2026 Audi RS3 Competition Limited: Outlandish swansong for five-cylinder power

Audi is known for its high-performance cars that combine luxury and speed. But their latest release takes it to a whole new level. The new run-out Audi RS3 special edition is the perfect combination of style, performance, and exclusivity. And guess what? Australia is getting just 18 of them!

The Audi RS3 special edition is a limited edition model that is set to bid farewell to the current generation of the RS3. It is the last hurrah for this iconic model, and Audi has certainly pulled out all the stops to make it a memorable one.

One of the most striking features of the RS3 special edition is its coilover suspension. This advanced suspension system provides exceptional handling and control, allowing drivers to push the car to its limits. It also allows for adjustable ride height, giving drivers the option to tailor the suspension to their liking. This feature is usually reserved for high-end sports cars, but Audi has gone the extra mile to include it in the RS3 special edition.

But that’s not all. The RS3 special edition also boasts a lot of carbon fiber. From the front splitter, side skirts, and rear diffuser to the side mirrors and the engine cover, this lightweight material is used extensively throughout the car. Not only does it give the car a more aggressive look, but it also helps to reduce weight, making the car even more dynamic and responsive.

The interior of the RS3 special edition is a sight to behold. It is a perfect combination of luxury and sportiness. The seats are upholstered in fine Nappa leather with red stitching, adding a touch of elegance. But the real showstopper is the carbon fiber trim, which can be seen on the door panels, center console, and dashboard. It not only looks stunning but also enhances the overall driving experience.

As for the performance, the RS3 special edition is powered by the same 2.5-liter turbocharged five-cylinder engine found in the standard RS3. However, it has been tuned to produce an impressive 400 horsepower, making it the most powerful RS3 ever produced. This means that the RS3 special edition can go from 0-100 km/h in just 4.1 seconds, which is 0.2 seconds faster than the standard RS3. Top speed is electronically limited to 280 km/h, but with the optional Dynamic Package Plus, it can be increased to 290 km/h.

But it’s not just about speed. The RS3 special edition also offers a practical side. It has a spacious boot, making it suitable for everyday use. The high-quality Bang & Olufsen sound system adds a touch of luxury, making it the perfect car for long drives or everyday commutes.

Only 18 units of the RS3 special edition will be available in Australia, making it a highly exclusive and sought-after model. And for those lucky enough to get their hands on one, they will also receive a complimentary five-year service plan, which is a testament to Audi’s commitment to its customers.

The Audi RS3 special edition is a celebration of the RS3’s success and a way for Audi to thank its loyal customers. But it is also a glimpse into the future of the RS models. The advanced suspension, extensive use of carbon fiber, and the powerful engine are a clear indication that Audi is continuously pushing the boundaries of what is possible in a high-performance car.

In conclusion, the run-out Audi RS3 special edition is a rare gem that combines luxury, performance, and exclusivity in one stunning package. With only 18 units available in Australia, it is a collector’s item that is sure to turn heads and leave a lasting impression.
