AUDI has announced details of the all-new A3.

It will feature a new 2.0 TDI 184ps engine in addition to the 150ps version.

Available in front-wheel-drive or quattro form, prices range from £24,375 to £30,055 and deliveries start in September.

The 2.0 engine will get to 62mph in 7.3 seconds, with a top speed of 145mph. Despite those figures, Audi claims it will managed 68.9mpg combined and puff out just 108g/km of CO2.

It is also getting excited about its advanced LED headlights, which it says achieve “daylight levels of illumination”.

Front-wheel-drive versions are equipped as standard with a six-speed manual gearbox, and quattro variants with the six-speed S tronic twin-clutch transmission.
