2016 AUDI A3 SPORTBACK E-TRON engine

Audi engineering doesn’t stop with the A3 Sportback e-tron®. It continues its innovative ways with the Audi e-tron
charging system, which is included with the vehicle.1 This elegantly designed charging station fully charges your
batter y at home in as little as 2 hours and 15 minutes using a 240-volt source.2 Taking a road trip? Just remove the
mobile portion of the charger and recharge wherever there’s an available outlet. You’ll also have the advantage
of a dedicated smartphone app that can check charging levels, precondition the batter y for optimum performance
based on climate and even start the vehicle remotely, which turns on the climate control to heat or cool the cabin,
for the ultimate in convenience.
The unique Audi charging system, including
removable mobile charger, is housed in an
attractive, lockable wall cabinet. And with the
centered position of the charging port hidden
behind the Audi four rings emblem, charging
the A3 e-tron is easy from almost anywhere
you choose to install your charging system.
If only humans could
recharge as fast.
Charging ______
240-volt charging
Charging the A3 e-tr on from a 240-volt outlet
replenishes the battery faster than using a
120-volt source, taking around 2 hours and
15 minutes to fully recharge a depleted bat -
tery. This will be the typical charging voltage
used in most cases.

120-volt charging
Found in all homes and businesses, this is
the most common type of power outlet.
Recharging the A3 e-tron from this source
takes approximately 8 hours and is ideal
for occasional or emergency charging if
240
-vol

t charging is not available.
Smartphone app

Conveniently manage a host of functions

,
from remote start (a first for Audi), to charge
timing, to battery status and range, all with a
few taps on your compatible smartphone.

We found the perfect partner.
A car this revolutionar

y requires a total
rethink of everything around it. In this case,
we partnered with Bosch® (one of the most
innovative automotive suppliers in the world)
to provide a seamless charger installation
experience. The process, which was codevel-
oped by Audi and Bosch®, makes installation
of the Audi charging system as enjoyable as
the driving experience itself.

Audi energy ______
Diminishes the footprint.
Not the range.

We didn’t set out to just revolutionize transportation—we are also pioneering a
range of ser vices for the e-tron® that defines automotive leadership for drivers who
understand a car is more than just that. Through a lower carbon footprint and a new
solar partnership, these programs usher in practicality and design with a purpose.
There’s more to the evolution of the automotive landscape than just a lot of
advanced engineering. It takes a holistic approach that is bold and effective.
That means things like helping offset carbon output, from the manufac -
turing and assembly of the A3 Sportback e-tron at the plant to the solar
partnerships that help qualified owners realize the benefits of generating
their own, clean, renewable energy.
2 It’s all meant to help make a large
impact from your roof top to half way around the world.

r ange will vary and depend on several factors, including driving and charging habits, weather and temperature, battery
age and vehicle condition. Battery capacity decreases with time and use. See owner’s manual for details.

3 The number of carbon offsets provided thr

ough the program is
based on assumptions and estimates regarding emissions occurring from the manufacture, distribution and use of the
Audi A3 e-tron through the first 50,000 miles. As such, the offsets provided may not fully account for actual carbon
emissions of the vehicle due to variations in electrical grid, source of\
electricity, vehicle maintenance and condition, actual
driving habits and behavior, and other variables.

Exclusive
sales and service
In a vehicle with this much advanced technology, you might expect a sales
or ser vice visit to be a little more complicated. In realit y, your experience
couldn’t be any simpler and straightfor ward. That’s because our engineers
made the e-tron as easy to ser vice as possible, and our innovative e-tron
sales and ser vice program, which will be available at select dealerships
nationwide (to be announced in the summer of 2015), is designed to help
simplif y ever y aspect of the purchase process and ser vice visit.
Custom charger
installation
We wanted to make the installation of the included Audi e-tron®
charging system as simple as possible for eligible A3 e-tron owners,
so we teamed with Bosch®, who will handle the installation process
(including sending a certified electrician to your home), to deliver
exactly the kind of white glove ser vice you’d expect from Audi and
the people we work with.
