On the design front, Audi A3 Cabriolet looks identical to the A3 sedan and features a soft-top. Like the sedan, it sports bi-xenon headlamps with daytime running LEDs and LED tail lamps. Moreover, Audi says the fabric roof of the cabrio is retractable under 18 seconds at a push of a button and can be operated at a speed up to 50 km/h. Interiors will be homogeneous too featuring a pop-out 7-inch infotainment system with Audi’s MMI and a touch pad. Other features include dual-zone climate control and electrically adjustable front seats.
The A3 Cabriolet will be powered by the same 1.8-liter TFSI turbo petrol engine working in sedan version. The motor produces max power of 177 bhp and a peak torque of 280 Nm. In overseas markets, A3 cabriolet is also offered with a smaller displacement turbo petrol 1.4-liter TFSI along with 2.0-liter TDI diesel. But as it will be a niche product in Audi India’s portfolio, expect it to be solely offered with 1.8 TFSI. Transmission duties will be handled by a seven-speed S-Tronic dual clutch automatic gearbox, similar to that of A3 sedan.
