2017 Audi A3 Sedan: Full Review | Premium, Premium Plus & Prestige

[@bionicturtle]

Thank you for an *excellent* review, this was the best information I found on the 2017 Audi A3

[@CarConfections]

+Bionic Turtle Thanks so much!

[@bluehunnids887]

Right!

[@Underhills]

Many amateur reviews are way better than the professional networks. Much more detail orientated and informative. Thanks for making this, it's valuable information. Keep it up.

[@CarConfections]

+ventende We appreciate that! Thank YOU for watching!

[@danimoosakhan]

ventende lol 😂.

[@Angel-vm7oj]

For the first time in forever, I finally found an in depth review

[@CarConfections]

Haha thanks! We appreciate that!

[@swaguser8356]

They are really great cars. They drive very smoothly and are so good in rain, which was something I was worried about. Very high tech & nice

[@davidrobinson9528]

You literally have the best review I've seen on youtube. I've been waiting on someone to do an in depth view on the dashboard. Most just show what we can see for yourself. Thank you

[@AshleyChuChu]

Thank you for being one of the few people to actually show us a POV of what the space is like in the rear seats. Love this review

[@CarConfections]

+Ashley Chu Thanks Ashley! Glad it was helpful :)

[@Angel-vm7oj]

Ashley Chu lmao

[@aaronp9835]

Just got this same model. Really great ride! Have an APR stage 1 tune and it absolutely rips! Fater than an S3 for sure. Making 300hp and 320tq

[@mistafrags6113]

Urs the front wheel drive? 2.0lt? Im about to either buy one of these or the 2017 golf gti and apr stage 1 either of them.

[@elig2728]

@@mistafrags6113 bro don’t ever buy an Audi FWD whaaat????? They have the best AWD system in the world and it’s hardly a price difference

[@omaite1]

Good video and review. You captured a lot of the intricacies of the different models and only missed a few things. You sounded like you know a lot more than my salesman. I had to teach him because I had researched so much I knew most everything. I picked up my 2017 Audi A3 Quattro Prestige model at the beginning of January and really like it. I think Audi hit a home run with it. I've owned four Mercedes and none of them compare to this Audi. I enjoyed your review.

[@CarConfections]

+omaite1 Thanks, we appreciate that! And congrats on your new Audi!

[@MsAchampion]

I saw one yesterday and I fell in love with it!

[@Divdix59]

The best and Complete review you gave sir. Thank you.

[@CarConfections]

We appreciate that! Glad you liked it :)

Thanks for watching our 2017 Audi A3 review!! Be sure to let us know how you feel about the refreshed Audi A3 in the comments below!!!!!!

[@juliandebaca9029]

Car Confections the a3 is attractive

[@jaggedice894]

whats the msrp on the exact specs like the one in the video? thanks.

[@CarConfections]

$44,350. See 25:40 for the exact breakdown.

[@jaggedice894]

thanks for replying. I used to have a jetta then moved to an Accord. Does this feel the same size as a jetta sitting inside? Or smaller/larger? Thank you.

[@CarConfections]

The A3 is a little bit smaller than the Jetta but its probably not too noticeable.

[@ElmaCannonPrieto]

kid you do a hell of a job. many pros woul benefit from listening to you and stop talking crap,every now and then they should check out what others are doing and benefit from your detal unbias opinions. many thanx for this review . based on this review i am on my way to texas to pick up a 2017 A3 premium plus... can not repay you, but i will pay it forward on my own way .

[@CarConfections]

So glad to hear it was helpful to you! Congrats on your new A3!

[@mattzamora795]

Thanks for the great review! I just got one!

[@CarConfections]

Congrats on your A3!

[@joeychitwood6004]

Liquor barn is where I'm goin! These are good cars.

[@MrYeashkark]

Does the A3 have the ambient lighting and does it offer rear and steering wheel heating

[@BenClausen2567]

my favorite part about this car is that i wouldn't have to pay extra money for premium fuel

[@dzintegrate]

Ben Clausen if you cant afford to put premium in this, you probably shouldnt buy an Audi

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

Yeah keep using that mentality and make oil slash fuel companies richer while you get poorer In Europe, Audi’s home country, people use more diesel than gasoline and they don’t use premium fuel or whatever..! Maybe more “exclusive” sport cars or supercars which but hobbies for millionaires, but cars intended for the population in general, without being a small nich like supercars, need to be able to run on normal fuel I hate in fact to pay others for gasoline, I have an off road car (Jeep cj7) and I make my own fuel my other car is BMW 330d and I use normal diesel on it My dad has Ford F-150 and he also makes his own fuel in a home refinery that we built

[@justchillin7896]

was so close to financing one of these, the high insurance cost kept me from getting it man the test drive was beautiful

[@mathislane178]

how much was insurance?

