The S3 Sedan has received significant performance upgrades with an increased output of 17 kW and 20 Nm more torque. Sportier engine and transmission tuning, a new rear torque splitter and Dynamic Plus drive select mode combine with the legendary quattro all-wheel drive for exceptional driving dynamics.

S exterior design elements including S front and rear bumpers, a hexagonal frameless Singleframe grille with distinct L-shaped design elements, quad tailpipes and S badging underscores the dynamic character of the S3 Sedan.

The Matrix LED headlights with dynamic light sequencing and dynamic indicators provide precise, high-resolution illumination of the road. Redesigned elements in the headlight emphasise the sporty look while the selectable daytime running light signature – arranged in three rows on the upper edge of the housing – adds a high degree of personalisation.

Sumptuous sport front seats with integrated headrests in fine Nappa leather upholstery, unique S appointments, 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.

The S3 Sportback is available with a choice of exterior finishes that impressively showcase the design language including the newly available District green, Progressive red and Ascari blue. For the first time, Daytona grey (shown), District green and Glacier white are also available in a striking matt finish¹.
