Why does my Audi A3 have difficulty starting in cold weather?

I've noticed that my Audi A3 takes longer to start in cold weather. What could be causing this issue and how can I prevent it?

The cold weather can affect the battery's performance, causing it to have a weaker charge. This in turn can make starting the engine more difficult. To prevent this, try using a battery with a higher cold cranking amp (CCA) rating.

It could also be an issue with your starter or spark plugs. Make sure these components are in good condition and consider replacing them if necessary. Maintaining your car with regular tune-ups and check-ups can also help prevent this issue.
