Q3 / RS Q3 [Official] Audi RS Q3 - No Longer a Concept but Reality

[martinbo]

"The ideal harmonisation of power and road performance is one of the primary goals of quattro GmbH for every RS model. Here, the focus is not on nominal values, but rather in the ideal configuration of the potential of the specific model.

In other words, if they gave it more power it would push nose like a pig.

It has the 2.5 5cyl. under the bonnet and looks kind of cute!
It's as pointless as a car could ever be... but I'd love to drive it as a daily
Why am I going crazy in that early age... ?

 

[Tumbo]

I just have to say it again: I HATE THIS CAR

Still doesnt deserve the RS badge

I have such a soft spot for the looks of the 'RS' Q variants.

You should see the people fawning over the SQ5 at the local dealer lol.

You know, the SQ5 is my ultimate dreamcar... I'm already looking on ways to buy a new one in the States, and import it to the ME, cause Audi announced it's not bringing it here. It's the ultimate Audi for me. The RSQ3 on the other hand, is way to weak being an RS.

Variants? There is only one RSQ so far.

But I guess we can count this in, in that category you described

 

[Mr. Mercedes]

I like this RSQ3!

I like this RSQ3!

I like the looks of it, for sure.
But a 310hp and 5.5 seconds to 100km/h, it should be called SQ3, or just Q3 2.5T.
If we would say a 380hp and 4.7 seconds to 100km/h, then it would be worthy the name RS.

Yeah it is quite a looker.

That exhaust looks stupid.

 

[Merc1]

For some reason I really like this tiny terror. Is the Q3 coming to the U.S? If so they should release both the cooking versions an this RS version at the same time to battle the GLA 250 and GLA45 head on.

^ I believe I read some where it would when the facelift comes out.

This RSQ3 is a disgrace to the RS division. It is one of the most pointless vehicle on the market right now.

 

[lukeswiss]

I think I would be inclined to just get the RS3....

Its one letter too many and the letter I'm referring to is R. If they'd marketed it as a SQ3 then we'd all view it as a warm SUV.
