New Audi RS3 Sportback

From £56,675

Exterior design

With styling that looks both sporty and handsome at the same time. At the front, the wide RS bumper, distinctive honeycomb grille and the large air intakes enhance the powerful appearance​ of the RS3.

To distinguish the RS3 from the standard A3, you get a more aggressive body kit and larger alloy wheels, while at the back, large twin oval exhaust pipes tailpipes, as well as the large black honeycomb front grille and flared front wheel arches, ensure there’s no confusing this with the regular model. RS Sports suspension and RS braking system also come as standard making this latest RS model the ideal everyday sports car.

Updates on the new RS3 Sportback include flat, wedge-shaped LED headlights and LED tail lights with dynamic turn signal lights.​

Interior design

Despite the RS3 being one of the German firm’s more compact models, the feel of the materials and the overall ambiance certainly doesn’t feel that way.

All RS3s come with a brilliant 12.3 inch Audi virtual cockpit​ with RS-specific display, a 10.1-inch MMI Navigation plus infotainment system, and the all-new RS Torque splitter.

This RS3 Sportback comes with R​S sport seats as standard which are available in fine Nappa leather with RS honeycomb stitching and glossy black stitching.​​

Technology

As you’d expect from a model that sits right at the top of its model line, the RS3 certainly doesn’t lack on the technology front.

A highlight is the excellent 12.3-inch Audi Virtual Cockpit digital dials system – something Audi is well-known for – which allows you to display various screens including media, satellite navigation and tradition speed and rev counter displays, along with an RS-specific menu.
