Diminishes the footprint.
Not the range.

Audi energy — sustainable power sources and a lower carbon footprint
Audi is getting serious about sustainability. Case in point: Audi energy.
3 It starts with what the car stands for, then goes
further on your behalf, so you don’t have to. We teamed with 3Degrees®, the leading carbon offset provider, to select and
support meaningful projects that reduce emissions and improve air quality for everyone.
We chose two types and locations of projects that together maximize the positive impact Audi energy and your e-tron can
make. Because Audi is a global car company and greenhouse gas emissions are not constrained by borders, the carbon offset
projects Audi energy supports reflect both a local and global focus. Audi energy includes carbon offsets to cover the vehicle’s
production, including the battery, distribution to dealers, and driving through the warranty period of 50,000 miles.

SunPower leads the charge with:
• Record-setting solar efficiency
• Industry-leading longevity
• One-stop custom design and installation
• Monthly electric bill savings
• Dedicated SunPower/Audi sales team
•
Exclusive access to new batter

y storage solution
Solar panels on par with Audi sophistication and refinement.
We deliver excellence throughout your entire Audi experience, so it should come as no surprise that we have collaborated
with a company that delivers the same level of excellence in solar power—SunPower. Now, qualified
2 Audi owners can not only
enhance the energy efficiency of their A3 e-tron, but also dramatically lower their home energy bills. Of course, fueling your
A3 e-tron straight from the sun is just the start. All qualified
2 Audi owners can receive dedicated access to the most innovative
of SunPower technology, like the 21.5% efficient X-Series Solar Panels (the highest-efficiency panels on the market4), which
produce 70 percent more energy than conventional panels,5 while offering stunning aesthetics and unmatched reliability.6 The
Audi SunPower partnership is a rare opportunity to help secure a healthier planet. Wildlife Works
This project is a part of the UN-REDD (United Nations Programme on Reducing
Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) program, designed
to protect highly threatened forests that are critical carbon sinks—natural
absorption and storage systems of carbon dioxide. Focusing on the Kasigau
community in Kenya, who previously destroyed the forest ecosystem for
survival, and using a holistic, innovative approach, Wildlife Works targets the
root cause of the problem and ties forest preservation to improved livelihoods.
US Landfill Gas
Methane, a greenhouse gas 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide, is
created as waste decomposes. Many landfills, however, are not required to
limit or capture this gas, which is instead released into the atmosphere.
Landfill Gas Capture projects either destroy the methane before it is
released or use it to make electricity. Either of these steps reduces green-
house gas emissions and preserves air quality for the health and benefit of
surrounding communities.

Exclusive
sales and service
In a vehicle with this much advanced technology, you might expect a sales
or ser vice visit to be a little more complicated. In realit y, your experience
couldn’t be any simpler and straightfor ward. That’s because our engineers
made the e-tron as easy to ser vice as possible, and our innovative e-tron
sales and ser vice program, which will be available at select dealerships
nationwide (to be announced in the summer of 2015), is designed to help
simplif y ever y aspect of the purchase process and ser vice visit.
Custom charger
installation
We wanted to make the installation of the included Audi e-tron®
charging system as simple as possible for eligible A3 e-tron owners,
so we teamed with Bosch®, who will handle the installation process
(including sending a certified electrician to your home), to deliver
exactly the kind of white glove ser vice you’d expect from Audi and
the people we work with.

1 240-volt charging wall-mounted hardware and cabinet included with the vehicle. Installation
and wiring costs ar e extra, and will vary. See your participating dealer for details.
,QIRUPDWLRQ3URYLGHGE\

While the range of ser vices available to A3 e-tron owners has widened, it doesn’t mean that our level of commitment
is spread any thinner. If any thing, you’ll feel even more catered to as an early pioneer of such an advanced vehicle.
That means white glove ser vice, from the installation at your home of the included Audi e-tron charging system
1 to the
e-tron experts at the Audi Customer Experience Center who can answer any questions you may have, to the innovative
e-tron sales and ser vice support provided by participating Audi dealerships. It’s all-encompassing, and all about you.
We want to make owning an A3 Sportback
e-tron as enjoyable as driving one, and our
wealth of services proves it.
Changes the scope.
Not personal attention.
Experience ______
Information at
your fingertips
Have a question about your A3 e-tron or the additional offerings
discussed on the previous page? We know PHE V technology is
new to many people, so the Audi Customer Experience Center,
where you’ll be able to have all your questions about your e-tron
vehicle or systems answered, will be there when you need it.

The A3 Sportback e-tron® is a pioneer within the Audi lineup, but others will follow in its footsteps. In fact,
over the next few years, that statement will manifest itself with the introduction of more e-tron models.
While some may consider this plan challenging, we know it’s a worthwhile endeavor, particularly when
you consider the increasing importance placed on energy independence and sustainabilit y. It goes without
saying that this will be a momentous shif t in the traditional transportation narrative, but some things will
never change: our dedication, passion and drive to build the most inspiring vehicles on the road.

energy and our carefully selected partners, please visit our website: audiusa.comWith more e-tron models coming down the
road, the A3 Sportback e-tron is blazing the
trail into an electrifying new automotive world.
Transforming the
wa y we drive. Not our
passion for it.
