Audi RS3 Facelift Unveiled: Here’s What’s New
Notably, it will be the last Audi to be powered by a 5-cylinder engine.
A few years on from its 2021 launch, Audi has now revealed a mid-life facelift, which brings an updated design and chassis enhancements to both the hyper hatch and its saloon sibling.
Audi claims the RS3 facelift performs better on corners than the outgoing model, thanks to some fine-tuning, including updates to the brake torque vectoring.
