The legendary 2.5-litre TFSI engine with its five cylinders immediately makes our intentions a reality. And with the standard RS sport suspension, which is 10 mm lower than on the basic model, every curve becomes a sensation. To precisely set the direction, the Audi RS Q3 Sportback comes with RS-specific, adjusted progressive steering. Damper control improves driving dynamics and directional stability, and also ensures better handling and comfort. And if we decide on the spur of the moment to stop, the standard RS steel brake system with optional brake calipers in red have plenty of braking power – as do the optional ceramic brakes with brake calipers in gray, red or blue.
The interior of the Audi RS Q3 Sportback is as impressive as the exterior, thanks to dynamic styling that penetrates every detail. From the standard RS sport leather steering wheel, flattened at the bottom with multifunction buttons, and the standard inlays in Aluminum Race Anthracite – optionally in Piano Black finish or Carbon – to the standard RS sport seats in fine Nappa leather with RS-specific honeycomb pattern and integrated head restraints. You can also choose to take the sportiness up a notch with the optional RS design packages red or blue, which set additional accents. A highlight prior to every trip is the entry lighting with Audi Sport projection in the doors.
No matter where they’re taking the Audi RS Q3 Sportback, the driver doesn’t miss a thing: Controls such as the standard MMI touch display are oriented toward the driver. The standard Audi virtual cockpit plus, provides high-resolution information, featuring a fully digital 12.3-inch instrument cluster with RS-specific design and full HD resolution, shift light display and other special RS displays – fully adjustable to the driver’s needs, showing for example speed, revs, acceleration, power output or torque.
