Buyer's guide and checklist for the 2010 Audi A3 linked above. Here is what's confirmed about the Audi a3 TDI so far: release date late 2009/early 2010, same 2.0L TDI engine used in the Jetta/Golf, FWD only with s-tronic (DSG) transmission.
The article also includes video reviews, mag reviews, a factory tour where the A3 is assembled, and a comparison with the Golf/Jetta TDI. Also included are a few comments comparing the Audi A3 TDI with the Lexus HS250h, the new small Lexus hybrid also coming out late 2009. This is because the A3 is competing not just with other entry level luxury cars like the Lexus but it's own VW/Audi family like the Golf TDI.
It's in the "8P" directory because this is the chassis name. I can't really call it A3 since mk3 Jettas had this chassis name and it could get confusing. If Audi never releases the Audi A4 TDI then I'll roll any Audi A3 pages into a future mk6 VW directory.
