2006 Audi A3 Review: Interior

The cockpit is a paragon of applied ergonomic science, blending pleasing materials with the logical placement of controls and highly legible read-outs. To evoke the feel of driving a sports car, the seating position was placed low in relation to the high and wide console. The standard seats are okay but are too short in the thigh, and we like more lateral support, too. Consider the $1,800 Sport package a must if you want to explore the sportier side of this very sporty car. The Open Sky dual sunroof option is also very cool. Although only the front of the two glass panels opens, both have retractable sunshades for hot days.
