Reviews Summary

The 2022 Audi RS 3 is the cherry on top of the A3 and S3 sundae, delivering serious performance while remaining playful and approachable. It’s also more practical, comfortable, and technologically proficient than you might expect from a track-ready car. This level of versatility is rare and deserves your consideration.
