Mat’s got his hands on the new Audi S3!

It’s a facelift more than an all-new design, and Mat’s about to find out how much it’s improved over the previous edition.

For starters, let’s check out the engine! It arrives with the same 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo as the previous car, however, the performance has been increased. It can now produce 333hp and 420Nm, 23hp & 20Nm more than the previous car. It’s still equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch, and it also has Quattro all-wheel drive.

When it comes to the design, it’s still relatively similar to the previous edition, with a couple of tweaks. Around the back, there’s a bootlip spoiler, as well as an updated aggressive rear bumper. As usual, there are also quad-tailpipes. Along the side are some side skirts and black door mirrors. Up front, there’s a new aggressive bumper, as well as a blacked-out grille. The air intake on either side of the grille looks pretty menacing, too.

Step inside and it’s all largely the same as the previous edition. There’s a Sport S steering wheel, as well as the usual S sport seats. There are soft-touch materials throughout most of the dash, as well as Alcantara on the dash. Otherwise, it’s all pretty much the same, apart from the gear selector design changing slightly.

But is it worth the £47,000 starting price? You’ll need to stick with Mat to see for yourself.
