TT is a popular choice for those wanting a high-quality sports car that’s gratifying to drive, effortless to live with and not overly expensive to run. Enthusiasts may find the TT not as compelling or as engaging as a Porsche 718 Cayman or Alpine A110, but the Audi’s blend of usability, options and accessibility will prove preferable to many.
With the same thunderous performance and everyday usability as the previous model but a more engaging chassis, the latest Audi RS6 Avant is arguably the best high-performance estate car on sale today. Gone is the previous model’s subtly menacing exterior design, this new version’s cartoonishly large wheels and aggressive bodywork shouting far more loudly about the power and performance that lurk within.
The Audi Q7 is one of the very best large SUVs, whether you choose to buy a new or used example. It was a class leader when it arrived in 2015, and updates during the big seven-seater's time on sale have only underlined its broad capabilities. Good to drive, comfortable to travel in, hugely practical and surprisingly efficient, the Q7 is a firm CarGurus favourite.
