High power, understated, with ample features and a high degree of everyday practicality – all of these strengths come together in the Audi S3 Sedan with quattro® permanent all-wheel drive.
The Audi S3 Sedan offers superior performance and groundbreaking efficiency. Its 2.0 TFSI engine produces 210 kW (285 hp) and 380 Nm (280.3 lb-ft) of torque. The high-performance four-cylinder unit combines cutting-edge technologies – dual injection into the combustion chambers and into the induction manifold, integration of the exhaust manifold in the cylinder head, the Audi valvelift system and the rotary valve module for the thermal management system.
In interaction with the six-speed dual clutch S tronic, the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) takes just 4.9 seconds.
The sonorous-sounding four-cylinder turbocharged engine in the Audi S3 Sedan gives it a combined fuel consumption of just 6.9 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres (34.1 US
A key factor in the dynamic performance of the premium compact model is its lightweight construction. The Audi S3 Sedan has an unladen weight of just 1,430 kilograms (3,152.6 lb) – by far a best figure in its class.
The S sport suspension lowers the vehicle body by 25 millimetres (1.0 in). Large brakes are mounted behind the 18-inch wheels. Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC) intervenes with fine sensitivity. The new progressive steering with power assist varies the steering ratio. It is somewhat more indirect around the center position and very direct when steering sharply. 5-mode Audi Drive Select is standard, with Audi magnetic ride available as an option.
Other highlights include engine Start/Stop system, Audi Side Assist and B&O sound system.
