People wishing to buy cars mostly go for bulky ones and take up a lot of space on the road. However, motor enthusiasts know that the smaller the car, the better it runs. One of the best examples is the Audi S3. This automobile carries the luxurious legacy of its predecessors. Thanks to its smaller size, it gives the rider more power, sharper looks, and even an incredibly good-looking cabin.

The glorious History of Audi AG
The history of Audi AG is as glorious as its cars. The brand was founded by August Horch & Cie and was christened by Audiwerke AG, giving the brand the name it carries to date. Then in 1932, four major automobile manufacturers forged the Audi logo – the four interlocked rings. Furthermore, in 1971, the company released a slogan – Vorsprung durch Technik, translating to Advancement through technology. This new slogan was inspired by Audi’s brAudi’sw release – the NSU Ro 18.

All about the Audi S3
One of the smallest and least expensive Audi S models, it skipped a year to bring its riders closer to luxury. Furthermore, this automobile appears as a contrast to the gigantic size of today’s cars, but it does not compromise performance or speed.

Performance and engine
The Audi S3 draws its irresistible power from a 2.0-liter turbo-four engine that can deliver up to 306 horsepower. This is quite an advancement compared to its predecessor. Furthermore, it boasts 295-pound feet of torque and can go from 0-60 miles per hour in a record time of 4.3 seconds. Moreover, this all-wheel drive dispatches the quarter mile in a matter of 12.9 seconds at a speed of 108 miles per hour.

Interiors
The Audi S3 might be small, but it does provide the driver and passengers with the utmost comfort. The seats are extremely comfortable and driver-friendly. They provide a comprehensive view of the driving environment, and the high-back bucket seats keep the driver in place without becoming extremely uncomfortable. Furthermore, the automobile comes with a blend of gloss black trims and hard plastic to ensure a visual delight as soon as one finds themselves in the driver’s seat. Moreover, the large oval vents and tall shift levers have been replaced by integrated dashboard vents and a compact shift lever in the center console. This provides the Audi S3 with a far more upscale and premium look.

Technology
This automobile carries a standard 10.3-inch touchscreen integrated into the dashboard’s center. One can also opt for the 12.3-inch screen as a part of Audi’s teAudi’sgy package. The screen is highly configurable and can show up to 3 functions simultaneously. This also includes a navigation system that makes driving a breeze. The Audi S3 also comes equipped with an incredible audio system that can be used with the help of four USB-C ports, Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Furthermore, the car also comes with an optional wireless charging pad.

Fuel Economy
When it comes to fuel economy, the Audi S3 surpasses its predecessors as well. It delivers 23 miles per gallon in the city and 32 miles on the highway. This is an incredible feat compared to the previous numbers – 22 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.
