Audi RS3: Audi's ″pocket″ firecracker

In the 80s of the last century, Audi installed an in-line 5-cylinder engine with a turbine in the Coupe model, equipped it with four-wheel drive, and the legendary Quattro model was created. Almost 40 years later, they applied the same formula to Audi's entry-level sedan (also hatchback) and created the toxic Audi RS3.

Just like its distant and currently still current predecessor, the new one also has Audi RS3 turbine in-line 5-cylinder engine. The newcomer also boasts four-wheel drive, torque vectoring and will be available in sedan and so-called Sportback versions. The design of the newcomer is still more aggressive, which will easily distinguish it from the rest of Audi models. This is also known in the interior, where we have available contrasting combinations between red, green and black. The driver has Audi's full-size virtual hoof at his disposal 12.3-inch and 10.1-inch info-telematic touch screen. A projection screen is available, and carbon fiber inserts in the interior are already part of the standard equipment for the RS3 model.

The Audi RS3 is said to be capable of the fastest acceleration in its class. 2.5-liter in-line turbo 5-cylinder engine has 400 horsepower (294 kW) and 500 Nm of torque. The engine thus has enough power to launch the Audi RS3 from 0 to 100 km/h 3.8 seconds. The maximum speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h, which can be increased to 280 km/h when ordering a package. And if that's not enough for you, opt for front ceramic brakes and your Audi RS3 will be able to reach top speed 290 km/h. The Audi RS3 is already available for order, and its price starts at 60,000 euros.
