NEW KING! 2025 AUDI RS3 SEDAN FACELIFT - Faster, more agile, incredible handling & driving feel

- Alright then. It’s time to show you the facelifted RS3 in a fully detailed video. Sounds, drifts, accelerations, details and beauty shots is all in there.
Also, I just want to take a moment to go deep into this. Because credit needs to go where it’s due. I spent two full days with different new RS3’s, drove surely at least 7-8 hours and 1000km altogether. I drove it hard on track as well, and I came to the conclusion: This is one of the most impressive, if not the most impressive handling Audi I have ever driven. Lapping it full throttle on the track, you immediately notice the difference from the pre-facelift. And I’ve driven probably 100 8Y pre-facelift RS3’s last 3 years. What the Audi engineers have achieved here, I take my hats off to them. And I told them. They were there at the event, and the people that have been working on the car, are people with passion and they love cars! I spend 3 hours talking with them at the dinner table, and oh my did we have good laughs.
Yes, the steering wheel and that gearshifter are still what they a disaster, and the badge situation is gonna be fixed we know that know. But I can’t think about that at this moment, where I really need to give full respect to what the engineers have achieved with being limited to the 400 horses by the board people.
What they have done with the suspension, the ECU/TCU, tyres, wheels, brakes and handling, is blowing me away.
Thank you guys. You know who you are. YOU are what Audi is to me.

RS badges are back 🙋🏻♂️🚗💕👌🏻
What years did they remove them?
Those DRLs in the front are so friggin cool !!!!!!! 🏁 🏁 🏁 🏁 🏁 🏁 🏁 🏁 🏁 🏁 🏁 🏁
Looks amazing. Sounds great as well. And looks so much fun🔥
The badge is back
Doubt it. All other videos it’s not there, even the configurator shows it’s been removed. This video it was added to the car as mentioned by another user
they put it on theirselves
@@pricey78 I'm.guessing by the time these are delivered spring summer they will have the badges
@@TomDw94 ill have to do the same
...
@@liamsandie Nope. All new model Audi S and RS will have no front badge. What you see in this video was added by the owner, not Audi.
This is such a rocket!
I can immediately hear that it sounds louder than pre facelift, it sounds pretty close to pre opf models, well done Audi!
As an 8y VFL driver I definitely say yes.
No different. I looked at one in Germany last week, sounds same as my RS3 8Y. Just start in dynamic and mine pops and crackles too. Audi aren't fooling anyone, it's the same car but with a terrible steering wheel.
@@luciussander8217ive driven one last weekend. It sounds better than prefacelift. Not much louder tho. The prefacelift does not sound like a 5 zylinder, the facelift does. Both are similar loud i agree with that. The pops are definitly louder while driving. The gauges are way better since they went back for the one cluster/speedometer style. Steering wheel looks ass and is way too thin while holding i agree. Car handles better and looks by far better than prefacelift. The wheels in real life are striking.
The option to get the new bucket rs seats are the cherry on the cake
All in all a really good facelift.
Would love a bump in hp to 420hp at least.
Hi Auditographi 👍🏻 As always, something new is the Best 💯...
Insane beast ❤
❤❤❤
Top Video, danke.
Top innerraum für Kompaktklassr, schade keine beleuchteten Gurtschlösser.
Kein Augmentet Reality HUD finde ich sehr sehr schade.
Das normale 3-speichen Lenkrad find ich schön, das im Test wagen leider nicht. Ich persönlich hatte keine Probleme mit den Tasten auf der Probefahrt mit dem Q4.
"Nur" Matrix Licht? Warum nicht HD, Laser oder Digital Light? Wo ist der Vorsprung durch Technik?
Aussen sehr schade keine Rahmenlosen Fensterseitenscheiben, wäre echt cool beim RS3.
Auch sehr schade das es das beleuchtete Audi Logo nicht auf den RS3 geschaft hat.
Echte Endrohre sind top.
Kann den RS5 als Limo kaum noch erwarten.
ich finde es so lustig das wieder der deutsche kommentar was zum meckern gefunden hat. alle anderen schreiben nur nices zeugs darüber und siehe da, deutschland wieder am meckern
@@MS-vv3dm bin aus der Schweiz, aber ja stimmt, die anderen sind hell auf begeistert 🤩, was ja auch angebracht ist. Ich finde nur mann kann immer was verbessern und die Hersteller hören gerne was noch besser gemacht werden kann. Heißt aber nicht das sie das dann auch machen, auch wenn ich es mir wünschen würde.
es ist immer noch eine Kompaktklasse,also übertreibe mal nicht....wenn du mehr willst,dann hole dir RS6/7,RSQ8,S6/7,SQ8 oder S8
Did you add the front grill badge or did that come with the car?
I added it myself.
How did you add it to the grill? I’ve a new RS3 ordered & will also order a badge, but not sure which one to get & how to fix it to the grill.
Great videos & please keep them coming 👍🏻👍🏻
@@paulmcshane8026 Can you order front grill badge ?
Any idea if i can put fl rear bumper on pre fl?
Wait the front badge is back. Please dear god tell me they listened?? The other videos I've seen didn't have the badge but this couldn't have been put on by accident.
They did listen. That being said, I believe this is one put on afterwards. From here on out though, the badge is back on the front from the factory.
@@snakeeyes9246Are you sure. I checked with my dealer and the configurator and both say it’s not. All other press videos show its missing as well. Suppose time will tell
@@pricey78 They have changed the A5 configurator so far. You get an S-line badge and the quattro badge if you select the options.
Potęga
Soon the height of the rear piano black "diffusor" is gonna reach roof level. I hated pre-facelift fake honeycomb rear grill, but it looks much better then this Death Race tombstone rear bumper on facelift
Too bad the US doesn't get these gorgeous wheels(sure, subjective). Other than that, pretty good price for the performance it gives. You think the interior is crappy/cheap? Of course, you aren't paying for it, relatively speaking. If so, move up a class or two, if that's your objective.. But that Kemora Gray exterior, just sets it apart.
Finally the badge is coming back. But sadly it doesnt fit the ugly new ms word badge design on the back. They have to change it since even the interior badging or brake caliper are in italic
Again the US will not get the carbon buckets😔
In as much as audi is trying to eliminate some understeer by putting less wide tyres at the back...That affects launches...Too much wheel spin from less crip
Mine hits 60mph in 3.6 seconds, so don't worry about the tyre sizes pal.
Another great RS. Everything is cool except the wheels. With that car the wheels are boring 🥱🥱🥱
I prefer the bmw m3, looks more aggressive to me.
The M2 is the competitor to the RS3. Not the M3.
of course M3 should be better they are not in the same class
Unpopular Opinion: pre-facelift was the best car design audi has ever done!
8v was 😉
8V dude
8v still better ;)
no, R5,V8 and V10 are the best
8v was a shit crate, I had one for a year. Poor driving position, didn't handle, interior dated and looked too soft. Current RS3 8Y, which I have, better in every single department.
@@luciussander8217but looks and sounds no where as good
Wish they werent so damn boring looking
If you find this boring looking, my friend, you need a proper pair of glasses :)
