The A35 was a compact car sold by Austin Motor Company in the 1950s. Introduced in 1956, it replaced the highly-successful Austin A30. The name reflected the larger and more-powerful 34 hp (25 kW) A-Series straight-4 engine.

Like the A30, the A35 was offered as a 2- or 4-door saloon or 2-door "Countryman" estate/van. The latter model continued in production through 1968. A rare pickup truck version was also produced in 1956, with just 475 sold.

The A35 passenger cars were replaced by the A40 Farina models in 1959. 130,000 saloons and 151,000 wagons were produced.
