S3 Sportback Exterior style features S3 Sportback

Open sky system

More light with the open sky system in the Audi A3 Sportback

The optional panoramic glass sunroof, with an area of more than half a square meter, lets in twice as much daylight as a conventional sunroof. The roof is of glazed appearance all the way from the windscreen to the rear window, emphasising the sporty looks of the Audi S3 Sportback.

The open sky system gives you and your passengers a new, heightened sense of spaciousness. The large glass roof lets more light into the car, and as much fresh air as is desired. The divided glass panel allows you to open it in various ways. If the front panel is raised at the rear, the passenger compartment is supplied with draught-free fresh air even when the car is travelling at high speeds. The comfort position involves sliding the roof partly to the rear. And when opened fully and slid back, the open sky system affords new perspectives on the outside world. You operate it simply by pressing a switch.

If you want comfortable ventilation but no direct sunlight, a blind gives you the right amount of shade.
