Carsguide Contributing Journalist David Morley had this to say at the time: If conventionally powered cars really are on the endangered list, it’s vehicles like the Audi RS3 that will remind us what we’ve lost. There’s so much fun to be had in this car, that you really need to take it to a track to tap into it safely and responsibly. And there’s the rub.

Clarity of information has been an Audi long suit for years. The latest generation Audis take that to new levels with the clever virtual cockpit the highlight. RS3 also gets a head-up display.
With a claimed 0-100km/h time of under four seconds, the RS3 is a supercar in civvies. Top speed is limited to 250km/h unless you option up the RS Dynamic Package which removes the limiter for a 290km/h potential.

RS3 package isn't just a badge. As well as wider track and wider fenders to cope with that, the engine grows an extra cylinder (for five) and a more sophisticated version of all-wheel-drive is fitted.
Obviously they’re both high performance cars that are designed to eat up the open road, but equally they have to be able to handle the pressures of day-to-day motoring. I wouldn’t like to say one is better than the other for daily use, and I wouldn’t be buying one on that basis, so go for the one that most appeals for its performance.

With a rear seat that offers a 40:20:40, the RS3 is actually as practical as any other 3-series Audi. The Sportback is ultimately a little more spacy than the sedan thanks to its hatchback layout.
