Interested in a diesel-powered Audi A3? The German automaker announced that the pricing for the new 2010 A3 2.0 TDI starts at $30,775, including destination charge.
Using the same 2.0-liter turbo-diesel I-4 found in the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, the A3 2.0 TDI is available only as a front-wheel-drive model, equipped with a six-speed dual-clutch transmission. Still, the A3 TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, which is right on par with a comparable Jetta TDI.
A3 2.0 TDI models are expected to arrive within Audi dealerships this November, making it Audi's second clean-diesel model to be offered in North America.
