We have been reporting in detail about the Audi Q3 that is headed our way. Here, we present you a few details on the RS Concept, the performance version of the youngest and smallest Q. On the outside, a new single frame grille, large air intakes, tinted headlights, redesigned bumper with integrated rear diffuser, and tail pipes, electric sunroof, twenty-inch wheels wearing 255/30 rubber and a blue paint job differentiate between the RS and the plain jane Q3. Talking of the insides, the RS comes with Nappa leather and Alcantara, plenty of Q3 RS badges, and a tachometer with Chinese numerals.
Now the real bit- powering the car is a 2.5-liter, five-cylinder, TSI engine that pumps out a healthy 360 PS. The motor is mated to a seven-speed S-Tronic gearbox and power is transmitted to all 4 wheels thru the Quattro system. The car does 0-100 kmphin in a quick 5.3 seconds and has a top whack of 265 kmph.
