Cynics will say the 2017 Audi A3 Quattro is little more than an overpriced Volkswagen GTI hatchback with a sedan body. We’d say they’re wrong. Although the A3 may share its platform and core powertrain components with VW’s hot hatch, the Audi is greater than the sum of the shared parts.Refreshed for 2017, the A3 lineup sports an updated face with a more angular grille, a new headlight design, and a more aggressive front fascia. LED taillights and a revised rear bumper round out the updated exterior. While the all-wheel-drive A3 Quattro tested here relies on the same 220-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four and six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission as before, the front-wheel-drive A3 trades last year’s 170-hp turbo 1.8-liter four-cylinder and six-speed dual-clutch automatic for a 186-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four that runs a modified version of the Miller cycle and comes paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic.
