THE SPORTBACK DESIGN IS SLEEK AND WELL
PROPORTIONED (NOT TO MENTION PRACTICAL,
CONSIDERING THE USEFUL CARGO SPACE
IT CREATES) .
THE CLEAN DESIGN OF THE REAR
DIFFUSER CLEVERLY HIDES THE
EXHAUST OUTLET, A FEATURE
EXCLUSIVE TO THE A3 e-tron. AND
A DISTINCT SYMBOL OF ITS
ULTRALOW CARBON FOOTPRINT.
While the A3 Sportback e-tron® has aspirations to help change what people think a
plug-in hybrid can do, it’s still intended to communicate our design language. The
Sportback body st yle is not only elegant, but functional. The distinctive Tornado
line runs just under the side glass, from the headlights to the leading edge of the
taillights, giving the impression of movement, even at a standstill. Along with these
more traditional Audi design elements come other e-tron-specific features. One
of the most unique is the batter y charging port that is hidden behind the Audi rings
within the Singleframe® grille. Not to be outdone, the carefully concealed exhaust
outlet sits behind the artistically designed rear diffuser. The comprehensive appeal
of the A3 e-tron is matched only by the technological achievement it represents.
