Be careful, this may have changed. I bought a 2018 A3 specifically for this reason. I loved that the display could retract away on longer trips when not needed.

However, there was a small change in production mid-year where the screen could no longer retract into the dash on demand. As soon as you turn on the car, the screen rises up and stays up until the car turns off. It was billed as a safety issue to be able to switch to the backup camera faster. I ended up getting a slightly older version that had more test-drive miles on it.
