Available now at Prestige Motors Yakima, this elegant German-engineered compact luxury sedan combines everyday practicality with the kind of premium driving experience that's hard to find at this price point.

About This 2017 Audi A3 Sedan

The 2017 Audi A3 sits in a sweet spot that not many vehicles hit so cleanly: it's refined enough to feel genuinely luxurious, yet compact and efficient enough for daily commuting, weekend trips, and everything in between. At under 48,000 miles, this A3 is still in the earlier stages of its usable life — well past the new-car depreciation cliff, but nowhere near the higher-mileage territory where ownership costs typically rise. The clean white exterior gives it a sharp, understated look that holds up beautifully over time, and the quattro all-wheel-drive system makes it especially well-suited for driving in the Pacific Northwest.

2017 Audi A3 Performance and Engine

Under the hood sits Audi's proven 2.0L 4-Cylinder TFSI engine — a turbocharged powerplant that delivers a confident blend of performance and efficiency. The TFSI (Turbocharged Fuel Stratified Injection) technology is a hallmark of Audi's engineering, producing strong low-end torque that makes the A3 feel responsive in real-world driving conditions — whether you're merging onto I-82 or navigating surface streets through the Yakima Valley.

Paired with Audi's 6-Speed S tronic® dual-clutch automatic transmission, gear changes are smooth, fast, and intelligently managed. The S tronic system can shift in milliseconds when needed and operates seamlessly in automatic mode for relaxed daily driving. Combined with Audi's legendary quattro all-wheel-drive system, this A3 delivers traction and stability across conditions — from dry summer highways to wet autumn roads common throughout Yakima County and the surrounding region.

Audi A3 Features and Interior

Step inside the 2017 Audi A3 and you'll find a cabin that punches well above its class. Audi is known for building interiors with meticulous attention to material quality and ergonomic design, and the A3 is no exception. Expect to find a well-laid-out dashboard, quality soft-touch surfaces, and a driver-focused cockpit that makes long drives genuinely enjoyable.

Standard and commonly equipped features on 2017 Audi A3 sedans in this configuration include Audi's MMI infotainment system with a central display, Bluetooth connectivity, dual-zone automatic climate control, and power-adjustable front seats. The A3's rear seat offers more usable space than many competitors in the compact luxury segment, and the trunk provides practical storage for road trips up to Blewett Pass or day trips throughout Central Washington.

Audi A3 Reliability and Ownership

The 2017 Audi A3 has earned a solid reputation among compact luxury sedan owners, particularly among buyers who keep up with routine maintenance. The TFSI engine, when properly serviced with quality oil on schedule, is known to deliver reliable performance well into high mileage. At 47,711 miles, this A3 is at a point where the initial ownership quirks have been sorted and the vehicle has proven itself — but it still has the bulk of its reliable service life ahead.

Audi ownership does come with some things to plan for: using quality synthetic oil, staying current on DSG/S tronic transmission services, and using Audi-approved coolant and brake fluid are all part of keeping this car in top shape. Many A3 owners report strong satisfaction with long-term ownership when basic maintenance is followed. With quattro AWD, there's also the added benefit of symmetrical traction that reduces wear imbalances common on front-wheel-drive systems. This is a vehicle built to go the distance when cared for properly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2017 Audi A3 a good used buy?

Yes — the 2017 Audi A3 is widely regarded as one of the better values in the used compact luxury sedan market. It offers genuine German engineering, a refined interior, and a strong feature set at a significantly lower price point than when new. At under 48,000 miles, this example is especially compelling.

How many miles is too many for a used Audi A3?

A well-maintained Audi A3 with a documented service history can reliably reach 150,000 miles or more. At 47,711 miles, this A3 is well within the range where it should offer many years of strong, trouble-free performance with proper care.

What does quattro mean on the Audi A3?

Quattro is Audi's proprietary all-wheel-drive system, and it's one of the most respected AWD systems in the automotive world. On the A3, quattro continuously monitors and distributes power between the front and rear wheels for optimal traction and handling — especially valuable on wet, icy, or uneven road surfaces common in the Pacific Northwest and Central Washington.

What is the S tronic transmission on the Audi A3?

The S tronic is Audi's dual-clutch automatic transmission. Unlike a traditional automatic, the S tronic uses two separate clutches to pre-select the next gear, resulting in faster, smoother shifts and improved fuel efficiency. It provides the convenience of a fully automatic transmission with the responsiveness of a manual-style gearbox.

What should I check when buying a used Audi A3?

Key items to verify include the transmission service history (the S tronic benefits from regular fluid changes), engine oil change records, the condition of the quattro drivetrain components, and any software updates. A pre-purchase inspection from a qualified Audi technician is always a smart step. Ask Prestige Motors Yakima about available vehicle history for this specific A3.
