It’s our way of seeing more recent wins at Le Mans, we the world. It is the driving have always been at the forefront force behind our history of of the motor industry. innovation that continues into the 21st century.
The RS Q3. Style meets power. The poise and style of a Q model. The power and performance of an RS. Welcome to the new Audi RS Q3. An impressive 2.5-litre TFSI engine delivers an astonishing 340PS and 450Nm of torque, while its 7 speed S tronic gearbox has been refined for faster gear changes. The result: acceleration from 0-62mph in just 4.8 seconds. And, with RS design details both inside and out, a car that’s as attractive as it is exhilarating.
Look good, see better. Every RS Q3 model comes complete with striking LED headlights. This innovative technology emits a continuous beam of bright light, with a colour close to daylight – lighting the road ahead with unprecedented clarity. The sleek and subtle design of Audi LED headlights make them the perfect addition to the Audi RS Q3. And with dynamic LED indicators at the rear, the look is complete.
The engineering behind the power A car as powerful as the RS Q3 needs systems that are just as powerful. RS sports suspension, engineered exclusively for RS models, lowers both axles and offers firmer tuning for a more dynamic, closer-to-the-road drive. Optional RS sports suspension plus with damper control is also available. Working in conjunction with Audi drive select, it allows you to determine the characteristics of the twin-tube shock absorbers according to road conditions and your driving style.
Grip, whatever the weather. The innovative all-wheel drive system that helped us secure victories on the track comes as standard in the RS Q3. Harnessing the power generated by the engine, quattro® provides optimised handling and an enhanced driving experience. In everyday conditions, you’ll experience a lighter, more agile drive. And, should conditions change unexpectedly, the RS Q3 will be ready to respond – delivering power and traction exactly where it’s needed.
Built for performance The 2.5-litre engine in the Audi RS Q3 has been refined and improved. Not only is it EU6 emissions compliant, it now produces 340PS of power and 450 Nm of torque from 1,600-5,300 rpm. The result is superior power at lower revs and enormous sprinting ability up to a maximum speed of 155mph. The 5-cylinder core design makes an unmistakable sound through the RS exhaust system, while its compact dimensions and low weight help the overall balance of the car.
Engineered for responsiveness The 7-speed S tronic gearbox transfers the engine’s power to the quattro drivetrain via a newly designed, hydraulic multi-plate clutch. Lower gears are spaced closely together for a sporty response, while the seventh is designed for fuel economy at cruising speeds. The result is faster, more responsive gear changes, with acceleration from 0-62mph in a breathtaking 4.8 seconds.
Inside the RS Q3 With any RS model, power is just part of the story. Step inside the RS Q3 and you’ll find a cabin richly appointed with RS design cues that accentuate its performance. Sports seats, upholstered in Fine Nappa leather with contrast stitching, set the tone. On the instrument cluster, red needles sweep across grey, RS-badged dials. And a bespoke driver information system offers a special RS menu, with lap timer, oil temperature and boost pressure displays.
Technology is advancing at an ever faster pace, and choosing the right technology for your car is an important decision. From driver assistance technologies to features designed to help keep you entertained on the go, the RS Q3 is available with some of our most advanced innovations. You can even choose our Technology package or the Comfort package Plus (please refer to page 50 for more details).
