Overview

The 2023 Audi A3 is the German luxury brand’s smallest and most affordable offering, but that doesn’t mean it gives up anything in the way of luxury credentials. The A3 is a spacious, efficient small luxury sedan with rewarding, comfortable driving dynamics, and a cutting-edge, intuitive touch screen system.
The 2023 A3 is one year removed from a 2022 redesign, offering new looks but the same tight, nimble nature as its predecessor. Though it’s offered as a hatchback in other markets, the A3 is only available as a sedan in the North American market. The sedan version provides just 10.9 cubic feet of cargo space, which is small even within the segment.
The A3 is offered in two trims: Premium and Premium Plus. After only just one year, there are some trim and content changes for the 2023 model year. The Premium now comes standard with in-door leatherette with stitching, as well as full LED headlights. The Premium trim also comes equipped with leather upholstery, power-adjustable front seats, heated front seats, three-zone climate control, a panoramic sunroof, a fully digital instrument panel, and a 10.1-inch touch screen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto.
The Premium Plus trim adds a number of driver-assistance features, as well as wireless device charging. A convenience package offered on the Premium Plus adds a fully digital instrument panel (called “Audi Virtual Cockpit”), a Wi-Fi hotspot, navigation, and a Bang & Olufsen 15-speaker premium stereo system. For 2023, the Premium Plus gains fine grain birch wood inlays plus the LED Interior Lighting Plus package.
The Audi A3 is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. It makes 201 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque. Power is routed through a seven-speed S-Tronic dual-clutch transmission. Buyers can select front-wheel drive or Quattro all-wheel drive. There are more potent turbocharged four-cylinder engines found in the S3 and RS3, both of which are in covered in separate reviews. The powertrain, steering feel, and shift mapping are governed via Audi Drive Select, which has Dynamic (sport), Comfort, Auto, and Individual (custom).
The front-wheel-drive A3 returns fuel economy of 29 mpg city, 38 highway, and 32 combined. The Quattro version returns 28 mpg city, 36 highway, and 31 combined. The A3 requires premium fuel.
The Audi A3 comes standard with several driver-assistance features, including forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and lane departure warning. Features such as blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep assist, traffic-sign recognition, a head-up display, and parallel and perpendicular self-parking assist all cost extra, as does adaptive cruise control.
Base MSRP for the 2023 Audi A3 is $34,900 for the Premium trim. The Premium Plus trim starts at $38,500, and a Premium Plus with Quattro all-wheel-drive starts at $40,500. The A3 is backed by a four-year/50,000-mile powertrain warranty.

30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you a meaningful share of competitive options to compare.
What should I look for when buying a used 2023 Audi A3?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 89.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should still prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has higher mileage or incomplete service records. Focus on overall condition, signs of prior damage, and whether the asking price matches the car's equipment and wear.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2023 Audi A3?
This looks like a moderate market for selective buyers, with enough inventory and deal activity to reward careful shopping.
- Deal availability: 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 708 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices are up 3.93% year-over-year.
- Clean inventory: 89.5% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $23,404.60, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2023 Audi A3's resale value?
The current average of $25,022 sits slightly above last year's $24,075.
That suggests the model has held value reasonably well in the near term, which can help support your resale outlook if you buy at a fair price. If you keep the car in strong condition and avoid overpaying upfront, you may be better positioned when it's time to sell. The current pricing trend also signals that demand has remained steady enough to keep values from slipping sharply.
Should I buy a 2023 Audi A3 or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2023 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2023 if:
- 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 89.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices are up 3.93% year-over-year.
Consider the 2022 if:
- At $22,847, the 2022 costs less than the current year's $25,022 average.
- It offers a fresh redesign with upscale features and available Quattro all-wheel drive.
The bottom line: If you want the stronger current-market benchmark and are comfortable shopping selectively, the 2023 is the cleaner primary choice. If your priority is saving money upfront, the 2022 is the better secondary path because it comes in below the current year's average while still offering a premium compact-sedan feel.
