The good deal Audi A3 Sportback plug-in hybrid for €390 with no down payment

Times are changing, electrification is making its way, and manufacturers are adapting quickly. Audi proves this with a very aggressive offer.

Audi is therefore offering a plug-in hybrid A3 Sportback for only €390 per month, with no down payment, starting in June. This is unprecedented for this level of trim and equipment.

Until the end of June 2025, Audi is offering a long-term lease (LLD) for a five-door A3 (Sportback body) with a 40 TFSI e hybrid engine, automatic dual-clutch S Tronic transmission, and a Design aesthetics package. This offer also includes two additional years of warranty, a replacement vehicle, assistance, and metallic paint. Outside, there are 18-inch wheels and roof rails as standard.

The formula is simple: 37 monthly payments of €390, totaling €14,430 over three years, for a mileage of 30,000 km. For comparison, the list price of this configuration, with the options included, is €47,900 including tax. In short, you can drive a new Audi for about 30% of its new price. A great deal, especially considering that the maintenance, often extra, is included here.

With such a low price, one might think of a base version lacking charm. This is not the case. Thanks to the Design package, the look is refined, and the equipment remains high-end. Audi has not cut costs to the point of sacrificing image or comfort.

A smart look/engine combination

On the motorization side, we have a turbocharged 3-cylinder engine that delivers a combined 204 hp, enough to go from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 225 km/h. A smooth and pleasant engine paired with the S Tronic transmission that ensures more than adequate performance. Nothing spectacular, but quite sufficient for daily use. Most importantly, this engine excels in its efficiency: only 5 L/100 km in mixed cycle, with 10 g/km of CO₂. The result is real fuel savings and a reduced ecological footprint. An intelligent solution for both the wallet and the planet.

This 37-month contract takes you through to 2028, an interesting deadline. By then, electric cars will have advanced further in terms of range and infrastructure. It will probably be the right time to consider transitioning to pure electric, without the current compromises.

In the meantime, this hybrid A3 represents an ideal transitional solution: well-equipped, well-powered, low-polluting, and above all, offered at an extremely competitive price. In short, a great way to drive premium without breaking the bank.
