New Audi A3 Facelift Renderings

Following recent product updates in the Audi range, the A3 is next for a minor tinkling with, namely receiving a cosmetic touch-up bringing three-door and Sportback models in line with that of the new A3 Cabriolet. Accompanying these latest spy photos after a series of recent sightings are renderings chiefly featuring the Cabriolet as their muse.

Debuting in Geneva this March, the refreshed range is to feature the addition of two new power units: the new 140 hp common-rail diesel and a 1.4-litre TSI petrol unit producing 150 hp. A newly-designed single-span grille leads the way in design tweaks, while now-characteristic LED lamps from its drop-top counterpart provide a sharper, more dynamic look both front and rear. Few if any interior changes are expected, but Audi may yet surprise us with specification upgrades. Details are to emerge ahead of the car's Spring debut, so stay tuned.
