RS Q3 Sportback edition 10 years limited to 555 vehicles only globally

Limited to just 555 vehicles produced worldwide, the RS Q3 Sportback edition 10 years is a formidable vehicle from Audi Sport produced to commemorate a decade since the first Q model joined the coveted RS ranks. Its five-cylinder, 2.5-litre TFSI powerplant with its distinctive engine note produces a massive 294kW of power between 5850 and 7000rpm with maximum torque of 480Nm available from 1950rpm right through to 5850rpm. Mated to a seven-speed S tronic transmission and with power down to all four wheels via Audi’s revolutionary quattro system, that translates to a lightening 0 to 100km/h sprint of just 4.5 seconds.

Riding on bespoke 21-inch Audi Sport wheels, with huge brake callipers finished in high-gloss black, the edition 10 years has a powerful visual presence to match its performance. Its black exterior styling package includes window trims, badging and door mirror caps all finished in black, while the Matrix LED headlights also feature smoked highlights in keeping with the dark theme.

Inside too exclusive features abound, from the multi-function wheel in Alcantara to matt carbon inlay and black Dinamica elements. The special lightweight RS front bucket seats feature one-piece backs, with the back of the front seats beautifully finished in matt carbon for maximum weight saving, while their combination of Dinamica and fine Nappa leather with honeycomb pattern features subtle copper-coloured stitching to further set them apart.

State-of-the-art technology and infotainment go without saying, from the Audi virtual cockpit and MMI navigation plus, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay to the sublime 680 watt Sonos 3D sound system.
