While we were giving you our impressions of the successful Q3 Sportback not too long ago, Audi lifts the veil on the RS version.
The original Q3 and its Sportback version will both be entitled to this sporty finish that promises not to go unnoticed.Already threatening, the coupe shows here really very aggressive and attractive as long as we appreciate a minimum of the SUV. Both models opt for a more plunging hood which ends with a large air intake just above the octagonal grille specific to the brand with rings. The latter seems even more willing to project forward and is surrounded by more imposing air intakes. At the rear, two large oval exhaust outlets are grafted into the diffuser. Finally, large 20 (series) or 21 (option) inch rims will be available in the catalog to hide nothing of its temperament.
Under the hood we benefit from the new 5-cylinder 2.5 TFSI developing no less than 400 hp and 480 Nm of torque for a nice 0 to 100 km / h in just 4.5 seconds. The manufacturer also promises a top speed of 280 km / h (optional, otherwise regulated at 250 km / h). To help it, we find the excellent 7-speed S Tronic automatic gearbox associated with the quattro all-wheel drive, what to expect always excellent handling and impressive dynamism for a baby weighing nearly 2 tons (with passengers ????) on the scale.
Apart from the styling and the engine, many other things have passed into the hands of the “RS” engineers. The suspension thus allows the Q3 to be lowered by 10 mm compared to conventional models, it can also be piloted to improve handling in real time, a ceramic braking system is available as an option and the entire cabin can be customized to breathe. sportsmanship. Colors, leather, alcantara, there is something to do to appeal to all tastes.
The prices are not yet known but, no surprise, with an entry price of up to € 52,000 for the 45 TFSI of 230 hp you should not expect to have it at home for less than 65,000 € excluding penalty of € 10,000. To order, you will have to wait a little longer, but it must arrive at the dealership in the very first months of 2020.
