Mat’s finally got his hands on the all-new Audi RS3!

He’ll be testing out both the Sportback & Saloon versions throughout this video to find out if this maxed-out A3 has what it takes to compete with its predecessor, along with competitors such as the A45!

For starters, it’s clearly not shy of performance when you check out what’s under the bonnet! That’s right, the 2.5-litre 5 cylinder is back, pumping out the same 400hp as before along with slightly more torque, at 500Nn. Audi claim it’ll hit 60mph in 3.8 seconds, but will it?! You’ll have to keep watching to find out…

When it comes to the design, there’ll be no mistaking the RS3 for either an A or S3, with the aggressive grille upfront through to the huge oval tailpipes at the back really helping it to stand out. What’s more, once you take a look inside, you’ll find a whole load of red stitching & accents throughout the cabin.

But is it really worth the £51,000 starting price? There’s only one way to find out… Stick with Mat for this all-new review!
