The 2009 Audi A3 facelift has been revealed these days and it includes those interesting headlamps with curved "wing" elements. It's on the same lines with the new design the company embraces, such as the Audi Q5 compact SUV. With the mods in place the new A3 is longer by 2.5cm while the S3 stays the same.

On the interior, there are improvements, too. It has restyled switches and controls with aluminum details, black dials on the instrument cluster and red needles.

It looks a lot sportier to me, like a mad bull, and goodies like the S tronic 7-speed dual-clutch transmission for some models or the new Audi Magnetic Ride system are there to enforce the whole view.

2009 Audi A3 should be available this summer and the price starts from 20,350 Euro.
