Not sure if this is best in the Tech Forum or here, but I just read this in the Audi A3 etron Service Training Guide:

The suspension system of the Audi A3 Sportback e-tron is based on
the suspension system of the conventional-engined Audi A3 Sportback.
2 suspension system versions are available for the
Audi A3 Sportback e-tron.
The standard suspension is standard equipment. A suspension
system with an increased ground clearance of 15 mm over the
standard suspension is employed in markets with rough roads.

This would explain why some cars i have seen that are "stock" sit noticeably lower than my car did when i first got it.
It would be great to know which markets received the "higher" suspension and if the "standard" suspension can be retrofitted (probably just springs). Please share any insights or info you have to help members who want to change the ride height of their cars.
