After we brought you the very first photos of the all new Audi A3/S3 Convertible back in January it is now time for a new batch of photos. This time, out skilled spy photographers snapped the A3 Convertible driving around in Germany.

As we can see the new A3/S3 Convertible looks more like a smaller A5 Convertible and that is a good thing since the current A3 Convertible is, for lack of better terminology and to put it mildly, not the prettiest duckling in its class.
While todays' A3 Convertible is based on the hatch, the new A3 Convertible will be based on the A3 sedan that is said to be unveiled at the New York Motor Show later this week.

Since we spotted the S3 Convertible version during wintertesting we know that there will be a 300 horsepower-strong version topping the line-up , unless Audi decides to bring a RS3 version of the Convertible by the time the RS3 Hatch hits the market.

Expect a debut later on this year, probably at the Frankfurt Car Show in September.

Audi

Audi AG is a German automotive manufacturer of luxury vehicles headquartered in Ingolstadt, Bavaria, Germany. A subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group, the company’s origins date back to the early 20th century and the initial enterprises (Horch and the Audiwerke) founded by engineer August Horch (1868–1951). Two other manufacturers (DKW and Wanderer) also contributed to the foundation of Auto Union in 1932. The modern Audi era began in the 1960s, when Volkswagen acquired Auto Union from Daimler-Benz, and merged it with NSU Motorenwerke in 1969.
