Audi RS 3 Sportback

The last generation of RS 3 was introduced in 2003 and proved to be a huge success which triggered the production of the RS 3 Sportback in 2004 and the sporty S3 in 2006 and RS3 in 2011. This year Audi will release its third generation of RS 3 and expects to take the luxury sports hatchback market by storm. The RS 3 has been redesigned and based on the new and much loved new design of the smaller A1. The rear of the car now has a sloping pillar to give a more rounded and attractive look and the new style Audi front features the well-loved Audi grille with lower air intakes each side which not only house the fog lights but help to show the high performance characteristics of the engine.

The Audi designers have created an interior that is not only modern and sporty, but is ergonomic too. In typical Audi style you will find every control, button and feature has been placed in a thoroughly thought out place, making it easy for the driver and passengers to find every control they could need. The RS 3 features an easy entry system which allows the front seats to slide far forward allowing passengers’ greater space to enter the rear of the car, which is spacious enough to comfortably accommodate three adults. The dashboard features four jet design air vents that allow for either a widespread fan of air or a more centred stream. Dependant on trim line, the steering wheel can either be three of four spoke or flat-bottomed with perforated leather, while other interior features can also include optional leather such as the seats which can be covered in Audi’s prestigious Milano leather. Other smaller touches can be covered too, such as the gear shifter and underside of the dashboard.
