Facelift FL Sportback Pricing and Availability Confirmed (NZ)

Something I'm a bit concerned about is the Saloon having a smaller boot than the sportback. 315L on the saloon according to that compared to 335L on sportback. I was already annoyed going from the 370L in my old 8P A3 to the 340L on the S3 FL. The S3 saloon has 390L boot so I was expecting more than 315L. In your picture album, the mythos black RS3 saloon boot seems bigger than 315L.

I really love the practicality of the sportback hatch.
Had my back seats down and rear parcel shelf out on many occasions to haul stuff around.
Get some great comments off the lads at the tip when you pull up in an RS3 too

Yeah its just that I've had the sportback A3 and now got a sportback S3 facelift so wanted something different.

Saloon looks great so defo worth having one after 2 hatches

Too bad the US won’t be getting the Sportback at all. Interesting how VAG continues to screw over NA despite other markets being much less committed to these different trims.
