About the A3 Cabriolet 1.8 TFSI quattro 180

The 2013 Audi A3 Cabriolet 1.8 TFSI quattro 180 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged roadster of 1,615 kg with 177 bhp, which works out at 110 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.30 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 4,350th quickest to 60 mph, and the 531st quickest of the 1320 Audis here. Its 90.1 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Each one can be raced against the Audi A3 Cabriolet 1.8 TFSI quattro 180 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Audi A3 Cabriolet 1.8 TFSI quattro 180 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
