The upgraded Audi RS 3 delivers top-tier driving dynamics and best-in-segment performance. Its sporty genes are evident in the widened body, RS sports exhaust system, and cockpit displays inspired by motorsport.

A feast for the senses: upgrade for the Audi RS 3
Audi Sport has heightened the senses of the RS 3. With the upgrade, the compact top model, which represents maximum performance, will become even sportier. This is visible at first glance: The strong lines at the front, the wheels in motorsport design, and the RS bucket seats visually enhance the dynamics, acoustically underscored by the deep-throated roar of the five-cylinder engine with its signature firing sequence. The 2.5 TFSI, combined with the optimized chassis setup and new tires, propels the RS 3 around corners even more spirited. The new lap record on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife confirms this. Drivers can feel the increased driving dynamics and the high-quality materials, which exude the highest quality and make the Audi RS 3 an experience for the senses. -
