The 2018 Audi RS 3 is a high-performance variant of the A3 and S3 sedans. It is available in a single trim level and is powered by a turbocharged 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine (400 hp, 354 lb-ft). A seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic transmission sends power to all four wheels.
PROS Potent acceleration and heaps of traction Well-trimmed cabin Enough practicality to serve everyday use
CONS Ride quality might be too firm for casual drivers Snug back seat and small cargo area
Overall, an excellent car, even considering the high price given the size. It has a well-rounded set of features, and when performance is taken into account, some would even argue that it is good value for money. Definitely well worth a drive!

Cons Turbo lag (which may be a pro for some!); Transmission logic in Comfort mode; Software bugs in engine and transmission control units; Lack of electric seat adjustability; No puddle lights
