Setting the pace of performance
The extraordinary performance of the RS 3 Sportback is a result of its legendary five-cylinder powerplant, an engine revered in motorsport circles and refined over years to its present incarnation. From its distinctive roar to its outstanding driving dynamics, the 2.5-litre TFSI engine never fails to excite in every driving situation.
The essence of RS
Like the overall design, the rear of the RS 3 Sportback is subtle yet leaving no doubt as to the character of the car. The large oval tailpipes are a dead giveaway as to its performance retention, as is the roof mounted spoiler, LED rear lights and robust rear diffuser. Yet practicality is not sacrificed for sport, the rear tailgate opening with a foot gesture for ease of access when your hands are full.
The sound of the RS 3 Sportback
The multi award-winning 2.5-litre five-cylinder engine is revered in performance circles, building an enviable reputation in motorsport arenas around the world. But it is the distinctive howl of its 1-2-4-5-3 firing sequence that has become as famous as its blistering power delivery, heralding its approach and departure to all who know the sound.
Interior excellence
The interior of the RS 3 mirrors the sport-oriented feel and finish of the exterior, perfectly illustrating the highest values for which the RS range are famous. From the highest quality materials and workmanship to the seamless integration of the RS-specific functions within the Audi virtual cockpit, every aspect of the interior is carefully considered and beautifully executed.
