Audi rolls out A3 lineup at the Los Angeles auto show

There's something about German automakers and model proliferation—it seems that if there is a niche to be filled, no matter how vanishingly small, a vehicle will be devised to fill it.

By our reckoning the Ibiza managed just a shade under 100mpg. Astonishing.
