The model
Read full Audi A3 review
The Audi S3 makes a strong case for itself. It's plusher than a VW Golf R, more fun than a BMW M135 and subtler than a Mercedes-AMG A35 – but there’s a catch. The S3 Vorsprung is the sweet spot in the range, thanks to its brilliant adaptive dampers, but doesn’t come cheap. And at that price, you’re dangerously close to entering RS3 territory – and that car unlocks another level of performance.
The trim
S Line benefits from includes 18in alloy wheels, sports suspension, S line front and rear bumpers, stainless steel pedals, a flat-bottom steering wheel and customisable multi-colour interior lighting, and a rear bench that folds in a 40/20/40 split.
The engine
The entry-level 1.5-litre petrol engine has a fairly modest 114bhp. We’ve yet to drive this version.
