The 2022 Audi A3 and the Mercedes-Benz A-Class are both stylish sedans. What about the power under the hood?
The A3 has a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine with 201 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque. This power allows you to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.7 seconds.
Compared to the standard 188 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque in the A-Class, this ride can achieve 0 to 100 km/h in 7.2 seconds.
There are some sedans that hide in the garage when rough weather rolls in. The A3 and the A-Class are different. They come standard with all-wheel drive, so you can remain safe on the road.

While driving, you’ll want to make sure all your driving information is where you need it, so you can glance at your current driving speed, outside temperature, and fuel information with ease.
The 2022 Audi A3 is equipped with a 10.25-inch instrument cluster screen with a more expansive 12.3-inch display available as well.
In the A-Class, the standard instrument cluster screen measures seven inches, so it may be harder to view on the unpredictable road ahead. There is an option to upgrade to a 10.25-inch display, but it still falls short of the available system in the A3.
The A3 also provides a standard MMI® 10.1-inch screen in the centre console, so you can control your desired entertainment. Once again, the Mercedes-Benz falls short with a standard touchscreen that measures just seven inches.

In addition to entertainment tech, you need to know you have the proper safety features by your side. The 2022 Audi A3 and the Mercedes-Benz A-Class are built to lend a hand during long road trips, the daily commute, and quick trips to the store.
Adaptive cruise control is available with both models. Switch on this feature, and the system will automatically manage the accelerator and the brakes to keep you moving with the flow of traffic.
The A3 takes protection to the next level, though, with available Traffic sign recognition. It reads the road to detect road signs, such as Do Not Enter, speed limit, and stop signs to ensure you remain alert at all times. A comparable feature is also available found with the A-Class.
Park Assist is also available with both sedans. It scans for open spots when driving at a low speed. Once you confirm, the system will automatically steer your vehicle right into the spot.
After comparing the 2022 Audi A3 vs. Mercedes-Benz A-Class, the A3 is most likely the better choice to upgrade your Vaughan, Richmond Hill, Markham, and Brampton drives.
