Audi having doubled down on its compact car with its recent release in Europe and giving it a more premium interior, advanced technology, razor-sharp looks and a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with all-wheel drive. This is certainly forecasting the release of the 4th generation to North America for 2021, can we hope for a return of the Sportback variation?

America having missed out on the Sportback body style since its last introduction in 2005 as a 2006 model and missed at the introduction of the 3rd generation in 2014. The 4th generation would be a great opportunity to reintroduce the Sportback body style into the North American market! There is a market void of AWD hatchbacks much less from a premium brand. Why exclude potential buyers in a market of increasing competition. With a recent re-invigoration of hatchbacks into the market by mainstream manufactures including Toyota and Honda with the New Corolla and Civic. While Volkwagen and Mazda having maintained hatchback for a longer period of time there is certainly a group of buyers?

Audi having recently announced the introduction of the 2021 RS6 Avant for American buyers this is certainly an excellent start but there needs to be an alternate for early career professionals to join the Audi family. I could not agree more that Sportbacks are gorgeous vehicles, which embodies many of the best things about Audi – style, sophistication, sportiness. Maybe an official petition for the “Reintroduction of the A3, S3 RS3 Sportback” to the States would be the answer? Audi is listening "Our Product Planning team continuously evaluates customer demand, and regularly updates the available line up to ensure that we have the products our clients want here in the United States."