[@justchillin7896]

what trim level can you get the upgraded sound system on

[@chriscipolloni4064]

When pressing Navigation it says “navigation system not installed “ ?

[@Muunbeau]

Nice map but im wondering how often I would actually use it

[@SoLA489]

Is there much difference between the ‘17 & ‘18 models?

[@cicada3312]

Love this channel.

[@eklektikTechno]

This is essentially a luxury GTI 😁

[@mikeharris7261]

Love those 18inch wheels

[@theboyfrombluesea]

Thanks for the review! What song is playing at 14:50 by the way? Anyone know?

[@CarConfections]

It's called Pisco Sour by Gunnar Olsen. Thanks for watching!

[@daviddonaire9392]

I love everything about this car, but why the gear shift stick has to be so big? The one on a4 is much more elegant

[@gaturroleon]

H! Do you know if the electronic sits have user memories?

[@CarConfections]

+LionTech! It does not have that feature unfortunately. Thanks for watching the video!

[@ericaddleson2150]

What do you think about the stock stereo system? I've heard mixed reviews on it.

[@CarConfections]

Eric Addleson Hey Eric! We've actually never heard the base sound system, so I can't comment. The one equiped on the A3 we reviewed was the upgraded Bang and Olfsen. Thanks for watching!

[@orangecrushsoda9733]

Don’t know if you’ll see this but I’m about to get my first car, would u recommend this as a first car?

[@CarConfections]

Yeah!

[@jazmintzu8965]

Im confused. Is this car you showed the premium plus?? I want to get a premium (basic one). Does it come with leather seats? Does the interior look any diff? Thanks!

[@CarConfections]

+Jazmin Tzu As shown is a premium plus, but every trim gets real leather seating. The interior will look the same minus a few things like the Virtual Cockpit display. Hope this helps!

[@jazmintzu8965]

Car Confections great! Thanks!

[@jazmintzu8965]

Btw does anything else change besides the cockpit display? Is the steering wheel the same and the small display screen? Ima go check it out today i hope i get it!

[@CarConfections]

Yes, the steering wheel is the same on both. What's missing on the Premium trim versus the Premium Plus is heated seats, auto-dimming rearview mirror, different trim pieces and standard push button start. And good luck! It's a great car!

[@RehanKhan-do4ws]

Pak Rs ? Plz

[@akshayutreja9930]

So no blind spot indicators on premium model?

[@CarConfections]

Correct. They are only standard on the Prestige trim but can be added to the middle trim (Premium Plus). Thanks for watching!

[@gaturroleon]

What is that I II III buttons?

[@CarConfections]

+LionTech! That is the Homelink universal remote. You can program it to connect to your garage door for example. Thanks for watching!

[@theoneandonlyslickrick4132]

Are these cars the A3 expensive for maintenance?

[@CarConfections]

Hi there! I don't own an Audi, but it probably depends on what you're comparing it to. If you're used to a Toyota/Honda, I'm sure the maintenance is a lot more expensive... Compared to other Germans, I'd say it's about the same cost. Hope that helps :)

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

The older Audi A3 hatch is basically a VW Golf in more expensive suit and engine So I wonder if Audi’s share same parts with VW’s which would maintenance cheaper

[@leonlai3005]

does Premium model have virtual cockpit ?

[@CarConfections]

No, the Premium cannot have virtual cockpit. It's optional on the Premium Plus or standard on the Prestige. Thanks for watching!

[@danimoosakhan]

Car Confections How much extra is charged for adding cockpit on premium plus?

[@leonlai3005]

Danial khan 3000

[@CarConfections]

Yep, Leon is correct. It's part of the Technology Package for $3,000. Thanks!

[@RandyJamesMix]

No the gauges are beautiful.

[@cassiedoan]

does the base model get apple car play ?

[@CarConfections]

+Cassie Doan The base model requires the Convenience Package ($950) to have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Hope this helps!

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

You can install that after market, may be way cheaper Worth considering ;)

[@elitestar]

maybe you can tell daddy to get the prestige model

is there going to be a wagon version of this car?
