Audi RS3 Sedan 2024
Updated in 2024, the Audi RS3 Sedan retains its 294 kW (400 PS), 500 Nm 2.5-litre turbocharged five-cylinder engine. Quattro all-wheel drive, the rear-axle torque splitter and a seven-speed S tronic transmission support a chassis retuned for greater cornering precision.
History
The modern Audi RS3 is derived from the A3 family and serves as the entry point to the Audi Sport range. The current generation introduced an active rear-axle torque splitter in 2021. The 2024 update refines the styling, chassis control systems and tyres while retaining the same maximum output.
