2021 Audi S3 Sedan
The German brands full-size SUVs now come with a 500-hp twin-turbo V8 and new tech
Since the moment the all-new Audi A3 sedan was unveiled earlier this year, we couldn't wait to see the debut of its stronger, sportier sister. That day has now arrived. Introducing the 2021 Audi S3 Sedan, the so-called entry-level performance sedan from the German automaker. Its predecessor was praised for excellent handling and build quality
2021 Audi S3 Specifications and Features
The power aspect of the Audi S3 is evident - the 2.0-liter TFSI four-cylinder engine sees an increase in horses, now 306 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque, up from 288 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque in the predecessor. The additional grunt allows the Audi S3 to accelerate to 100 km / h in 4.8 seconds, Audi says, on its way to an electronically controlled higher end of 250 km / h
The Turbo-4 is mated to a seven-speed S tronic transmission, and the Quattro all-wheel drive delivers torque on the road. Audi reports that the multi-plate hydraulic clutch in front of the rear axle is fully variable and moves between front and rear as needed. Supported by the standard dynamic control system, it's a new system that closely links the Quattro engine with electronic stability control and optional control dampers
The 2021 Audi S3 Sedan features a bold, dominant single-frame grille that has become synonymous with the brand. The latest incarnation features a stylized design with cool-looking air intakes in matte black
Thanks to Audi's current chief design officer, Mark Licht, the new S3 has a more dynamic and modern design than before. Note the sturdy shoulder that extends the length of the body from the headlights to the taillights. Below it there is a ceiling on the doors that curves inward
Additional features include optional LED headlights and digital daytime running lights with 15 LED lights. In the back there is a large diffuser and four exhaust pipes. Overall, the 2021 S3 doesn't look old with a more aggressive stance, but thanks to its clever design, the sedan is wider than it actually is. The saloon is 1.6 inches long and 1.2 inches wide than its predecessor. It's also 0.6 inches closer to the ground than the A3. 18-inch wheel set is standard and 19-inch optional
