Audi this week announced that pricing for the all-new 2016 A3 Sportback e-tron plug-in hybrid will begin at $37,900, before incentives. The model is Audi’s first plug-in model sold in the United States. It will be in dealerships nationwide starting in October.
The 2016 plug-in A3 Sportback combines a 1.4-liter engine with a six-speed transmission with a liquid-cooled motor to produce 204 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Its 8.8 kilowatt-hour battery pack, neatly packaged to maintain maximum cargo space, provides about 30 miles of all-electric range.
While that amount of range is not as high as the upcoming 2016 Chevy Volt, which will provide more than 50 miles of EV range, it’s a notch above other competing plug-in hybrids—while offering better driving dynamics and higher levels of refinement than previously available.
