Car Tech - 2015 Audi A3 Cabriolet 1.8 TFSI

Review the full review: www.cnet.com/pr...
1 cloth top and 200 fewer CCs can change a car.

These reviews need to be longer and more frequent plz

APR Stage 1 tune gets you to about 245hp and 300lb ft tq. Makes for a much snappier engine! My average MPG since new is 32 MPG mixed driving. Quite respectable! FWD layout is actually more fun to drive than the AWD (in the same way that a GTI is more tossable than a Golf R). Michelin PS4S tires and you are good to go! Oh, and knock on wood, my 2015 has been super reliable!

Cant get enough of Cooley, glad hes back! Awesome, if somewhat short, review! \m/ 👍

[@jwinaz]

Short, sweet and hard to beat, I enjoyed your presentation.

[@VIRTUALBOYKP]

Nice colors!

[@ny1fanta]

thats a beautiful little audi

[@gedaman]

I love that plum color!

[@nmkadhim]

Great review as always

[@Narrowcros]

If you want an Audi you gotta get the all wheel drive, it make a big diffrence in the way they drive and as Cooley noted its makes a diffrence with how the gearbox feels as well

[@A7medMido28]

5:07 Brian, you really dwarfed out the car there. it looked so small next you. :D

[@lexusfan100]

lets do the merc-maybach!!

[@PinkyLadybird]

It always baffles me how you can NOT talk about boot space in a convertible review... Does this one still have the divided rear seats?

[@rogerl7533]

I would be grateful if someone could tell me what this specific Audi exterior color is called. Thank you

[@sharkey1983]

What makes me watches video is Cooley.. I don't really care what he's talking about, he's doing it COOL-ey LOLOLOL

[@reyzuna]

some electric guys said that they can't just put usb port their to play instant music on your iphone or other smartphones because it will produce some sort of engine sound when accelerating, so they keep on doing that kind of port with cable.. but not sure if this is true..

[@phgamer4393]

lol it could be that but in all seriousness that means their tolerances aren't that good and they dont have modules that clean up the power. If they weren't cheap and looking to make a buck off the cable that problem could go away. Its a business problem not an engineering one

[@kenzoteves4419]

I saw one on the road today and my initial thought : "that car looks ugly weird". I don't usually have such initial assumptions with an Audi.

[@thefinancialneurologist]

Please please please upload 1080p videos, watching 720p60 on a 1080p monitor is blurry. Also there is pretty visible interlacing. In a day and age where our phones can shoot 4K video and my 3 year old phone can shoot 1080p, I would want my favorite tech show on cars and general tech to display at standard Full HD without interlacing. Thanks!

[@BYSMA4th]

Now, I don't want to complain about this car because I really like the concept of a compact luxury car...especially with a soft top. However, something about the way this car looks reminds me of a Volkswagen Eos... It wouldn't be a huge issue in itself, but the Eos was already a good car. I feel like Audi should distance itself stylistically from VW, sometimes I look at the A3/A4 and see a VW Passat....that's not good.

[@emantabrizi]

No, that's not good. You should probably see an eye doctor.

[@ericiscoolllll]

i agree with you, i saw the price of the car and i felt confused because the starting price, and the size are both roughly the same as the eos. I guess you would just buy this one for the name brand

[@unclewilliamderek]

just buy a TT lol, the backseat is for the amputated

[@ZoidsXtwonine]

40 grand?

[@FejjNagaf]

At $40k plus, it's way overpriced. Skip it. Instead, pick up a c5 convertible and a fiesta st.

[@IsaacDavis69]

Looks like a vw eos

[@gibraltarik]

$40,000 for a re-badged Volkswagen Eos?!?

[@symawd]

Nothing about this is shared with the Eos. It's much more related to the Golf.

[@hagbard72]

Looks like a Mazda interior.

[@davisflyer]

Mazda looks like Audi

[@MeowJW]

no AWD? no thanks.

[@fhm4]

Under 301+ club

[@VIRTUALBOYKP]

You are now very cool and everybody will love you.

[@fhm4]

***** I'm sorry you're not cool with us and nobody loves you.

[@VIRTUALBOYKP]

I dont need to state on the internet the achiewments I accomplish to make me feel good. Kristoffer
