The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11399 will fit your 2020 Audi A3. I recommend using the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH64ZR with Towing Kit # SH34ZR for your 2020 Audi A3 sedan. This has a removable 2" receiver for hitch mounted accessories as well as a 2" ball mount for towing a small trailer. It also includes wiring for a 4-way flat connector. view full answer...
The rating of 9 is for difficulty of installation. The installation of this hitch requires temporary removal of the bumper and trimming of the bumper fascia.
The installation of the CURT Trailer Hitch # 11192, also requires removal of the metal bumper beam, the tail light assembly, the spare tire, and any other contents in the trunk. The exhaust and heat shields may also need to be removed temporarily. Installation of the hitch also requires drilling into the trunk pan.

I recommend the Curt # C11399 trailer hitch for your 2019 Audi A3 (non e-tron). This is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver.

The stabilizing strap is required by Curt and will help keep your bike rack from moving around too much during travel. I have attached the installation instructions for you to check out.
Since this is a Class I trailer hitch, you are limited to carrying 2 bikes. If you... view full answer...
Hands down my favorite trunk mount rack is the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634 which fits your 2012 Audi A3 when you place the base pad 1" above the bumper and place the hub setting at 5. When I've seen review of people not liking this rack their complaint is usually about the difficulty of install but this only uses 4 straps as opposed to 6 straps that other racks use and the way the arms and body adjusts is much easier than other trunk mount racks I've messed with.

The hitch I suggest for your 2018 Audi A3 is the Curt # C11399. I recommend this Class I hitch because it easily bolts on with included hardware (no drilling except you will need to enlarge some existing holes) and because its main cross tube will be mostly hidden behind your rear bumper fascia for a clean look. Installation instructions are linked for you.
Since you have fairly heavy e-bikes you'll need a special bike rack made for that extra weight. The rack that I recommend is the industry-leading... view full answer...

We do have trailer hitch receivers to fit your 2016 Audi A3 but none from Hidden Hitch. Hidden Hitch is actually a discontinued brand name that was owned by Horizon Global (formerly Cequent), which is the same company that owns Draw-Tite. A lot of Draw-Tite hitches we carry for older vehicles are just copies of the old Hidden Hitches that were once available for the same vehicle. We don't currently have a Draw-Tite hitch for your Audi.
However, we do have a very similar Curt hitch... view full answer...

According to Thule, the OutWay 3 Bike model, part # TH56BV is indeed a fit for your Audi A3 5 door hatchback.
The OutWay features ratcheting hooks that attach the rack to the car, instead of the difficult to use straps and buckles used by other racks. One of the ratchets is lockable, which secures the rack to the vehicle. The rack itself features a locking cable to secure the bikes to the rack.
