Audi Sport has intensified the RS 3's appeal. From the bold front lines and motorsport-inspired wheels to the RS front sport seats, its dynamic character is immediately apparent. The signature roar of the five-cylinder 2.5 TFSI engine, paired with an optimised chassis and new tyres, amplifies its cornering prowess. Inside, the new steering wheel and premium materials elevate the driving experience. The Audi RS 3—an exhilarating experience for the senses.
The RS 3’s latest upgrade delivers a sportier, more aggressive look. The front features a wider, flatter hexagonal Singleframe grille with a bold rhombus pattern, flanked by functional side air intakes and three apertures above the front splitter, reminiscent of the iconic Audi Sport quattro S1 Pikes Peak. The redesigned headlights with a checkered flag digital signature and three customisable daytime running light designs add to its dynamic appearance. At the rear, the RS 3 showcases motorsport-inspired elements, including vertical side reflectors, a large RS-specific diffuser with a central red reflector, and oversized oval tailpipes. The taillights feature a progressive arrow design that lights up dynamically.
Inside, you will benefit from the 12.3-inch Audi virtual cockpit plus, with its Sport, Performance, and Runway views, which remain standard, including Runway mode, which visualises speed in reverse order. Now, it also features a central rev counter displaying RPMs prominently. Additional displays show power output, torque, g-forces, acceleration, and lap times. The 10.1-inch touch display now also shows temperature ranges for coolant, brakes, engine, and transmission oil, plus the RS 3 now includes an app store for direct use on the vehicle display.
The Audi RS 3 is powered by the iconic 2.5 TFSI engine from Audi Sport, delivering 400 PS and 500 Nm of torque. It accelerates from 0-62mph in just 3.8 seconds, with a top speed of 155mph—or 174mph on Carbon Vorsprung models. This award-winning five-cylinder engine is known for its distinctive sound, thanks to its unique 1-2-4-5-3 firing sequence and the twin RS exhaust system with variable flap control.
The Audi RS 3 Sportback will start at £59,910 and the Saloon will start at £60,510 and will go on sale later this month.
