In 1999, Audi expanded the scope with the entry of an entrance grade simulation (1. 6 L), a flashy edition (1. 8 Turbo with 180 PS (132 kW)) and a more strong Diesel (1. 9 TDI with pumpe-duse engineering and varying geometry turbocharger. The four-wheel-drive A3 1.8T Quattro used either the 150 hp (110 kW) and 180 PS (132 kW) and the very Haldex-based all-wheel effort structure as the Audi S3 and the new Audi TT.
