Search new 2019 and 2020 Audi S3 prices

Audi’s popular duo, the S3 and performance-oriented RS3, are perennial favourites when it comes to the choice of young professionals. Available as either a sedan or hatch, it’s a vehicle that has loads of talent and prowess in a compact and manoeuvrable chassis. While both advertise an aggressive appearance, the RS3 edges out its more ‘vanilla’ peer on account of some sharp detailing and bold colour combinations. Like their shiny exteriors, the cabins are smooth and elegant, with the major distinction being a premium feel in the high-spec variant thanks to intricate stitching, inlay patterns, superior leather and sporty colours. Underpinned by the Quattro AWD system this is a car that feels balanced and in harmony with the road, unwavering in its responsiveness. For a firmer ride there is more grip in the RS3, as well as a reduction in body roll through corners. The 4-cylinder 2L engine found in the standard variant is able to dash to 100km/h in around 4.6 seconds, but you’ll notice the extra cylinder and displacement in the RS3, which can go flat out half a second quicker. A luxury duo like this wouldn’t be complete without the abundant range of safety options and sophisticated controls, plus a deceptively impressive level of space. Why not try both options and see which one takes your fancy?
