Audi is preparing an MPV derivative of the A3 Sportback that will sit on a longer version of the VW Group’s MQB platform, reports Auto Express. The British publication adds that a concept may surface next year.
The Ingolstadt-based firm had previously considered basing the MPV on the Audi A4 to result in a seven-seater vehicle, but has since decided a smaller five-seater would be more preferable. The compact exec, meanwhile, may spawn a hatchback variant called the A4 Vario to take on the BMW 3 Series GT.
If it happens, the Audi A3 MPV will have a wheelbase of about 2.78 metres – 200 mm longer than the A3 Sportback‘s. Direct rivals should include the Mercedes-Benz B-Class and the production version of the BMW Concept Active Tourer.
In rapid response to this piece of news, Theophilus Chin has served up a rendering on his website to help us visualise an Audi A3 people-carrier – he hopes “the actual MPV will be more stylish than (this).” What do you think?
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Theo, please don’t.
Looks like Kereta Mayat. Maybe all the Cemetary can buy it.
Hey stop using my name and keep bashing everything. Respect abit lah, Malaysia still can’t develop because got a retard like you
hi there
Nice name
Wow many frenzyaustin are here. I’m one of them.
Proton Exora !!!
Audi is for losers in Malaysia. Every car you see is a recon. Does Audi Malaysia even sell any cars? Except for the A6 Hybrid
If proton come out with this design.. For sure most of people will say… To dammmm boring. But if Audi… tadaaaa fuyooooo supeerrbbb dessignnn minimalize what so ever…
Honda, the power of dream; Audi, the power of ring.
THAT IS TRUE MY FRIEND!!!…
Read the content properly, its a render from Theo…not Audis design…..
If protons came out with something nice design, i will say it looks great yet improve the quality of the interior material, came with 4 airbags at least, lower the price of the import cars and good after sale service. I’ll definitely proud of it and i say i love it!
But you still will not buy it.
Although it’s an Audi, but it looks like a Audi badged Cross Touran.
Looks like a Chery Easter.. LOL
Look more like an estate a4 to me.
finally…an ugly AUDI design…
7 Seater maybe. 5 seater a little pointless… why not choose the better looking A4 Avant or a Q3/Q5?
This makes a whole lot more sense with a Seat badge on it.
this A3 7-seater could be a badge-engineered version of the next VW Touran!
Theophilus Chin, what’s the point of all these crappy renderings that you have been doing?
They’re never at all even remotely close to the actual designs, and your renderings are just ridiculously ugly at times.
Just stop it.
Sigh, people put effort give free rendering, complain pulak. I admit, the rendering is ooogly, but don’t hate on Theo la, you know the dude has talent, and he’s not charging you to see somemore, he’s doing it for fun, plus, you’re hating on a rendering that no one around here has any clue how it would look like at all… fikir dulu sebelum comment, kawan kawan sekalian..
