SafetyThe new Audi A3 Sportback incorporates an assuring level of safety without compromising the pleasure of the drive. It protects you with an extremely strong passenger cell and the latest airbag and headrest technology. It also helps to keep you in total control, deploying Audi's highly responsive Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) the moment you need it. | |
Brake system
The high-performance brake system combines short braking distances, sensitive control and optimum cooling, for a consistently effective performance even after repeated applications. ABS antilock braking and EBD provide extra peace of mind in the event of an emergency stop. | |
| Electronic Stability Programme (ESP)
The A3's ESP provides an intelligent, swift response to difficult driving situations. The system is capable of braking individual wheels to the limits of their grip, whilst simultaneously adjusting the engine management settings, to ensure safe braking whatever the conditions. | |
|
SIDEGUARD®
In the event of a side impact, side airbags will activate, preventing occupant injury. The head-level airbag covers the entire front and rear side-window including the A-post area. | |
| Anti Slip Regulation (ASR)
ASR cuts the power to any wheel that has lost traction, so the S3 continues to accelerate safely while keeping you on the road. | |
|
Intelligent airbag system
In the event of an accident, intelligent impact sensors, including an innovative ‘up-front’ sensor, will detect the severity and nature of the impact and trigger the appropriate occupant protection systems. | |
