What is it?

Introduced in 2019, the 2nd gen. Audi RSQ3 is a small supersport SUV based on the structure of the standard Q3.

Design

Available in standard or Sportback versions, the RSQ3 has aggressive lines that generally follow the style of the other Audi RSs produced since 2019. Overall, the car measures 4,50 x 1,85 meters and weighs an impressive 1790 kilograms.

Interior

Inside, too, the RSQ3 echoes the aesthetic lines of the car on which it is based, the Q3 F3, and also adopts numerous distinctive features of RS cars such as sports seats and top-level infotainment as standard.

Mechanics

This car is powered by the same iconic 2.5 five-cylinder in-line engine that first appeared on the RS3. This time, however, the engine is reduced in size and consumes much less despite maintaining the same performance. Thanks to this powerful engine combined with an automatic/sequential S-Tronic gearbox, the RSQ3 achieves truly sports car acceleration despite poor aerodynamics and high weight. The traction is permanently AWD.
