About the Audi RS Q3 F3
The second-generation Audi RS Q3 introduced the Sportback body style, blending the brand's iconic 2.5-litre five-cylinder engine with a more aggressive, raked roofline. This F3-generation model produces 400 PS, delivered through a seven-speed S tronic gearbox and quattro all-wheel drive, enabling a 0-100 km/h sprint in just 4.5 seconds. The engine, a multi-year winner of the International Engine of the Year award, provides a unique 1-2-4-5-3 firing order soundtrack that distinguishes it from four-cylinder rivals. Inside, it features Audi's Virtual Cockpit and RS-specific displays, though it remains a practical choice with a sliding rear bench and a decent luggage capacity despite the sloping rear.
