One kind of sausage just different lengths. The A3 sedan will be the shortest one.

Maybe Lexus should bring in a CT sedan?

So they basically took the 1995 A4 out the attic, dusted it off, change the name and "viola"...profit

The car keep getting bigger so they ned to create these models to fill the gap that the larger new version has created. Not a bad move. I wonder how the other manufacturers will respond

They already are! I read somewhere recently that they will introduce some 15 models based on its upcoming FWD small car. And MB is whoring the hell out of its A-class line.
