The 2023 Audi RS3 Is A Pint-Sized Super Sedan With A Turbo Unicorn Under The Hood

With ICE powered vehicles continuing to represent the past as we marched toward electrification, finding a brand new car with a unique engine like this 2023 #AudiRS3 is a very good thing, especially for enthusiast. The redesigned #RS3 has what is essentially half of the motor from a Lamborghini Huracan, a 2.5L turbocharged 5-cylinder engine making 401 HP. While #Audi continues to offer the new RS3 as only a sedan in America, this #Quattro AWD #SuperSedan can accelerate to 60 MPH as quick as some supercars and for all this performance, the latest RS3 is actually a decent value if you can keep the options in check.

Happy Weds everyone and say hello to the only brand-new 5-cylinder powered vehicle you can currently purchase in America! We suspect this car will eventually become a highly sought after car in the used car market since Audi, like so many brands has pledged to go all-electric by 2033. Hope you guys enjoy the lovely tunes coming from the exhaust in this video!

[@lions208436]

Another excellent review. Is the 5 pot a cast iron block or all aluminum?

[@Kiss__Kiss]

@@lions208436 Both aluminum unfortunately. Great from a weight perspective, but iron block and aluminum head is what I would have done, as an engine designer(Which I am not). lol

[@lions208436]

@@Kiss__Kiss Thanks for the feedback. Didn't take the time to verify so thanks for confirming that it's aluminum. Also, I have a couple buddies that work on classic and modern car's and there preference is all aluminum..not just because of weight but they claim it's more durable and if probably maintained stuffers from less wear from heat and friction v cast iron.

according to what auto journalist claim, Americans don't like hatchbacks. not that i would want every car to look like that, but they get that from the industry. the truth is i think they only go by what sells here, and it is true that sedans sell more in the US. but i don't think Americans hate hatchbacks, it's just that if you're Audi, BMW, or Mercedes, hatchbacks tend to sell better in Europe. so that could be why they didn't bring it here.

[@helenwilliams7611]

@theredline If you had a choice between the Audi S3 and RS3 - which would you choose? Currently, I am the market for a new car and have narrowed my options down to those two options. Unfortunately, none of the local dealerships ever have either of those models in stock and when they do that are immediately sold - so I am unable to test drive either. I am seeking an executive luxury daily driver with power/kick and extremely smooth shifting. I have no intention of ever drifting but tend to have a lead foot on the highway lol so would like the ability to do high speeds easily. The 5 cylinder engine on the RS3 sounds so tempting but I wonder if it's too much power. Any thoughts?

[@longbowdt]

Nice review. You pointed out the high points and the not so great aspects, as usual. Can you give me your impression of the cabin noise and ride comfort at highway speeds? Tolerable for long-distance travel? Sometimes, I travel off the main highways, if the back roads are accommodating. BTW, I'd daily the too. :)

[@theredline]

When you put the car in comfort/auto it drives and rides how you’d expect an Audi sedan too. Very daily drive-able with a relatively quiet cabin. It should be able to get close to 30 mpg if you keep the speeds below 70 MPH as well.

[@zTimmyz0244]

I drove 2022 a few months ago and it super quiet in comfort mode. Seats are really comfortable, and I'm 6'2 215lbs. After I drove it I order a 2023

@Tim thank you for replying. I live in SW Ohio. I'm trying to export some of our potholes to unfavorable nations. Until I can, are you concerned about the 19s on the front end?

[@hlf_coder6272]

I own a 2023 RS3. Got it about 2 months ago. If you put it in comfort it’s basically an A3. Super quiet, nice ride. All that. And the cabin is quiet. You’ll have no complaints there. No annoying rattles or anything. Hit the RS button and it turns into a monster. But if you’re interested I’d get your order in sooner than later. It took mine 9 months to arrive, but supposedly people are being told 18 months now. Good luck

[@mauricetoussaint7283]

Pint sized? It's a mid-sized car! In fact, it wasn't that long ago that the RS4 was the same size as this car. You can fit four adults in there and if you get the sportback (I have one on order), fold the rear seats and there's a ton of room. It will be my daily, so school runs, shopping and even fishing... oh the steering wheel is not large! It is the same size as the flat bottom option, which people think is smaller. Measure them, you will find they're the same. Got the flat version optioned on my RS3.

[@curtdragon]

A few things. The car already comes with the black optics but can get a black optics us which adds wheels and rings in black and requires black sport exhaust. So no silver except exhaust and wheels. The roof is a panoramic but there's an option for it to be painted black. Can't get seats in any color but black. Stitching can come in a few colors.
