This is the new Audi S3

Audi S3.The Geneva Exhibition, which opens its doors on March 3, will bring a world premiere of the new generation of S3, along with the simple releases of the new A3.

Audi engineers are continuing to test the car’s development in the Azores, with the company releasing the first images.

The S3 will be offered in a five-door body and will be mounted on the VW Group‘s MQB platform. Powered by the 2.0 TFSI 310 hp and 380 Nm of torque, the drive is transmitted to all wheels via the quattro system. The motor is combined with a seven-speed automatic transmission and the selector is shift-by-wire.

In terms of design, despite the camouflage of the body, there is the big singleframe grille, bumper air intakes, the widest rear diffuser and four exhaust ends, side spoilers and roof rails.

Inside, the difference will be the sports seats, the large digital dashboard, the central touch screen and the three-wheel steering wheel.
