For 2016 Audi A3 Convertible, we have the Curt hitch # C11399. This is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver that allows you to carry up to 2 bikes on a carrier like the popular Thule Camber # TH9058. You would also need the support strap # 18050 anytime you are using a bike rack or cargo carrier with the Curt hitch.

We also have trunk racks that will fir your 2016 Audi 3. The Saris Bones Trunk Rack part # SA801BL is confirmed as a fit for your vehicle and would work well. I personally, would get the hitch if it were me.

I attached a link to the hitch fits for your vehicle. If you click the link it will always have our most up to date fit info. So if a hitch does come out for the convertible models it will be listed there.

If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
