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

Maybe Lexus should bring in a CT sedan?

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.
