Why lease an Audi A3 Sportback?

The A3 sets the standard the rest of the segment chases on cabin quality, refinement and tech. It's the obvious "first premium car" choice.

⚡

Plug-in option for BIK

The 40 TFSI e plug-in hybrid drops you into single-digit company-car tax bands. Around 40 miles of pure-electric range on a full charge.

📦

Practical 5-door

380-litre boot, comfortable rear seats, and one of the easiest small-Audis to live with day-to-day. Family-friendly without feeling like a family car.

The Audi A3 Sportback — a quick guide

The A3 Sportback is the 5-door hatchback version of the A3 — a step up from the regular A3 in practicality without losing the sharp styling. It's been the best-selling premium hatchback in the UK for years, and the current generation continues that run with a heavily updated interior, virtual cockpit as standard from Sport spec up, and a wider range of mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid options than ever before.

Which engine should I pick?

The TFSI 116ps is the entry petrol — a 1.5-litre four-cylinder with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed S tronic dual-clutch auto. Quiet, smooth and the cheapest way into the range. Best for low-mileage urban drivers.

The TFSI 150ps is the same 1.5-litre with more power. Noticeably quicker, more relaxed motorway gearing, and only 2-3 mpg behind the 116ps on the WLTP combined cycle. Best for mixed driving and people doing 8,000-12,000 miles per year.

The eTFSI 204ps is the plug-in hybrid. Around 40 miles of pure electric range, which covers most commutes, and the BIK rate is a fraction of the petrol versions. Best for company-car drivers and anyone with a home charger.

The TDI 150ps diesel is still on offer for high-mileage long-distance drivers — 55-60 mpg real-world is achievable. Best for 15,000+ miles per year.

Which trim should I pick?

Sport is the entry trim — bigger wheels, sports suspension, leather steering wheel, digital cockpit and 10-inch infotainment. S Line adds the body-styling kit, LED matrix headlights and sports seats. Black Edition takes S Line and replaces the chrome trim with gloss black — currently the most popular pick by some distance.

A3 Sportback business leasing

VAT-registered businesses can typically reclaim 50% of the VAT on the monthly rental, and the full rental is allowable against corporation tax. The 40 TFSI e PHEV is the strongest pick from a BIK perspective. See business A3 Sportback deals →

Audi A3 Sportback leasing FAQs

How much is an Audi A3 Sportback lease?

Audi A3 Sportback leases start from around £319 per month on a personal contract over 36 months with 5,000 miles per year and a 9-month initial payment. Higher-spec trims like S Line and Black Edition cost more; business contracts are usually 20% lower because the VAT is reclaimable.

What's the difference between the TFSI 116, TFSI 150, eTFSI 204 and TDI 150?

The TFSI 116ps is the entry petrol — a 1.5-litre four-cylinder, available manual or S tronic auto. The TFSI 150ps is the same engine tuned for more power. The eTFSI 204ps is the plug-in hybrid with around 40 miles of pure electric range and ultra-low BIK. The TDI 150ps diesel is the high-mileage long-distance choice.

What is the BIK rate on the Audi A3 Sportback?

Petrol and diesel A3 Sportback derivatives sit in the 30-32% BIK band for 2026/27 depending on CO2. The 40 TFSI e plug-in hybrid drops dramatically — around 8-12% — because of its electric-only range, which is what makes it the popular choice for business users.

Is the Audi A3 Sportback good as a family car?

Yes — it's the 5-door hatchback version of the A3, with a 380-litre boot, ISOFIX in the rear, and a back seat that comfortably fits two adults or three children. If you need more space, look at the Audi Q3 or A4 Avant instead.

Can I lease the A3 Sportback on business contract hire?

Yes — every derivative we list is available on Business Contract Hire as well as Personal Contract Hire. VAT-registered businesses can typically reclaim 50% of the VAT on the monthly rental, and the full rental is allowable against corporation tax.

Does the lease include the Audi warranty?
