Scintillating performance.
With 294 kW of power and 500 Nm of torque combined with the optimised torque splitter, electronic stability control and wheel-selective torque technologies, the new RS 3 Sedan is now even more spirited.
Design follows performance.
Chiselled and more aggressive than before, the expressive new design language and RS-specific elements hint at the tremendous performance potential of the RS 3 Sedan.
A leading light.
The Matrix LED headlights with dynamic light sequencing provide precise, high-resolution illumination of the road. Redesigned elements in the headlight and unique darkened bezels emphasise the sporty look while the selectable daytime running light signature – including the motorsport inspired chequered flag design – adds a high degree of personalisation.
Awaken the senses.
Sumptuous sport front seats with integrated headrests in fine Nappa leather upholstery with RS embossing and honeycomb quilting, appointments in vanadium look, flattened sports contour steering wheel, SONOS 3D premium sound system and colour ambient lighting package pro featuring illuminated backlit fabric panels in the front doors deliver a truly sensory cabin experience.
Progressive and expressive.
The sharpened design language is accentuated by the RS-specific exterior colours Kyalami Green and Kemora Gray (shown), the new metallic paints Ascari Blue and Progressive Red, and, for the first time, Daytona Gray in a matt finish¹.
A new dynamic.
The iconic quattro all-wheel drive system is paired with the RS torque splitter; two electronically controlled multi-plate clutches that distributes drive force dynamically between the front axle and the individual rear wheels for unrivalled control and handling.
Setting the pace.
The multi award-winning 2.5-litre five-cylinder engine in the RS 3 Sedan is revered in performance circles, building an enviable reputation in motorsport arenas around the world for its astonishing power.
Soundcheck.
The distinctive howl of the RS 3 Sedan’s signature 1-2-4-5-3 firing sequence has become as famous as its blistering power delivery, heralding its approach and departure to all who know the sound.
Select your drive.
Offering a wide range of driving experiences from comfort to dynamic, the Audi drive select function on the RS 3 Sedan also features RS-specific driving modes to change the vehicle’s driving dynamics at the touch of a button.
Unmistakably RS.
The front of the RS 3 Sedan features a flat, wide Audi Singleframe with an RS-specific honeycomb structure, flanked by large side air intakes which are accentuated by vertical blades. The three apertures above the front splitter – which now spans the entire width of the RS 3 for a more planted stance – pay homage to Audi motorsport heritage.
Strong side.
From its profile, the continuous shoulder line extends to the rear door to emphasise the length with unique RS side skirts reinforcing the powerful look of the RS 3 Sedan.
Powerful finish.
The large RS-specific diffuser gives the RS 3 Sedan a wider and more confident appearance from behind. The Audi motorsport inspired centre vertical reflector, along with the characteristic oval tailpipe trim, RS badging and rear spoiler round off the look.
Rolling statement.
There are three wheel designs available with the Audi RS 3 Sedan including the optional Audi RS 3 LMS inspired 19” Audi Sport alloy wheels in 10-cross-spoke design, gloss turned finish (shown). Red painted brake callipers with RS logo reinforce the high performance look.
Open to experiences
Now available as standard on the RS 3 Sedan, panoramic glass sunroof completes the sporty appearance on the outside while offering an expansive atmosphere from within.
Feel the sportiness.
From the flatter gear selector design, to the refined air vents and centre console, all elements blend seamlessly to emphasise the width of the cockpit. Accentuated by the inlays in carbon atlas structure, finishes in a unique vanadium look and colour ambient lighting package pro with illuminated backlit fabric panels in the front doors harmoniously combine to deliver a sporty impression.
Pole position.
Sport front seats in sumptuous fine Nappa leather upholstery with RS embossing and honeycomb stitching await you inside. The pronounced seat side bolsters provide lateral support and the integrated headrests ensure additional comfort. Opting for the RS design package plus enhances the sporty look with contrast stitching and seat shoulders finished in express red (shown) or micrommata green.
Centre of excellence.
Available for the first time in the RS 3 Sedan, the sports contour steering wheel – flattened at the top and bottom – enhances the high performance feeling and features elements unique to the RS 3, including hands-on detection*, shift paddles in vanadium look and two control satellites for direct selection of the Audi drive select modes. The optional RS design package plus further adds express red (shown) or micrommata green stitching and a distinctive motorsport-inspired 12 o’clock marker.
Performance at a glance.
Even at speed, monitoring important vehicle information is integral to the driver-oriented cockpit. With RS Sport, Performance and Runway display options, performance outputs like power, torque, g meter and lap timer can be appraised with a glance at the high-resolution 12.3-inch colour display.
Intensive sound experience.
The Audi RS 3 Sedan is equipped with the SONOS 3D premium sound system. 15 high-performance loudspeakers including subwoofer turn music into an unforgettable experience. The brilliant reproduction of high and low tones together with the rich bass can be experienced in their entirety.
