Audi A3 Car Comparison Charts

Not even in the same class! How about same size, different height, with similar performance. The Audi A3 has ESP as standard. But the Qashqai is 5-star Euro NCAP rated. Obviously there's a difference in interior space and the way they drive. The Qashqai is about £1,000 cheaper at the entry level with 5-doors and looks impressive in a SUV sort of way.
