AUDI’s new Sportback at last adds a five-door to the new A3 range, and asks only a small price premium – which is a good thing in a car that already suffers the early stages of sticker shock. For an extra $2000, you get two extra doors, a restyled body with Audi’s signature single-frame grille and an extra 20 litres of boot space. The 3.2-litre V6 version adds all-wheel drive and sharper dynamics to a car that has already defined itself as a hatchback for the sportingly inclined. With a (normally aspirated) power-weight ratio equal to Subaru’s WRX, the A3 3.2 Sportback quattro doesn’t yield readily to anybody.
