Audi A3 data analysis
How Audi A3 EPA electric range varies
Across 4 configurations recorded for the 2016 through 2018 Audi A3, EPA electric range runs from 380 miles to 430 miles. The strongest figure belongs to the 2016 Audi A3 at 430 miles, and the weakest to the 2017 car at 380 miles — a spread of 13%. The narrow spread means any year of the Audi A3 in this table behaves much like the others, so you can shop on price, condition and mileage rather than chasing a particular model year.
What changed for 2018
Average EPA electric range for the 2018 Audi A3 is 400 miles, against 380 miles for the 2017 car — it rose by 20 miles. That is a real improvement, and it is the kind of change worth paying the newer-year premium for if this figure drives your decision.
How to read this Audi A3 data
This page lists every 2016 through 2018 Audi A3 record we hold for this measurement — 4 rows in total, one per configuration and model year rather than a single headline figure. Figures are published as the source agency records them: we do not round, average or interpolate missing years, and a year that is absent from the table is a year with no published measurement rather than a zero. Where a manufacturer offered several drivetrains or body styles in the same year, each appears on its own row, because those variants rarely share the same numbers.
Where these Audi A3 figures come from
Every value on this page is loaded from federal open data — EPA fuel economy submissions, NHTSA vehicle and crash-test records, and manufacturer specification filings — rather than dealer listings or copied editorial content. The Audi A3 record refreshes as the agencies publish, which typically means new model-year rows appear in the autumn and crash-test results follow through the model year as vehicles are tested. Because certification data is filed per configuration, treat any single headline number for this vehicle with caution: the figure that applies to a specific car depends on its engine, drivetrain, body style and model year, all of which are listed separately above. If a number here disagrees with a brochure, the brochure is usually quoting the best available configuration rather than the one being sold.
