Audi S3 | News
After the profound update that saw the new A3 wearing the hallmarks of the latest design language of the house of the four rings, it is finally time to welcome the first step of the performance range, available for both the 5-door Sportback version and for the 4-door Sedan. The new S3 maintains a sober look, which is halfway between that of the traditional engine and the upcoming and even more driver’s focused RS3, underlining the sporty character for the numerous but subtle details that characterize what will ultimately be aesthetically available with the S-line package.
Under the hood is a 2-liter 4-cylinder TFSI turbo engine with 310 horsepower and 400 Nm of torque, grounded on both axles thanks to the renowned Quattro all-wheel drive and which can manage it in a variable manner between front and rear. The gearbox is an automatic 7-speed S-tronic double clutch and sports suspension come as standard, while on request you can opt for adjustable electro-hydraulic shock absorbers. 0 to 100 kph in 4.8 seconds and arrival on our roads scheduled for the third quarter of this year.
